In 2015, Todd Terje put out what anyone with a working pair of ears knows is the definitive edit of 'Jolene' by Dolly Parton. Fast forward to now, and we have a new rework from Destructo, which is... ok. There are lovely quiet moments, but in the louder ones, the bassline swallows everything up. There is also a really unnecessary 'banging house' breakdown in the middle of it that irks me. I've nothing against Destructo. He has a fantastic track out at the moment called 'Shine On' that you should listen to. But this remix just doesn't float my boat.
