Yesterday Fortunes released a fresh as all hell remix of Penthouse & Maribelle's electronic R&B track "About You." They put a tasty spin on the original, adding a luscious verse and a jumpy, twisted beat.In celebration of the release we asked Fortunes and Maribelle to pull together some of their favourite remixes. From Kaytranada's classic Janet rework, to Mall Grab's warped Alicia Keys sample, here are Fortunes and Maribelle's top 10 remixes (in no particular order).M: Janet Jackson is my favourite artist of all time and "If" is one of her best songs. This was one of the first big remixes on Soundcloud, it's awesome to see how far Kaytranada has come since this first dropped.M: I love the new scale throwback feel that Midas Hutch always delivers. He is one of my favourite producers at the moment, I'm too blessed to be work with him.F: Dopest drop. Refs does some justice to the original. Srsly makes me dance so hard.F: Throwback!! Omg was actually obsessed with this at school.M: Love these early R&B remixes that basically reworked a whole song with new verses and feature artists. This was the kind of thing I wanted to emulate when I approached Fortunes to remix "About You."F: This song just so reminds me of my friends birthday party in the backyard. This is version is way funner and better to dance to.F: Obvs Kaytranada.M: I write predominantly with Djemba Djemba who has produced for everyone from Madonna to Sia to Bieber. His remixes are always fire, this Green Gardens remix is a couple years old now but still goes hard.F: Alicia is a fave. So sexy this one. Plus that video.F: My sister totally had this on a mix CD that was going around the school. Thnku lime wire! Never even heard the original for so long. Also chingaling yes please.
