Well known for his high-energy performances and smashing anthems, Flux Pavilion is one of the greats in electronic dance music. In addition to being a producer, remixer and DJ, Flux is also a co-founder of Circus Records and can currently be seen touring North America with the Safe In Sound Festival.

The "Rebels Theme" remix is a marriage of perfection, the epic scope and sweep of the saga's theme song composed by Kevin Kiner with Flux Pavilion's devastating basslines, epic beats, and playful nature. Including classic Star Wars sound effects such as lasers, lightsabers and even the roar of a Wookiee, the tune entices the listener to rage all night, in a galaxy far far away…

Flux Pavilion adds, "It was an absolute honour to be a part of the new Star Wars project and working with Kevin Kiner's original score was a dream. I tried to take the piece to a place it might never have gone before and working alongside the team building the project has been inspiring, not just as an artist but also as a huge fan of the Star Wars universe. Long live the Republic!"

About Star Wars Rebels:
The story unfolds during a dark time when the evil Galactic Empire is tightening its grip of power on the galaxy. Imperial forces have occupied a remote planet and are ruining the lives of its people. The motley but clever crew of the starship Ghost -- cowboy Jedi Kanan, ace pilot Hera, street-smart teenager Ezra, the "muscle" Zeb, warrior firebrand Sabine, and cantankerous old astromech droid Chopper -- is among a select few who are brave enough to stand against the Empire. Together, they will face threatening new villains, encounter colorful adversaries, embark on thrilling adventures and become heroes with the power to ignite a rebellion.

"Star Wars Rebels" is created by Dave Filoni (Star Wars: The Clone Wars), Simon Kinberg (X-Men: Days of Future Past, Sherlock Holmes), and Carrie Beck. The Lucasfilm Animation production is also executive-produced by Filoni and Kinberg as well as Greg Weisman (Gargoyles).

The talented voice cast includes Freddie Prinze Jr. as Kanan, Vanessa Marshall as Hera, Steve Blum as Zeb, Tiya Sircar as Sabine, Taylor Gray as Ezra, David Oyelowo as Agent Kallus and Jason Isaacs as the Inquisitor.
