I am always very particular whenever it comes to any kind of rendition of Sam Cooke's classic "A Change is Gonna Come". The song carries so much significance. In 2007, it was selected for preservation in the Library of Congress, so ya’ll know when I say you gotta be real careful with this track.

But I must say, Tunisian producer Easy Sweep, has done a fantastic job on this. It’s got to be one of my faves.

The track simply focuses on the following  chorus:

It's been a long time coming

But I know a change is gonna come, oh yes it will

While cutting, synthesizing and looping the chorus, Easy Sweep still manages to preserve the core - the feel and soul of the legendary Sam Cooke. Cooke's struggle and sense of hope is still felt in this remix. In many other remixes this is sadly is often lost.

It’s pretty impressive the way Easy Sweep carefully raises the thickness of the song’s texture by adding multiple layers to its composition. Very well done my friend.

Happy Monday guys!
