I've noticed that there are many choons that are really shite but have very good remixes. The track which came up to my mind in this moment is Active X - Let's Go. PVD's TPOD mix is a tune, but I was curious about the original mix, so I've downloaded it and checked it out. It sucked big time. Same with Iio - Rapture. I know it has been discussed a lot before, but for me it was like I've heard the track for the first time in PVD's Knebworth set and omg what a tune! It was the Deep Dish remix. Later I 've heard Riva and AvB rmxes and they were mint. But when I noticed the original mix in the radio it was a horrible crap. So now when I'm in my local club (they usually play dance there) and when the Dj plays it, I quit the dancefloor immediately. I hate the track. But the remixes are still cool.
So what do you think - can good remixes save a worthless track ?
PRIME EXAMPLE: 'Vengaboys - Kiss (Airscape Remix)'
Also 'Jam & Spoon - Be.Angeled (Paul van Dyk Remix)'

I'm very partial to Jam & Spoon in general, started me off on trance.

I'll say Conductor and Cowboy - Feeling this Way(Solar Stone Remix)
the original is a pile of poo!
