It's no secret that we're massive fans of Kaytranada, with the Canadian funk king soundtracking much of the past few years with his unbeatable funk-house sound - a sound most notably demonstrated on his acclaimed, guest-heavy debut 99.9% last year. Since the release of his debut album Kaytranada has been anything but quiet, releasing a whole new mixtape entitled 0.001%, collaborating with Australia's own Nick Murphy, Goldlink and Mary J Blige, while also releasing remixes for Nao, Chance The Rapper and more. His latest remix sees him rework Gorillaz's Strobelite - one of the many tracks from their sprawling, 2017 record Humanz - transforming the single's slick feel into a more soulful one, crafting a funk-infused hip-hop production which grooves underneath the single's original vocals. Check out the remix below.
