One month after Armin van Buuren<\/a> debuted his remix of Van Halen\u2019s \u201cJump\u201d at Ultra Music Fest<\/a> with a little onstage help from David Lee Roth<\/a>, the track is now available to stream. The Dutch trance DJ\u2019s new take starts sparse with a slow-building rhythm and Roth\u2019s lyrics before exploding into Eddie Van Halen<\/a>\u2019s iconic synth riff. He made it over further with strong, danceable beats, a \u201cJump \u2026 jump \u2026 jump\u201d breakdown and a little fade-in, in place of the original\u2019s guitar solo. Van Buuren will be performing the track again Friday night in Las Vegas on the first day of Electric Daisy Carnival.<\/p>\n

Van Buuren recently told Rolling Stone<\/a><\/em> he began tinkering with the remix when a friend of his offered him the stems to the original song. \u201cI knew the song already as a kid,\u201d he said. \u201cI think I was six years old when the track was a Number One hit everywhere. I was just eager to have the stems, because I always thought, \u2018What if you could have the energy of that song from 1982 and transfer it to 2019?’\u201d He made a mix and sent it to Van Halen and was surprised to hear words of praise back from Roth. \u201cIt\u2019s the first step toward world peace if we can do it,\u201d the singer said in the interview.<\/p>\n

Roth also opened up in the chat about how he\u2019s been obsessed with dance music for as long as he could remember. \u201cIt\u2019s the reason Eddie Van Halen and I have had so much friction over these decades,\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s the only music I listen to.\u201d<\/p>\n

At the time, before it had come out, Rolling Stone<\/em> asked the singer to describe the song and got a purposely oblique answer: \u201cSure, it\u2019s like the first time you drove past the pyramids,\u201d he said. \u201cRemember that feeling?\u201d Now people can gauge that feeling for themselves.<\/p>\n
