Following the release of ‘Spotlight’ by Danish breakthrough producer, DJ and label manager S.A.M. featuring the striking vocal of Sarah Ikumu, Sam Divine now remixes the record adding an additional dimension to this future classic. Seasoned at working a club crowd, teasing the mix at her Miami Music Week shows and London’s Printworks, Sam brings in a driving beat and catchy melodic bass to work alongside the vivacious vocal. As one of Defected’s nearest and dearest, Sam’s remix further positions ‘Spotlight’ as one of the summer’s must-know records.
