Few songs have stood the test of time quite like A-Ha’s “Take On Me.” From its iconic synth melodies to its unforgettable animated music video, the 1985 hit has been a staple of 80s pop culture. Fast forward to today, and Diogo Costa, an emerging talent in the electronic music scene, has breathed new life into this classic with his fresh and exciting remix.

Costa’s remix of “Take On Me” is a bold and imaginative reinterpretation of the original, balancing reverence for its classic elements with his distinct modern touch. He doesn’t simply update the track; he reimagines it, pulling apart its pieces and carefully weaving them into a new sonic tapestry. The drums are clean and punchy, with a soft, side-chained kick that gives the track its pulsating momentum without overwhelming the mix. The use of syncopated hi-hats and subtle percussive elements adds a layer of complexity, ensuring the track maintains an infectious energy throughout. Where Costa truly excels in this remix is his masterful use of synthesizers. He retains the instantly recognizable synth riff of the original but shifts its tonality. The main hook is less sharp, with a more mellow, slightly detuned sound, which gives it a dreamy and introspective quality.

Diogo Costa’s remix of “Take On Me” is a stunning tribute to one of pop music’s most enduring hits. By blending nostalgic elements with modern production, Costa has created a track that feels fresh and relevant while still honoring the spirit of the original. It’s a remix that can appeal to longtime fans of A-Ha as well as newcomers to the electronic music scene, bridging the gap between past and present in a truly innovative way. With its carefully crafted sound design, impeccable production quality, and respect for its source material, this remix showcases Costa’s talent as a producer and his ability to reimagine classics in a way that feels both timeless and contemporary.
