For all you technical geniuses here (yes...thats you TeKnoHe@d2025)
I assume that if I were to compose an original work that it only becomes a REMIX or DUB (etc) after someone modifies it...so what type of modifications make each of these extensions unique?
What are the differences in trax that are labeled as a remix, dub, radio edit, version, mix, someone vs. someone else, etc.... please post other extensions that you have seen and tell me what they mean. I've just always wondered if they were used interchangeably or if they were all different. |

Remix/ Mix/ Rework -- This is just a remake of the orginal song, re-mdade by another producer or DJ...they have simply just added, subtracted or changed in some way the track to have it sound how they invision it would sound if it was their song.
Radio Edit -- This is self explainatory. Most radio stations won't play LONG songs so producers cut their tracks down so that radio's will play them. They are just shortend versions of songs.
Dub -- I still have no clue what this means. :(
Someone vs. Someone -- This just means 2 people worked on the track together, for example Infected Mushroom vs. Yahel - "Electro Panic" this song was made by Infected Mushroom AND Yahel, it's just another way to say "and." Or for example Atlas - "Compass Error (Tarrentella vs Redanka Remake)" simply means that Tarrentella and Rendanka remixed the track together OR that Tarrentella Remixed the track and then Redanka took that remix and remixed again...or vise versa.
That's all I know :) |

MOST of the times the "Dub" version is the non-vocal version of a track, specially in trance. But sometimes is a whole new song altogether, like Svenson & Gielen - Twisted (Jacob & Mendez Spanish Dub) :conf: |

| A dub as I know it is a song usually without vocals, OR In the case of DnB a dub is a song that basically wears out quicker the more you play it. (don't know how many times though). |

no vocals or few vocals used |

| neoh |
dub's, in my opinion are a remix of a song in someone's honor, with a new title.
dont quote me on that. :)

| Dub doesn't exaclty have to be vocals...it can mean any sample is taken out, or there's less of. |

I was under the impression that this was usually just a bootleg -- where someone just mashed two artists together [eg. Darude vs. Miles - Children (of the Sandstorm)] to make a REMIX.
Interesting... a dub is no vocals...Im off to test that theory.

You are both right. Sometimes it means the people worked together while other times it means it is a bootleg (mashup). Either you can tell the difference by wheather it sounds good or not :) Seriously, I guess if you have no clue if it is a bootleg or collaboration often the title will give a hint, like Sander Kleinenberg vs Disco Citizens - A Sacred Footprint or Kosheen vs. Ferry Corsten - Catch the Punk are bootlegs while Impact vs DJ Cor Fijneman - No Way Out or Fictivision vs C-Quence - Symbols are collaborations. |
