Shakira - Hips Don't Lie
Bob Sinclair - World Hold On
They both have the main element being poorly mixed in imo. Can't think of anything else.
What are your contributions? |

| Everything from gigi d'agostino. Seems like they hired monkeys to do all the production and writing of the lyrics. |

Maybe there not that good but they were both successful tracks, which once again shows that tracks just need to be interesting not well produced to get released imo |

| Yeah. Most listeners don't care about the quality as long as it's pleasing in some way. |

Its all MTV
The fact that it was made into a music video is what really set it up for its success.
I hate the song to be honest, it makes me wanna punch babies |

WHAT!!?! I couldn't disagree more :-) I agree that Gigi has a very special sound, but in IMHO that's what it is - special - not bad!
I think he has done several mixes that are really, really well done in the sense that they have an edge and energy that don't come easy (i.e. takes a lot of tweaking, getting the eq and comps just right etc.).
Try listening to almost any track from the "Under Construction" EP - a kick and a bass that hits that hard, but still sounds very clean is not easy to produce (again imho).
Also listen to "Complex" - it's difficult to fit so much into a mix without it being cluttered, but I don't think it gets cluttered at all at any time...
Oh well, I guess it all depends on taste...
However, I completely agree with the guy that said Basshunter - "Boten Anna" is poorly produced. It was done in Fruity, for crying out... Probably all software VSTi and VSTs - and maybe just a T-Racks with the "Loud & Clear"-preset for mastering to finish it off nicely ;-) But hey, the song is a smashing hit all over Scandinavia.
Otherwise I would vote for the "DJ Sammy"-stuff. Don't like the thin sound...

| I hope people are offering un bias ideas here. We all know TA is nutorias for heavily bias info. I agree on the shakira track though I remember hearing it and just feeling like I needed to tweak and eq or level or something. |

+1 This is the worst song ever. The clip is even worse, what a nerd that guy. Not to mention what the lyrics are about. |
