Junior Sanchez, Drake & DANR. Some ingredients were just meant to mix and make up the most perfect dish.

Here’s what DANR has to say:

“ One thing ’bout music, when it hits you feel no pain”

How would you take Drake’s punch lines in Over to the next level? How do you make them into a Club anthem? Junior Sanchez answers both of these concerns in his weapon edit. Even though a few have already tried their hand at this type of remix, Junior is finally the first to remix Drake properly.

He leaves the stanzas untouched and doesn’t sacrifice any of the clever verses, but instead he works his way around them by incorporating them in the midst of his signature hard and fast electro beats. The contrast of the two speeds has you fist pumping one minute  & grinding the next.

At the end of the verse he chops, loops and pitches the vocals back to rave speed. It happens to fast that you don’t have time to wrap your head around what just happened because you already lost all sense of control. The edit is unexpected, surprising, extremely gratifying, and, in Junior’s own words, its fucking retarded.
