Rolling In The Deep (edits)

Recently turned 23 year young Adele is without a doubt one of the best singers & songwriters of our generation. Say what you will, but girl can hold it down better than anyone I've ever seen live. Not only does she blow her audiences away (whether it be in sold out arenas or tiny cd shops with minimal accompaniment, as seen here), but she also proves just how deadly powerful the fusion of a great voice & dickhead ex-boyfriend can really be.

The first big (and still to this day, my favourite) "Rolling In The Deep" remix to surface was Jamie xx's, back about 5 months ago. The remix garnered so much attention that virtually every remix since has really been an edit OF the Jamie xx version. Below are my two such favourites - one housey, the other on the bashment tip.

Brandy x Fantastic Mr. Fox

I've been rinsing this joint like crazy. The always fantastic Fantastic Mr. Fox comes through with another quality edit.

Glass Actor

Glass Actor appeared on the map a mere 8 months ago. Kinda baffled that people aren't all over this shit - the production is superb. If not for the depth, then at least for his (trend mocking) funny track genre categorizations (ie "Sensitive Thug Trance Future Reggeaton"). It comes as no surprise that Glass Actor is actually Greg Bowler, or as most people know him, 1/2 of Acid Girls. One would expect great production from someone who fashions these gems under their original moniker.

Groove Theory x George FitzGerald

Best Groove Theory edit I have ever heard. After 9 long months of soundcloud hype, UK's George FitzGerald finally made his stellar touch-up available for download last month. Seems 13,000+ others were patiently waiting for it too...
