How Mike Posner’s I Took A Pill In Ibiza was transformed into a worldwide hit by Seeb
Originally released in July 2015, it wasn’t until Seeb got their hands on Mike Posner’s “I Took A Pill In Ibiza” months later that it became a worldwide hit.But how did the Norwegian duo, comprising of Simen Eriksrud and Espen Berg, manage to transform the acoustic original into an atmospheric dance floor smash? “We got it from Island Records,” they told OfficialCharts.com. “It was really slow and we only listened to the vocals on it.
“Our friend Matt sent us the multitrack of Mike’s new EP and we picked Ibiza right away. Such a brilliant lyric and melody but it needed a new soundscape to be a hit.”
