The xx - Hot Like Fire (BeazyTymes Remix)

There’s no doubt British dream-pop trio The xx has influenced a generation infatuated with spacey samples and syncopated drum patterns. With the assistance of the internet, fledgling producers can now share their own iterations, as seen here by 17-year old Chicago producer BeazyTymes. While The xx has done a beautiful job in editing Aaliyah’s “Hot Like Fire,” BreazyTymes adds his own filter of trap-inspired skitter-beat alongside the humble, airy sounds from the original. Finding the right balance between the use of emotive vocals and engaging subs, here’s another accolade joining the flock of remixes available. Enjoy.
