Dolly Parton Announces New Destructo Remix of Jolene as her “Favorite Version” – [READ]

Fifty-time Award nominee and country singer, Dolly Parton, expressed her deep admiration for Destructo’s rendition of “Jolene.” The singer went on to say that it’s also her favorite version.

The country music legend’s comments provided the electronic music scene, which is often misunderstood by the general public, with a huge boost. Destructo’s version of the 1974 classic, which came out today, brings heartfelt vibes that both fans of country and house music can enjoy.

Of all the renditions of “Jolene,” Destructo’s is the most different in the way it chops Dolly Parton’s famous vocals in a deep house style. The brand new remix pays its respects to the original version by maintaining the tune’s famous guitar and emotional tone.

This unlikely crossover is reminiscent of ACRAZE’s remix of “Do It To It.” The four-on-the-floor house rendition of Cherish’s hit achieved rapid stardom over the summer.

Many crowned “Do It To It” the unofficial tune of the summer. Months later, it continues to make waves after receiving viral edits from other artists like ZEDD. We could see Destructo’s “Jolene” follow a similar trajectory.

When Destructo isn’t dropping artist-favorite remixes or touring, he can be found leading the North American branch of LiveStyle events. As the HARD Events founder, he knows a thing or two about great festivals.

Given the positive reception and Dolly Parton co-sign, we could see this remix taking festivals by storm during the coming months.
