FEATURING MAXI MERAKI REMIX & NEW CLUB EDIT
July 12, 2024 (Los Angeles, CA) — Today Grammy-winning live electronic trio RÜFÜS DU SOL have shared the official remix package for their new single “Music is Better”, which includes a club version along with a remix by Belgian producer/DJ Maxi Meraki, via Rose Avenue/Warner Records. Listen HERE.
“Music is Better Remixed” follows the band’s tradition of honoring their dance roots with remixes designed for clubland. Over the years, their hit singles have seen official remixes from the likes of Solomun, Adriatique, Anyma, Adam Port, Carlita and more.
“Music is Better Remixed” expands on the euphoric nature of the original while binding the danceable rhythms that capture the iridescent movements of RÜFÜS’ bespoke DJ sets. Alongside an extended club edit from the group, the package is complemented by a melodic techno remix provided by Maxi Meraki. Maintaining the uplifting spirit of the original, Mekari’s remix extends “Music is Better” into a near 7-minutes of crescendoing synths and driving bass lines.
In the three years since Surrender was released, RÜFÜS DU SOL won a Grammy for Best Dance/Electronic Recording in 2022 for lead single “Alive,” were twice-nominated the following year for Best Dance/Electronic Album and earned their fifth ARIA award in Australia. The band circled the globe appearing at festivals across Europe and South America, and brought Surrender to the stages of iconic North American venues like New York’s Forest Hills Stadium, Denver’s Red Rocks Amphitheatre, and Los Angeles’ Hollywood Bowl. The band also launched their boutique Sundream Festival, which held its second edition in San José del Cabo in 2023.
“Music is Better Remixed” arrives ahead of RÜFÜS DU SOL’s only live show this year, headlining Portola Festival in San Francisco on September 28.
