Another classic example:
Above & Beyond remixed Madonna...they also mixed a Fragma song too...and not least Ayumi Hamasaki who is the biggest commercial POP star in Japan.. and would u call A&B Cheesy?
They are one of the biggest Trance acts and LABEL owners (Anjunabeats) with full respect from the likes of PVD, Tiesto, Armin etc and thousands of other fans...
I agree with DJ Nemesis 101% - I just wish people wouldn't be so narrow minded caught up in their own genre artist/producer tastes..
Comparing the likes of artists and producers for favouritism is not entirely a possible thing to do. Music is music and it's made by different people from diferent era's, diferent times, diferent societies, diferent skills and diferent inspirations from DIFFERENT
people! Everyone has different tastes!
Doing a commercial remix does not mean shit... in G&D case, they could actually be doing the scene a favour by giving Young teenage girl/boy POP addicts a taste of more mature sounds of dance music which would ultimately educate them with a more serious dance sound... as many would say "the future is in their hands" so what better way express music to crowds that wouldnt normally get to hear in this case, G&D's music.
I actually discovered A&B from Madonna's EP... I listen to chart music on the radio when i drive... so what?
