First-gen English dubstep producer Skream has remixed the Smiths - spin.com

Hear Skream Gently Remix the Smiths' 'This Charming Man' - SPIN

In sharing his eerie revision of the 1983 classic "This Charming Man" to SoundCloud, the man born Oliver Jones wrote, "This isn't a dance track nor really a electronic track.... Just a piece of music I'm really happy with." Therein, Morrissey's voice echoes atop windy atmosphere, clanging keys, and a heartbeat pulse. Skream hasn't released a proper album since 2010's Outside the Box, but he did make SPIN's Trend of the Year for embracing disco-kissed dance-pop flare on his "Rollercoaster" single. Oh, and he also apologized in advance for all of the anti-piracy tags.

Thanks for posting MORRIZSEY! Just gave it a listen ...... holds your interest but then again I have always liked Moz's voice which is what dominates this slow mix. Was waiting for a electro dub step beat (like the group Knife Party) to finally break out but never happened. Well done .

this is causing quite a splash on social media

he said TCM went down that well at his gig last night he played it twice. nice of the smiths to get some more interest and a new interpretation but the mix itself isn't up to much.

needed more marr

great tribute to 30 years the Smiths, like it or not, give it a listen

Hope many will follow to tribute 30 years Manchester Legendary band The Smiths


'and they say he's mentall'.... wrote a couple of times that Massive Attack or Tricky would do a single or more song with Morrissey, I think Marr would be in for it...

This is depressing. the only thing that could be more depressing is finding out David Guetta has remixed The Queen Is Dead LP.
