Please God, take me now, before I hear this played out at some club.

I'm a complete n00b when it comes to production, so I ask this question in all sincerity... where exactly is the fucking "remix" in this track?

As far as I can tell it's

1. Randon tech-trance tune
2. Viva la vida slapped on in the break
3. Stutter / echo effect with the last vocal syllable
4. Return to step 1.

and this is a "remix"?


Edit: There seems to be a Coldplay Synth stab at the beginning of the clip... so, 0.25 points to Mike, I guess

I'm surprised that this hadn't happened sooner. First thing I thought when I heard this was, "Okay, there's no real drum line in this, so who's going to be the first to bastardize it?"

this is bad. this is not exactly the song that needs the shitty tech trance hard bassline. A good remix of this song could actually be nice I think.

and LOL at 'mikefoyle's rebuttal on youtube to

I actually think that this is a song that vintage Mike Foyle (Shipwrecked, Love Theme Dusk) could make a decent remix of.

Ack!!

Though I am not a fan of the original, it reminds me of: "What Else Is There?" - royksopp(trentemoeller remix)



This style of music is the ultimate dada-fest of our time...

I think Radio 1 is the worst piece of shit ever nowadays.

So much fucking overplay, irritating and unfunny DJs.

Just toss. Supporting sweaty indie bands, with lofi sweaty indie music.

Listening to it makes me feel like a tramp.

I'm not even that big a fan of the original, but it beats this piece of crap so-called "remix" any day of the week.

Every one of these fake-tech-trance producing idiots uses the same damn buildup style.

Filter out the beat
Stutter a bar or two of the melody for a while.
Filter out the bass.
Put a big echo on everything and then filter the echo.
Throw a few bass farts in and then...
Bring the beat back in!

Koglin is just trying to attach himself to the Coldplay name, imo...
Fail remix...There are better Coldplay remixes, like this one(again, imo):
