We all know Chet Faker’s hit “1988” that has over 5 million streams on Soundcloud, as well as a plethora of remixes from various artists, but recently the hit had new life breathed into it with Cloudchord’s (formerly known as D.V.S.*) remix of the song. The original track has extremely laidback vibes that intertwine harmoniously with the vocals. Derek VanScoten stays true to the songs roots, but adds a whole new energy and feel to the piece.

Slightly upping the tempo and adding intricate synths and guitars, he entirely revamps "1988" and turns the song into a creation all his own. With years of experience and teaching in the musical industry that clearly show in each of his works, we are excited to see what the future holds for this incredibly talented producer who already has made quiet the outstanding name for himself.
