This spring, British electronic star Jamie xx earned tons of buzz with his album In Colour, and now his track "I Know There's Gonna Be (Good Times)" has gotten the remix treatment courtesy of British hip-hop artist Skepta.

The remix isn't too radical of a departure from the sun-dazzled, tropical-tinged vibe of the original. That being said, Skepta changes the beat, speeds it up significantly, and adds a rapped verse, meaning that this the mood is more jittery here than on the album version.

It premiered on OVO Sound Radio on Apple Music's Beats 1 station. Hear the remix, with all of its obnoxious OVO audio tags, below.
