The Chainsmokers feat. Daya – Don’t Let Me Down (Riggi & Piros Remix)
The Chainsmokers have gotten themselves a hit that will see plenty of remixes in their collaboration with Daya. “Don’t Let Me Down” has a catchy vocal, and that plays perfectly into the remix created by American duo Riggi & Piros. They sped the tempo up on this rework, opting to ditch the slower feel for an uptempo house vibe. The breakdown remains largely untouched, save for a tempo change. The breakdown ends with a slick effect where the pitch slowly dives down. The tempo is reduced as well, but slowly builds its way all the way back up to the original BPM. As the tempo climbs back, Riggi & Piros introduce a fantastic melody into the sound. Their synth choice is light, but loud at the same time. A simple drum fill is all the separates the breakdown from the drop, and the drop is unreal. It combines a smooth chord progression with an excellent bassline to create a killer progressive remix. It only uses one verse, but Riggi & Piros did a fantastic job with this remix.
