Kanye West ft. Paul McCartney – Only One (IGLOOGHOST Remix) [Free Download]

We’ve all heard Kanye’s ballad/lullaby “Only One” by now – a somber song written with Paul McCartney to tell his daughter about his mom, his guardian angel.

The song is raw, almost unmastered, and left to be pure “as is”. It’s amazing how much radio play it has received despite it’s traditional soundscape compared to radio-pop music today…

However, IGLOOGHOST saw this minimalist song, exposed it, and ramped it up.

Starting off with chopped and skewed vox of Kanye “Tell Nori about me”, the song gradually pumps itself up with juke-styled beats.

Claps build it up and thumb pianos shimmer providing a brighter texture than normal simple synth work. When the flip happens at the 0:55 mark – something special happens.

The song “Only One” will never be the same again – and that’s a good thing. What we’re left with, is a non-stop adrenaline rush – the total opposite of what was naturally intended by Kanye; a true remix and a true re-envisioning of a future classic tune.

IGLOOGHOST is up and coming with an EP under his belt already and discussions on his Facebook page about a possible album coming soon. This is one to watch for sure!
