The Chainsmokers – Selfie (Botnek Remix)
by: Dylan Farella
Jun 14, 2014
Yet again, Botnek finds a way to troll a popular song while taking it to unseen heights. First, their warp on “Animals” revived the hit to become an in-demand staple. Next on the duo’s radar: “Selfie.” Speaking with Billboard, The Chainsmokers said to have “predicted that eventually it would become one of the most annoying songs ever,” and began listing potential remixers from that moment, with Botnek topping the list. The lyrics that have been heard around the world this year have been swapped for jingles such as “but first, shut the f*ck up” and “let me take another, f*ck no,” before Botnek turns pop culture’s favorite tune into a frenetic blaze of their signature antics.
