In extremely rare cases what we think is the "original mix" of a track isn't the original mix of the track. Yeah, it might have no labelling to it beyond the track name and it might be the track that producer first revealed to the world and what made it popular, but it's not the ORIGINAL MIX of the track that the producer completed.
Example? Motorcycle - As the Rush Comes. It originally had very different music. Believed it was only ever played in one G&D mix (their mix for Global DJ Broadcast on 02-15-2003). But it was never released. They changed the music in the track before the world even got to know the song and the track with that music exploded and was simply labelled "Motorcycle - As the Ruch Comes" ...
Here's a sample of Motorcycle - As the Rush Comes (Original Mix) I cropped out of that set and compressed all to hell!

Thanks for the sample, I never heard that version before. |

Motorcycle is a pretty crap example.
The 'version' everyone knows is the "G&D Sweeping Strings Mix"... so by that name alone, people should be able to deduce its not the original mix. |

You are right but people often don't think that much.. many still think that is the original version because they have never heard of the original.
In some cases Original Mix can also be a bit misleading, especially if one wants to be picky.. like with Sonorous - Glass Garden. The version labeled as Original Mix in most releases in 2000-2001 isn't actually the truly original version of the track but a clubby rework; the real Original Mix is a 5-minute downtempo piece which was released on Sonorous' "Did You Ever Dream?" EP in 1999. |

| I think Original Mix is occasionally a necessary tag. An example would be Song of Life by Leftfield. The version that appears on Leftism is the version most people know, and it's not labelled with anything else so people assume it's the original. Actually, it's quite significantly different from the actual Original Mix, but who is going to put Album Version or Original Mix after every track on the album notes? |

But I believe there is also a version out there that's simply "Motorcycle - As the Rush Comes" that's labelled just like that and NOT the Sweeping String Remix...A more basic mix of the SSR that has pretty much the same music. I could be wrong, this is long ago.
Don't think the version I am speaking of was ever released, either...maybe as part of mix comps, but not as a single. |

You problably thinking of Tiesto's Nyana, but the mix appearing in it is an unfinised G&D remix rather than the original mix. Atleast it says so on the sleevenotes. Im not certain.
Am i wrong? |
