What Do You Mean (Convex Remix)
We’re just gonna come right out and say it – it takes a whole helluva lot for us to even open up an email with the Biebs in the subject line, and even more for us to actually click the Soundcloud link. If the track somehow finds its way to our ears through those two safeguards, it has to be truly spectacular for us to post it. Well, that’s exactly what happened when pressed play on this incredibly delicious remix from 22-year old Producer/DJ Convex.
Originally from Hawaii, this current Los Angeles resident has put an impressive spin on “What Do You Mean,” giving it a gorgeous future persona. Playing to Bieber’s strengths (yes, we’ll admit he has some), Convex highlights the vocals, seemingly making them even more silky and seductive before. Couple those in with rolling clicks, stunning synths, and haunting tweaked background vocals, and this interpretation has left us wonderfully stunned.
This tune follows a string of successes for this youngster, including being named the 2014 EDC LV Discovery Project Winner, playing at Nocturnal Wonderland, and garnering support from artists like Destructo, Zeds Dead, and Wax Motif.
If you want to catch him live, you can do so at the upcoming Insomniac event, Escape this Halloween, on October 30th
