Tropical house, future house; call it what you want to call it; but this new sound has been steadily taking over the Electronic music scene for over a year now. Chicago’s own Autograf, a Trio of Artists and musicians, have been leading the charge of this sound in our great city. If you haven’t heard of them already (which I highly doubt) you’re in for a real treat.

Alesso has become a hit pumping machine since the release of “Calling (Loose my Mind)” in 2012.  His latest single “Cool” has not broken that trend, but in my opinion is not up to par with his previous work. Strong vocals have almost become the standard in his track and while Roy English delivers, while the music behind those vocals is caught in that dreaded no man’s land between EDM bangers and overly produced pop songs.  There is no doubt this will be a hit on a top 40 radio station.

In comes Autograf with this fresh remix. The song is slowed down to create a mellow feeling from start to finish. The funky guitar in the background of the entire track is probably my favorite sound.  When the lyrics stop and the music takes over you’ll be tempted to roll down your car windows (even in today’s 50 degree weather) and cruise.  If Alesso was searching for this tracks identity, Autograf has found it.  It’s been a long time since I liked a remix of an original this much more. Stop reading and feast your ears, I do warn you thought you might lose track of time as you journey through this track several times.
