"remix":


i don´t know the real meaning of the term remix...but i´ve heard too many remixes (in an edm way) and isn't suppose to change synths, beats and stuff?

and this daddy yankee guy just added fergie lyrics and he calls it remix

am i wrong?

It's not called music. It's called reggaeton.

I just felt myself lose brain cells for watching these vids, thanks a lot

As a Daddy Yankee hater.

Who are you to define what a remix is? Tell me.

A "EDM style" remix is NOT the same as urban remixes.



The general definition of a remix is simply a different version of a song.

Covers are considered as remixes. (widely)

Haven't heard the videos but I find in general there are two kinds of remixes:
1. The shitty commercial remixes that sound like someone has just randomly put in annoying house/electro beats to a song+a couple of effects. Probably doesn't have the midi of the original either.
2. Decent professional remixes... that your not sure if this is version 2 of the track or a remix. It might change the genre of the song... it might extend it... it might shorten it... it might do all of the above. It might just be a general improvement. Doesn't need to be big. The whole point of this is if you haven't heard the original you might not be sure whether this is a remix or not because type 1 gives remixes a bad name. If you hear one of these and are like "wheres my out of place synth that makes song sound crap" and your like "wtf this ain't a remix" then shame on you. As I said I haven't heard the original video so this might be a null point but there are certainly people like that.

No, covers are considered as covers. If they were considered remixes, they would be called remixes.

Of course it's a remix. Moreso than a lot of remixes. They took the original recorded elements of a song, then changed something, inherently requiring a that they remix the track. I know it sounds overly literal, but a remix is at its core nothing more than changing the order of, adding something to, or removing something from, an original mix. True, some have more creativity than others, but really the idea of a "remix" in itself already isn't a beacon of creativity.

Yes, they are. It's not the primary word people in the real world use, but it's still the "technical" vocabulary.

And tell me how is your way of seeing thing supposed to be any considerable?

Because cover bands don't do any mixing.
