Cybernetika Posted March 20, 2005 Share Posted March 20, 2005 What is the worst Remix you've ever heard? I'm talking about a remix that destroyed everything about the original song and thats completely insulting the creator of the original... Psy is favored but any other genre allowed as well My vote goes to: Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit (Beat Hackers Remix) It's so bad it hurt my ears for days. Even though this one has been covered a million times (and no one managed to capture the spirit of the original), this one is to me without doubt the worst. They took the original recording and just dubbed it over a completely stupid beat. It doesnt fit at all, its out of place, everything. Something even a newcomer producer with a little sense for rythm can do much better than that... even worse: with shit like that they even make money Now its your turn, what's the worst remix you have ever heard?

NT Posted March 20, 2005 Share Posted March 20, 2005 Well this ain't a psytrance remix or whatever, but i really really really HATED it when this girl group called 'All Saints' covered the Red hot chilli pepper's wonderfull "Under the bridge" and even scored a hit with it, got me SO angry!... , sorry for the slight off topic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punit Posted March 20, 2005 Share Posted March 20, 2005 People can fly - Alien Project rmx I think the only other person who could have massacared the song more is Britney Spears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragonflier Posted March 20, 2005 Share Posted March 20, 2005 People can fly - Alien Project rmx 232580[/snapback] I was about to mention that one. Other than that I can't remember anything, I tend to forget the bad music I listen to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr papa Posted March 20, 2005 Share Posted March 20, 2005 Shpongle - Dorset Perception (Low-step's balearic breaks re-edit) A mistake of biblical proportions... It was so terrible I think it gave me cancer! It was just the original track with an annoying beat pasted over it. And to complete the act of desecration, there was a 'skip' in the track. Today, it remains a complete mystery to me that Twisted records released this abomination. I know that Shpongle had nothing to do with it, just some birdbrains from Ibiza who thought it would be a good idea to trash Shpongle and raise the bar for commercial exploitation. But how could Twisted endorse this crap? That's the only travesty within the psy-genre I can think of. As for regular music, every cover-track by recent 'artists' makes me sick to my ass... most recently with Alicia Keyes playing Stevie Wonder's 'Superstition' - BARF!!!!

Insejn Posted March 20, 2005 Share Posted March 20, 2005 GMSs and Infected Mushrooms remixes of Gamma Goblins.... those are pretty damn crappy. 232605[/snapback] I think Infected's remix is kinda good. Nice sounds and a cool approach to the original. For the topic. Almost all remixes on Astrals - Ten is a punch in the face to all astral fans. Dynamics massacre of the genious track Dancing Galaxy made me outrageous. And therefore is one of the worst remixes I've ever heard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinos Posted March 20, 2005 Share Posted March 20, 2005 10 can't be that bad. I'll have to listen to some samples... UPDATE 1: Ok, I heard Dancing Galaxy dynamic remix. Ho ho. Ho fucking ho. UPDATE 2: Mahadeva remix by John 00 Fleming. Congratulations, John! You managed to fuck up a classic that shouldn't be possible to fuck up. And you sound like Holymen! I'll try one more before crushing my plans on buying this. UPDATE 3: Nilaya (Melicia Remix) is.......saaaaaasyt7u6hy666666666666q *POST INTERRUPTED* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it's because I heard him play it live, and went crazy, do to the memories of the original. BUT, it can't beat the original, LOVE THE ORIGINAL!!

alpha Posted March 20, 2005 Share Posted March 20, 2005 The Tiesto remix of Barber's Adagio for strings 232713[/snapback] I heard Tiesto play this himself live a week ago and it actually fit nicely in his set. I'm pretty tired of the original and this gave some new approach to the track. I didn't really like it either when I first heard it at home though. Can't really think of bad remixes, I guess I try to avoid hearing them in the first place. I mean, stuff like Alien Project remix of an Astral Projection song... why bother?

delusional Posted March 20, 2005 Share Posted March 20, 2005 Worst ever would deffinitely have to be GMS' remix of a track by the Brazilian band Tribalistas: Tudo Mundo. That was a really, really, REALLY bad choice of a track to convert into Psytrance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frontier Psychiatrist Posted March 20, 2005 Share Posted March 20, 2005 Most of the Astral Projection's remixes are horrible. J00f did the best work i think. Even BLT failed to remix the classic. Alien Project's, Bizzarre Contact's and Dynamic remixes are disgrace. Actually all their output is a disgrace. AP should have never release this pile of crap. They should go for better remixers. Even GMS would do a proper job there. Dark Soho, IM, Yahel, Sub6, Pixel and hack even Eskimo could do better than those wankers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ormion Posted March 20, 2005 Share Posted March 20, 2005 Every Skazi rmx especially the "Satisfaction" one. I have to add. Spiritual Healing-Darshan rmx. It's not that bad but there is NOTHING that reminds the original.The melodies,the feeling,the melancholy are all GONE!!! Just a kick+bass all the way.WTF?
