LIOHN

<a href="/profile/KanyeWest" class="text-word" target="_blank" >Kanye West</a>&#8217;s a capella track &#8220;I Love Kanye&#8221; inspired numerous remixes in the immediate aftermath of The Life of Pablo&#8216;s release. Though he&#8217;s a bit late to the party, rising Swedish producer LIOHN may have the best remix yet, and he debuts it today in a HNHH premiere.
LIOHN&#8217;s remix, entitled &#8220;LongLiveYeezy,&#8221; incorporates fluttering synths and contortionist 808s and distorts and warps Kanye&#8217;s vocals in a production style reminiscent of Kanye himself.
&#8220;Yes, &#8216;I Love Kanye&#8217; is the only a capella track which makes it the easiest one to use, but honestly I just love the meaning behind it,&#8221; LIOHN explains. &#8220;I interpreted it as a &#8216;rant&#8217; that kind of switches directions and emotions constantly, and that&#8217;s why I have those autotuned breakdowns and distorted drops to give it the dynamics the vocals deserved.&#8221;
Kanye would be proud. If you want to hear more from LIOHN, his <a href="https://soundcloud.com/liohn/major-lazer-be-together-liohn-remix" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">remix of Major Lazer&#8217;s &#8220;Be Together&#8221;</a> has garnered nearly 1.5 million SoundCloud plays in a month.
