In honor of legendary composer Ludwig van Beethoven, Deezer has recruited the help of 14 dance music acts to remix some of the pioneering pianist’s most influential works. Ahead of its release later this week, EDM.com has teamed up with the streaming service to offer an early look at one of the upcoming compilation’s highlights from none other than Steve Aoki. For his remix, the Dim Mak founder took on Beethoven’s “Piano Sonata No. 8,” also known as “Sonata Pathétique.” Renamed “The Morning Routine,” Aoki’s remix begins with the signature piano largely untouched. Gradually, he stirs in some synth elements and adds frenetic drums before laying down a smooth house drop with soulful vocal samples. For those unfamiliar...
