Thomas Cade , a young producer who splits his time between Toronto, Canada, and London, UK, went to work on Humans’ “De Ciel” and came up with this tough remix.

At this point in time, “dubstep” is a dirty word for a lot of folks. Nevertheless, Cade seems to have few qualms with respect to integrating certain distinctive elements of the style into his sound on this cut. Rhythmically, the track is driven by a menacing half-step groove with a big reverberant snare on the ’3′ and warm synths that pulsate with side-chain compression. When the soulful vocal hook from “De Ciel” kicks in around 1:31, I find myself squinting and raising my trigger finger high.

If you are in B.C. this weekend, you can catch Humans performing at Bass Coast in Merritt.
