When good tracks... go bad!

What are your worst experiences with remixes? Cases when the remix utterly ruined the original song?

*cough*cosmic gate remixing suburban train*cough*

I think the "vocalization" is worse thing than remixing even if lots of remixes shouldn't been made. When vocals are later added to an originally instrumental track, to reach a wider audience i guess.

Push - Strange World > Push - Strange World (Into The Sky)
Riva - Stringer > Riva feat. Dannii Minogue - Who Do You Love Now? (Stringer)
Beat Pusher - Murto > Beat Pusher feat. Miranda Brainsby - Saving Grace (Murto)
Plastic Boy - Live Another Life > Plastic Boy feat. Rozalla - Live Another Life

and oh so many others but as for bad remixes.. i could say these for example:

Solar Stone - Seven Cities (Armin van Buuren Remixes)
Three Drives - Greece 2000 (G&M Project Remix)
Echano - Nothing To Live For (Gareth "GTR" Emery Remix)
Allure - No More Tears (Butterfly Remix)
Age Of Love - The Age Of Love (Marc et Claude Remix)
Orkidea - Melancholy (Cor Fijneman Remix)
benjamin
Mauro Picotto - Pulsar (DJ Tiesto remix)
Gouryella - Ligaya (DJ Tiesto remix)
and Tiesto remix of Adagio for strings

Making a bad track worse? :D

P.S.:
The Cosmic Gate Remix of Urban Train certainly didnīt ruin the original in my opinion...

i agree, i used to bum the cosmic gate mix!
DJ Cinos
Are you serious? CG ruined the whole idea with the track and turned it to generic hardtrance!

Not everybody has the same taste in music as I do, but STILL!

Nope.

I'll just quote myself from THIS thread:

He's talking about "Angel City - Do You Know (I Go Crazy) (BCD Project Remix) or (Cor Fijneman Remix)" which are worse than warm dog p00.

Then again only mix worth listenin (if must) is the Phunk Investigation Remix. I don't know why did they end up remixing this pile of crap tho...

PS. the vocal sample is from Michelle Gayle - Do You Know.
