Purple Disco Machine Releases Iconic Remix for The Rolling Stones’ Single ‘Mess It Up’

Classic rock and electronic dance music have converged as The Rolling Stones share a remix of “Mess It Up” by Purple Disco Machine.

The Rolling Stones came together over 60 years ago and have had an undeniable impact on music, especially rock. The band’s 26th American studio album, ‘Hackney Diamonds,’ promptly hit number one in 19 countries and has sold over 500 million copies since its release in October. Now, Purple Disco Machine has injected the album’s seventh track, “Mess It Up,” with his upbeat, groovy disco. 

“Mess It Up” has the classic Stones’ sound with its gritty, blues-rock style. Purple Disco Machine has transformed the song by layering Jagger’s iconic vocals on top of a funky beat, a prominent piano, and synthesizers. The remix has brought two styles of music together in a way that both communities can dance to.
