Some singers don’t just light up a room when they sing, they move an entire arena. Emma Hewitt is one of them. Through the songs of her debut album ‘Burn The Sky Down’, the Australian songstress strives to take the listener beyond the expected. And her new single release ‘Crucify' is no exception.

Warmed up by her ‘Colours’, ‘Rewind’,  ‘Foolish Boy’ and ‘Miss You Paradise’, it’s now the mysterious ‘Crucify’ that’s set to conquer the hearts of its listeners. An emotional yet powerful beat-ballad with sharp edges, sweeping violin and of course the characteristic voice of Emma to guide you through the dark hours. ‘Crucify’ doesn’t only come with a stunning original, but also brings a set of remixes. 

The official ‘Crucify’ remix contest brought an abundance of quality remixes. But the one that stood out most, was the Cold Rush remix. The Estonian duo of Erkki Abel and Robert Roost were named the winner, and for good reason. Their remix of ‘Crucify’ is driven by a dark, proggy depth, but also unfolds a warm, synthy break.

Ukrainian producer Zetandel provided a warming Chillout remix, lush and ethereal, while LA’s most wanted, Clinton vanSciver, cracks the code by turning ‘Crucify’ into an eclectic affair of electro-house, prog and sugar-sweet melody. 





Dimitri Kechagias review:  Armada Music reveals the winners of the remix contest for Emma Hewitt's fantastic album track Crucify. In its album form included in this bundle is a chill out breaks style inspiring track perfect for those moments that you want to calm your senses and hear some deep and meaningful lyrics as well that Emma sings in her own very personal and  fragile way. Clinton VanSciver Remix is what you can call as a modern EDM track that combines influences from wide spectrum of styles. He adds that prog house touch and even a bit of electro pop as well in order mainstream USA radio stations to love this. Cold Rush Remix is definitely a track that deserves to win as it respects the dark atmosphere of the original and delivers a magnificent proglifting trance version that particularly fans of Beat Service sound will adore it. Professional production from start to finish is an excellent way to introduce Cold Rush to a wider audience and maybe Armada headquarters to give him a chance to release his original material as well. Peak time cracker guaranteed. Last but not least Zetandel well known for awesome chill out productions takes part in the contest with a magical lounge chill out vision perfect to calm down after a heavy party night out! Emotionally charged  for sure.  Love IT
