Martial Simon channels Celine on summery slice of Tropical House

 

Taking on a Celine song is no small feat, but NYC-based producer Martial Simon is not one to shy from a challenge, delivering ‘That’s The Way It Is’, a delicious slice of Tropical/Pop-House just in time for the summer season.

 

With the topline redone but still retaining the Dion-esque wallop of vocal power, Simon brings in all the orchestral house elements that make for a tidy hit: warm piano, rhythmic claps, driving percussion, all building up towards the ‘hands-in-the-air’ drop. Fully expect to see this one all over the shop: festivals, beach clubs, Spotify playlists – Simon has once again cleverly put together a track that hits all the right notes for multiple platforms and parties.

 

“I wanted to make a fun Spring/Summer cover and transform this classic tune into a vibey melody with a hint of tropical flavor,” Simon said. 

 

With over 8 million collective streams and 20+ million TikTok views from tracks like ‘High In July’, ‘Don’t You Forget About Me’, and ‘Lost’, the GET SET head honcho’s profile is truly beginning to soar. ‘Where My Girls At’ took him out of the States and into UK waters, featured on BBC Radio 1’s Dance Anthems and landing at #1 on the Beatport Dance Electro Pop chart, and ‘Red Flags’ made its way to #9 on the UK official pop chart.
