If you know any branch of EDM, you know Steve Aoki, and have heard his numerous remixes of popular artists. The LA based and world-renowned DJ and producer released his remix of Bonnie McKee’s “American Girl” in time for pre-Halloween weekend and festivities. Here, Aoki took the pop track, toned down the melody, and added some serious drops beneath the candy-eyed and vibrant haired McKee’s sugarcoated vocals. After all, Aoki was a 2012 EDM Effect Woodie nominee, so you know that he can handle all the bells and whistles of any remix, and more than adequately bring out the edge in an appropriately shiny Los Angeles pop song. The result is a much grittier pop anthem that is still bright with the elements of the California sunshine that it was written with.
