We all have those songs that we don’t really care for…but there is that ONE remix that makes the original song sound like crap! Here is a GREAT example… I Took “AZEALIA BANKS-212” AND Sandro Silva & Quintino-Epic (Original Mix)" & THIS WAS THE FREAKIN OUTCOME !
Every time I listen to it,I feel like THIS would’ve made the song a TOTAL hit,everything hits correctly and it bounces… What songs can you think of where the remix TOTALLY smashes the original.
Here Are More Examples: Kid Cudi-Day’N’Night(Crookers Remix) M.I.A.-Bad Girls(DJ Smerk Strange Clouds Mash) Does It Offend You Yeah - We are Rockstars (Cold Blank Remix) Dj Antention-Rapid Fire(F.O.O.L remix) <<< Awhhh MAHH Jesus!! LOL
If he’s not trying to get listens for his mash-up, I don’t get at all what this thread is supposed to be about. What difference does it make, if a tune is an “Original Mix” or a “[insertartistofchoice] Remix”? It has no influence whatsoever on my opinion of any given track. I judge them individually and couldn’t care less if it’s the original that I like or a remix.
Maybe someone who understands could explain it to me. In the meantime a remix that I like better than the original mix.
Your mashup sounds like one of the most over-compressed things I’ve ever heard. Censoring on a song like that is just pointless. The original song IS a total hit.
but when someone mentions a cover that is better than the original I cant help to think of Johnny Cash’s version of “Hurt”. Trent Reznor of NIN even said that, “Having Johnny Cash, one of the greatest singer-songwriters of all time, want to cover your song, that’s something that matters to me. It’s not so much what other people think but the honour that this guy felt it was worthy of interpreting.”
+1. I’d have to dig for the quote, but I’m pretty sure Trent even said something along the lines of “that song belongs to Johnny now”. That song is hauntingly beautiful.
