Fiorious has called the remix “an inspiring eight-minute tour de force and the most bittersweet gift to all us”.
Ed Banger founder Pedro Winter aka Busy P said: “Zdar played me the remix while we were heading to the last gig we would ever played together. He knew he and Boombass had delivered a banging remix. The original song was already one the strongest the year and adding Cassius’ powerful groove, hypnotic drums and these unifying chords would make this remix an instant classic.”
