15 Party Pumping South Asian Remixes Of Mainstream Music
Warmer weather means parties and better music, and what better way to merge the East and West than with some upbeat, catchy remixes?
We bring you 15 remixes that might just be better than the originals.
1. "Sorry" — Justin Bieber (Maafi Bollywood Remix)
An even more upbeat take on Bieb's song and dance choreographed by Shereen Ladha, a professional dancer, choreographer and instructor based in Toronto, Canada.
2. "Work" — RIhanna (Bollywood Mix)
Riri's track worked in with some bhangra beats by UME Beats.
3. "Trophies" — Drake (Bollywood Edit)
A Bollywood makeover by Tesher Music gives this track some real flavour from The 6ix.
4. "Do It Again" (Pia Mia, Chris Brown Refix) — Zack Knight
Zack Knight's cover of island girl Pia Mia's song is short but hits the spot!
5. LMFAO vs RDB — Party Rock vs Sadi Gali (B-Star Mashup)
"Sadi Gali" is a classic track in Desi households, and this LMFAO version will definitely rock the party!
6. "Yeah" — Usher (Punjabi Remix)
This Usher track got a boost with some killer Punjabi tunes.
7. "Temperature" — Sean Paul
Temperatures will definitely rise on the dance floor with this Sean Paul mashup. It's a great track for getting a workout in as well!
8. "Lean On" — Diljit Dosanjh, Major Lazer, DJ FRENZY
The original got some heat for cultural appropriation, but add some Diljit Dosanjh and you've got the perfect dose of Punjabi tharka!
9. Billie Jean — Michael Jackson, Punjabi MC, Tigerstyle
The iconic "Billie Jean" track by MJ gets revisited and revamped with some serious tunes and added beats.
10. Ayo, Chittiyaan Kalaiyaan — Chris Brown vs. Jags Klimax
What do you get when you mash up Chris Brown with a family favourite track? The perfect song for jamming to at a wedding or summer get-together.
11. "How Deep Is Your Love" — Calvin Harris, Vidya Mashup Cover ft. Shankar Tucker
Vidya Fox is taking the world by storm with her covers and ability to seamlessly merge Eastern and Western music together.
12. "Come & Get It" — DJ Monte S, Bhangra Mix Ft. Selena Gomez, Harjeet Heera & Linkin Park
The original has some influence from South Asian music, but it's subtle. This amped-up remix will get the dance floor pumping in no time!
13. "Gangnam Style" (DESI MIX) — PSY
"Gangnam Style" is one song that nobody will ever forget, and this Bhangra version is just as good (if not better) than the PSY's original.
14. "Animals" — Martin Garrix Dhol Mix ft. Naitik Nagda
Two great styles of music mashed up into one great track, perfect for Navratri!
15. "Rudeboy" — Rihanna ft. Lomaticc, Sunny Brown, Baba Kahn- Rudeboy (Culture Shock Desihits Remix)
The boys from Culture Shock give Riri a little South Asian boost.
