I dont think the original even compares to Skreams remix.

Big up to him

Hope you are joking.

Don't really like the song too much anymore but massive props to Skream.

Big up.
nah i quite like the happier sounding electro bleeps n that in the original :lol:

still though, skream.. thats gotta be the biggest selling dubstep record ever? or not i dunno, however you look at it it's good news, fair play to the man.

nah i think la roux is allright actually, the skream remix is cool but it kind of drags on a bit and the drums sound like something out of a power ballad tune you'd hear in homebase.

still, big up skream again for this, i'd love a gold disc like that to show my acheivement!

As Tempa puts it, "Croydon's golden boy"!

I don't think this will be the last gold record either. Man is too sick.

Big respect each and every time SKREAM!

According to Moby, the best selling track on his new album is the one he's been giving out free for months already.

Interesting, huh?

(also, congrats to Skream)
