Dimitri Kechagias review: Ellie Goulding is the absolute anti-star that became the next big thing in the pop scene. With her witty and deep lyrics and her great really unique performance deserves all the support and the love she gets globally. Burn is another example of her amazing ability to bring the new fresh touch in the pop scene that seemed to stuck in a huge retro pop invasion. Burn is positive, optimistic and can bring people together to sing a long with raised hands in the air. The remix package is what it counts for the fellow hardworking djs. The one and only, the legend Tiesto is on remix duties and he does what he knows best. He takes the strongest elements of the original that is of course Ellie's vocals and that epic hands in the air melody and turns it into a prime time weapon with thumping beats, punchy basslines and synths that are so euphoric that can unite the whole globe of clubbers. Manhattan Clique remix is very euphoric too with super bouncy beats, uplifting piano chords and plenty of energy to keep you dancing for long. Citizen remix is the old school garage retro house version that is deeper, chunkier, with so much groove and huge dose of funkiness and playfulness as we say perfect for hot summer beach parties. The beloved Anjunabeats star Mat Zo is on board as well and he is as always mind boggling. His remix is following the sound of Easy with combination of tech/electro/house/breakbeat and even French/Daft Punk elements in it. Really creative version that proves that talented artists can really do whatever they wish without caring about styles. Don't ask what style is, cause its Mat Zo style. For those early morning chill moments Maths Time Joy remix will be the right and exact tune to cool things down uplifted and positive. Its officially number 1 at the UK Top 40 and we are so glad about it! Love IT!
