No, I hate it when they do that. If I like the song, then it just sounds wrong when they mess with it, and if I don't like the song ... I still don't like the song. No point in remixing. |

Oh, yes!
Do you like songs that have been remixed? |

April Ryan is my friend,
Every sorrow she can mend.
When i visit her dark realm,
Does it simply overwhelm.
When done right, a remix can be many times better than the original piece. Even if it's just as good as the original piece, it still makes it successful if the original was enjoyable to begin with. |

I agree with Invader. There are some songs out there shitty production. Get Retarded, by Canibus is a great example. The lyrics are 10/10, but the beat itself blows. I heard another version of it where the only thing that was changed was the beat, and it sounded epic. I wish i could find them to link, but just take my word for it. |

fantastic example. I would post some Celldweller stuff, but this shows my thoughts well enough |

Depends on how the original sounded. If the original was okay, but not necessarily great, then more often than not, remixes will sound better: |

"Take atheism, for example. Not a religion? Their pseudo-dogmatic will to convert others to their system of beliefs is eerily reminiscent of the very behavior they criticize in the religious."
I listen to the radio all almost 24/7. I hate it when they have those nights that they broadcast from a club and all you hear is non-stop remixed songs. I normally turn off the radio and plug my ipod into my iHome. |

Daft Punk did a lot of remixing and got remixed themselves. |

I really can't say I don't. Most of the time, I enjoy remixes, because it's a new take on a familiar song. Sometimes you get remixes that aren't really worth listening to, but some are pretty good. |

DV Dictionary. / Verious: a definition. /
I'm not on DV much these days, but I'll try to toss a cool dream or two into my DJ.
I was going to do the exact same thing that Invader did to illustrate my point, but he did it for me |

Fuck it moron, snortin oxycontin, wearin cotton,
Oxymoron like buff faggots playin sissy dykes
