Snakehips ft. Zayn - Cruel (MXXWLL remix)

Popular Australian producer MXXWLL has remixed Snakehips and Zayn’s much talked-about collaboration, ‘Cruel’. Preserving the song’s original summery feel, the producer plays with chopped up samples of the original over a soft bassline for a future-facing take on the record.
 
Sydney producer MXXWLL is currently killing the electronic music scene in Australia right now with his live sequencing sessions ‘Friday Funk’ reaching over 45k views on Facebook. Drawing inspiration from Kaytranda and Pomo, his debut single ‘4 U’ is a groovy melody built upon soulful vocals and synthesised twinkling beats. Legendary Australian producer M-Phazes has shared his support for the artist claiming that he his 'the next big thing in Australia production’. MXXWLL is currently working on his debut EP and has a track collaboration with Deutsch Duke dropping this month.
