Not that it is a whole new trend, but EDM artists more and more are taking a lot of hip/hop influences into their work, especially when it comes to dubstep in the past couple of months. The blurring of the lines has become even more clear with Ocelot in the picture remixing Brooklyn rapper Theophilus London‘s “I Stand Alone”. The Music Ninja first featured Ocelot back in the day in a compilation of Muse remixes, since then Ocelot has been busy releasing both original and remixed tracks of Marina & The Diamonds and The Killers to name a few. This new iteration is most attractive because it is not the overbearing dubstep that usually is incorporated with hip/hop track. The entire song is deeply electronic but feels very smooth and organic, a trademark of Ocelot remixes.
