The 15 Best Remixes of Future's "Move That Dope"

Ever since SoundCloud started enacting their plan to get properly paid by these major labels, the remix game has been kind of crazy. The Wild West days of unofficial bootlegs has been stifled, and we're not mad at the producers. It's hard to know which popular track will end up getting your SoundCloud account ganked. That said, the summer of 2014 has seen a few rap tracks getting the royal remix treatment, and Future's "Move That Dope" has been one that's been heavy in remix rotation. There's a lot going on in this track, from the lyrical slaughter of Pusha T's verse to Pharrell's surprising appearance to that infectious hook. There was a lot to play with on that track, and producers had a gang of fun with it.

Here are 15 fire takes on Future's biggest single of 2014 (so far), presented to you before SoundCloud (or some industry bigwig) pulls the plug and they all get sucked down the drain.

Pyramid Scheme gets kudos for throwing some big room flavor onto "Move That Dope"—it might not have been expected, but it should definitely be applauded.

Yung Lemon, you win for giving "Move That Dope" some quirky melodies while allowing it to still maintain a hungry steeze about it. The club journies this one takes knock, but we have a feeling some folks might be turned off if they want a little variation.

The CRIMES! flex is all about shattering windows, it seems, and while "Move That Dope" is all about the crippling trap appeal, CRIMES! found a way to turn things up another notch, giving this tune a tremendously epic bassline and otherworldly appeal.

The Buffalo-based SwaggleRock crew let their personal bootleg loose, and we're glad. It contains all kinds of turn up, and really makes it a point to really bounce the track off of itself. If you wanted to surprise the crowd with a jamming VIP of Future's gem, this would be the version.

Jersey club takes on "Move That Dope" were kind of necessary, and NJ-based DJ Slim took it upon himself to throw hella gunshots at "Move That Dope," "flipping" everything with his spastic take.

Bird Peterson decided to bring the muted horns out, making "Move That Dope' feel even bigger than it already ways. You also have to love that he kept it kind of lowkey, giving the beat enough to live on its own without turning it into some bombastic flex, overpowering what we're here for (you know, blazing lines).

The crispy drums on this one make it work. Sounds almost like an interlude, full of jazzy feels and trap-focused drums. All kinds of laidback Cadillac appeal throughout C. Justice's take.

That "future juug" sound has been on properly cultivated on the low, blending those sadboy bass vibes with a rap appeal, and Ziploc Holmes (great name, btw) turned "Move That Dope" into a wavy future-vibing ride through the hood. Something to rock to while bouncing in the whip, trust.

While I personally am not sure what this "g-house" craze is about (you'd think that house producers just discovered hip-hop, given the way some EDM outlets talk), I actually like seeing producers falling back on the sound. Gives me more of a reason to tweet about tunes needing takes. Surprisingly, this Toronto-based duo gives "Move That Dope" a sonic overhaul that keeps the aggression of the original but channels it over some intergalactic bounce.

The Cartel Club has been a big part of the Jersey club scene, and the homey K Millz has been slowly cultivating a batch of Jersey mixes that will leave your head spinning. There's something in this "Move That Dope" remix that feels like all kinds of fury—this is the sound of the police raid, where it's hella dark in the traphouse, with nothing but police spotlights and sirens lighting the dark hallways.

This feels like something Lunice would get hype off of. Key Wane figured out a way to keep the trap happy while allowing the somber, emotive chords to creep in. Sleeper hit for you slowpokes out there, trust. And his prowess is paying off—you saw he recently produced some material for Big Sean, right?

If ATL's HPNTK is known for anything, it's for massive tunes with a hip-hop swagger. There's a reason he was a part of the HOODLUM clique, who spent their time throwing rap tracks in the bass music grinder. His "Move That Dope" rework is nothing nice—it's one of those eerie kids lurking in the slums, waiting to hit a lick before the sun comes out. HPNTK made sure to keep all of the rhymes in place, giving the MCs room to breathe over that monster of an instrumental.

It's been interesting to see how much love R3ll (fka DJ Rell) has been getting as of late. His remix game is crazy, and ever since swapping the "e" for a "3," he's been getting a number of big looks. Before that shift went down, he linked with Lambo to "move that dope" in a Jersey club mindstate, looping the infectious hook and Pharrell's rhymes over a thunderous club-centered take. Loving the throwback melody, channeling the '90s house sounds while keeping the rest of the tune in the now.

One thing the TEKLIFE crew is good for is their takes on rap tracks, and it's dope to see DJs Taye and Manny putting that hyperactive footwork spin on "Move That Dope." Instead of sticking to the script, this duo singles out particularly fly lines and turn them into mini-anthems. Those one-liners, whether its the way they're spit or the way they flow over the beat, end up getting their own time to shine over some jazzy keys and double-time drums. Fierce.

It's almost not fair when EPROM is on his dean. We know that Future's hit was chock full of trap delight, from the actual instrumental to the trap house-referencing lyrics. EPROM found a way to turn that base into BASS with a subwoofer-merking remix that focuses on the hook, the "push it" chant, and Pusha T's Wire-ready escapades. He didn't abandon the original's groove, but injected some fierce vibes into the tune, making it work for the heads trying to go dumb in their whips.
