Dev Hynes Transforms Sia's "Chandelier"

Dev Hynes tries his hand with Sia's breakout smash "Chandelier," reworking the track into a darker, more minimal arrangement. This new concoction sheds the powerhouse vocal treatment of the original cut and finds Hynes taking over duties on the mic, delivering an ethereal vox with his own set of lyrics, revealing the deceptively dark anthem (as it jumps into the abyss of party-girl follies) for what it is as that viral hook whispers. Dissonant kalimba licks plague this wavy new cut, liberating it of it's pop-fortified shackles and unveiling a trap-less wonder of organic left-field funk. Dev Hynes' stripped-down remix of Sia's "Chandelier" is available below as a Spotify exclusive. Treat your case of the Monday's with a quick listen.
