On the only official remix of Calvin Harris and Clementine Douglas’ breezy Balearic single, “Blessings,” Max Styler takes the chart climber from day to night, refashioning its personality – suited for windows-down drives under the Ibiza sun – to one fit for its thumping clubs. Styler’s ever-taught touches temper the song’s bright dance/pop ebullience, trading radio-friendly progression for a peak-time structure ready to work overtime on the dance floor.
Between its tight groove, melodic flourishes, and low end that doesn’t just fill space but creates momentum, Styler’s take flexes his stylistic hallmarks while maintaining the original’s allure, offering a different but no less compelling perspective on “Blessings.” Listen below.
“Calvin has easily been one of my favorite producers for as long as I can remember, and undoubtedly one of the greatest producers of our lifetime. When he reached out to me to remix ‘Blessings,’ I stopped everything and put all of my attention into making something that felt special to me but still captured the essence of the original. This opportunity means the world,” he tweeted ahead of the remix's release.
While “Blessings” sits comfortably at No. 4 on the Beatport Top 100 and peaks as Calvin Harris’ top track on the Beatport store as of June 23, Styler’s take continues to ascend on the Top 100, clocking in at No. 21. Clearly, one blessing begets another.
