Whitney Houston’s first posthumous track just arrived via KygoMusic. Read more:
. Today, Norwegian DJ Kygo dropped his remix to Whitney’s cover of Steve Winwood’s 1986 hit “Higher Love.”
RCA Records and the late icon’s estate approached Kygo with the vocals and the prospect of a collaboration. Once the 27-year-old producer accepted, however, the estate was completely hands-off, giving Kygo the creative freedom to put his spin on the song. It’s not uncommon to see EDM artists remixing oldies. What is surprising—in the best way possible—is just how perfectly Houston’s voice works in a dance mix. You know a remix does its job when it feels like the original intent of the song.

Experience Whitney Houston and Kygo's Pleasant 'Higher Love'Y: Whitney Houston and Kygo, “Higher Love” - If you’re familiar with the oeuvres of both parties at hand, you know exactly what this cover of Steve Winwood’s 1986 No. 1 sounds like without even pressing play. But press play anyway because it’s nice. Kygo takes a vocal Houston cut during the I’m Your Baby Tonight sessions (her cover eventually was released as bonus track on the Japanese version of that album) and grafts it onto his signature tropical house style. The result transmogrifies the song considerably yet maintains its decided adult contemporary vibe, just in a new place and time. This song sounds like getting older, but, like doing so while wearing sunglasses and sipping craft cocktails. Not exactly transcendent stuff, but pleasant enough. —Rich Juzwiak
