All this 'selling out' bullshit attitude is utter rubbish. Its a music BUSINESS. wake up people.

Well I'm sorry. I see music as an art form, something that touches you, that can change your life - not a way to get famous and make money. I wouldn't buy anything by any artist if I thought for one second that their track was released to "pay the bills".

Do it under a different name. Money is money, and money is good for you.

"Who's Jan Wayne?"













"For that matter, why don't you ask him to do it?"

Seriously, though, I'd probably do it, just to try my hand at the style if nothing else.

Yea, but what is going to allow you to pursue this art form if you don't have any money to survive on? I would argue that a person who truly loves the music will do everything they can to make it a lifelong career. This may involve sacrificing some of the finer artistic principles that he or she might value in order to create opportunities to express themselves in the future.

True, money = synths/hardware

I would just make the remix in my own style.

That's what I'd do. Although I'd have a helluva time coming up with a name that suits me that isn't DC76

BT Mercury & Solace (Black Hole 12" - BLH112) - got it! c/o discogs marketplace
DJ Tiesto Sparkles Remix (Transa / Airscape / Starecase) (Black Hole 12" - BLH118) - mine at last! Thanks to Gemm
San Feel My Love / Stroke (In Trance We Trust 12" - ITWT302) - in my collection finally! discogs marketplace again
Nunca House Of Doom (In Trance We Trust 12" - ITWT300) - if you have this in an ITWT sleeve with the promo sheet let me know!

show me the money i'd say and do it under a different name. you could sell your soul but just keep your trance soul

i'd also try introduce certain elements of my style into the cheesey mix just to really fuck up those cheese loving bastards.

totally agree on your post but these 2 things tho. i thought armand was already pretty known with Witchdoktor and Funk Phenonemon(sp?).
