Swedish House Mafia ft. John Martin – Save The World (The Remixes)

Say what you want about the original mix, but it is spectacular live. The Swedish House Mafia tailor made “Save The World” to appeal to the masses, and guess what? It worked. The remixes were released today and there is a little something in each one of them that can satisfy even the most hardcore of EDM fans. Let’s dive into these shall we?


Style of Eye & Carli (you might know them better as the Savage Skulls) blend the beautiful vocals of John Martin with a synth filled build up that leads you up to the 3:35 mark. If you like pulsating drops that do not overshadow any of the original vocals this is the track for you.

Alesso has arrived folks. Are we looking at a potential Avicii rival for progressive greatness? We think so. This is made for the big room, envision yourself flying to this remix.

Knife Party is comprised of Rob Swire and Gareth McGrillen of Pendulum. The remix gives you the most wobble and has the largest dubstep influence out of the package. The original mix was a very ‘elegant’ production, Knife Party injects a large dose of dirt in their remix. You may need a tetanus shot after listening.

We think the best term used to describe Third Party’s rendition is electrifying. Electro-house fans will love this. The distinctive drop reminds me of a Lazy Rich/Porter Robinson blend. Give it a go!

  1. Knife is big, but the transition from the build up to the drop isn’t special, I don’t know how people overlook the Third Party remix, it is amazing. I guarantee that I will be in every big DJ’s set throughout the summer festivals. It is what the Congorock Remix to One was for Save the World with an extra special progressive break before the second drop. In addition Third Party will be huge by the end of the summer, Duel and Release were pretty good, nothing amazing, this Save the World remix and their next release feel, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DWFRH1S6W-Y , will make Steve Angello very happy he signed them to Size.

  2. Style of Eye & Carli remix is by far the best one! Knife Party comes in second for me. Third Party and Alesso remixes aren’t anything special….I was expecting something a little more catchy and anthem-y from Alesso.

  3. It’s actually third party…they made a remix for this song too. I don’t know why DA didn’t include it, but it’s super epic. check it out. Knife party is correct too they made one too, but do not confuse them for third party.

  4. I think Alesso and Third Party are the best. But I feel that SHM are going to include Marcus Schossow’s remix in their live sets cause they have been including a few trance tracks in their sets. like Mat Zo’s new song and Arty’s too.
    great stuff guys!

  5. The Third Party Remix sounds like the Congorock Remix from SHM´s “One”. Listen!
    Alesso´s is the best imo.

  6. Style of Eye is okay, I enjoy Alesso’s more each time that I hear it, Knife Party is sick, and Third Party is okay but I don’t feel that it matches up to Congorock at all because it doesn’t incorporate much of the original song in the drop, something that Congorock did very well. Schossow is pretty cool but after listening to AN21 & Max Vangeli I want THAT one to come out
