Live Review: Sampha 'Happens' (Lucian Remix)

17 July 2014 | 11:15 pm | Darren Ng

New York beats maker Lucian remixes and swaps out the soulful bits of Sampha's 'Happens' for a finger snapping dazzle of a time.

When Sampha was picked to collaborate on 'Too Much' for the 'Nothing Was the Same' record of Drake's, the path to being the UK's next big thing has always been in his favour. Merit triumphs luck with his new track 'Happens' as the gentle giant on piano finds his way to our accepting hearts.

Up and coming New York producer Lucian has hopped on the bandwagon, with a clear agenda of creating a remix with total allure and dazzle enough to power up a storm. In adding the intricate synth parts and finger snapping beats to Sampha's honeyed vocals, Lucian has given new life to the song; giving hands and limbs to the soulful body in the middle.

The end result is a danceable number everyone could enjoy.
