The Chainsmokers are back in 2025 with a vibrant DnB remix for Royal Otis‘ track ‘Oysters In My Pocket.’ The duo retain the quirky charm of the original while amplifying its dancefloor potential with a dose of their signature sound mixed with drum and bass elements in the already catchy tune.
The Chainsmokers’ influence in the remix truly shines in the production. They’ve layered in a pulsating synth bassline that immediately grabs your attention. The drums are crisp and punchy, driving the track forward with a relentless energy. There’s a definite build-up throughout the song, creating anticipation for the drop, which, while not earth-shattering, is satisfyingly energetic and catchy. It’s a blend of their familiar melodic style with a fresh drum and bass twist, which works surprisingly well. They’ve masterfully retained the original’s indie pop sensibilities and transformed it into a club ready banger.
The Chainsmokers, comprised of Drew Taggart and Alex Pall, have continuously pushed the boundaries of music, seamlessly blending genres like pop, indie, electronic, alternative, and rock. Their groundbreaking approach has not only set cultural trends but also yielded chart-topping hits, a historic Las Vegas residency, and packed arena tours across countless continents. Drew’s dynamic vocals and instrumental skills combined with Alex’s virtuosic piano playing form the backbone of their deep musical acumen, evident in their string of Diamond-certified singles and GRAMMY®-winning tracks.
More recently, the Chainsmokers have announced a headline show at New York’s iconic open-air venue, The Brooklyn Mirage. Presented by Avant Gardner, On May 22, the culture-defining pair will bring their award winning production to one of the world’s most legendary stages, in its soon-to-be-revealed new format.
