CLAES ROSEN FINALLY UNVEILS VIRAL REMAKE OF MARVIN GAYE HIT ‘IF THIS WORLD WERE MINE’
Swedish-born producer and DJ Claes Rosen has finally released his long awaited take on “If This World Were Mine,” the Marvin Gaye classic from 1967’s United. Previously a bootleg, the track has been reborn for the streaming platforms, ready to see its popularity soar into the stratosphere once again.
First shared on YouTube seven years ago, the track steadily built a cult following, accumulating over 36 million views and cementing Rosen as a name to watch. After years of behind-the-scenes work to clear the track, it’s finally ready to step into the spotlight. This modern take on ‘If This World Were Mine’ answers the age-old question: what if Marvin Gaye made soulful house music? Melodic and emotional, the world that Rosen built around the track is one of serenity, thanks to its laid-back approach to its soundscape. His version balances reverence for Gaye’s iconic vocal with a fresh, emotional production—bridging the past and present in a way that feels both effortless and heartfelt.
Built for sunset parties, late night drives and everything in between, don’t be surprised to hear a resurgence in popularity of ‘If This World Were Mine’ in the coming months. Whether you’ve been a fan of this remake for years or are hearing it for the first time, it’s going to stick in your head no matter what.
From melodic house to UK garage, there’s not a genre that Claes Rosen can’t master whether in his solo work or part of duo L-WIZ. The Swedish producer has spent the better part of two decades honing his craft, leading to collaborations on big-scale commercial projects and curation of music for streaming giants Spotify.
