the label chooses remixes...
i think a lot of it depends on the specific contract. |

| Depends on the clout of the artist, I mean Armin's mix of (title escapes me), the label pressed more and there was not a damn thing he could do about it. Carl Cox turns down tons of songs, heck he has remixes done and then they don't make the album. I mean I think Paul van Dyk could say what remixes he wanted (tho the label responsible for his output, he owns). It all depends on the contract you sign and the clout you have. Sasha turned down an xpander remix and told the label to off and the wavy gravy remix comp was born. I think the bigger artist you are, the more clout you have. I mean I think Sarah Mclachlan has some say into the remixes that are done but I bet she leaves it to the management because she is making a boatload of money. I mean if my bank account grows because of remixes then I don't think that many people would stop. I mean I don't think Island (I think still with U2) would tell Bono that they were having this remix done and there was not a damn thing he could do about it, I mean U2 is probably one of the bigger selling bands on that label, if not the biggest. So I'm sure Bono would be asked, who do you want to remix because if a band is making you a ton of money, you are going to do everything you can to keep them. |

Mostly it's the label thing. I think she might also like dance music a little bit. |
Thought you might like to know that she started out in dance music. She sang with a group called Manufacture (1987)and her first single ( I think) was a 12" called Vox(1988). I think we still have both of those. She is one of my favorites.... Over the years her fan base has broadened a lot, but fyi, dance music is not a new genre for her.:) |

| It's the same reason why all Delerium tracks get remixed. Everyone remembers Silence and all producers know they will sell records purely for having a dance remix of a Delerium/Machlachlan track. |

| She has a great voice... I'd like to remix her too.. |

| because her voice is 100x superior to Justine Suissa's meaning any track remixed properly will be a huge hit, properly sung too and the tracks are made to fit the vocals, not just vocals written for a track that's already been made, makes all the difference |
