Examples of songs whose remixes were way more popular than the original versions, resulting in some originals being lost forever to the dustbin. in fact many of the originals are totally different from the familiar remixes.
energy 52 - cafe del mar(1993)
art of trance - madagascar(1998)
ayla - ayla(1995)
transa - prophase(1996, original rereleased in 2002)
underworld - born slippy
any other examples?

Age Of Love - The Age Of Love (1990)

Maybe not for you. So far, I've only been able to get at a sample of it provided by someone else.

Zombie Nation - Kernkraft 400 is another one.

A good symbol of this is where at least one of the remixes is labelled as the original, which happens far too often on pretty much all of these.

No, you hear the "NUXX" 4/4 version. That's not the original.

I know it has nothing to do with this thread, but "Born slippy" has got to be one of the most boring/bland tunes I have ever heard. I don't understand the hype behind it.

CJ Bolland - Sugar Is Sweeter

DJs always played the Armand Van Helden Remix of this track and for good reason too since the original was pretty boring. You can listen to the original here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DT5n2bCopX4
and the remix can be found here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/music/wma-...2177764-5383622

binary finary - 1998

altitude - altitude

dk8 - murder was the bass

rob dougan - clubbed to death

Wamdue Project - King of my castle
