Yep

what about artist name - track (original artist name mix)

let's not even get into what 'dub' means LOL

What in the hell god's name does 'Radio Mix' means?
nefardec
well generally mixes for the radio have to be shorter and sweeter - the catchiest parts alone, etc. this way radio deejays can cram many tracks into their rotation
Kinezi
Nice!!

It sounds fun naming these tracks BTW..:)

no need to get so technical, the threadstarter just wants to know the basic difference, and I gave it to him.


Not necessarily. As the guy has pointed out, there are tracks with a Club Mix but no Original Mix. Sometimes the two are synonymous. Sometimes they're even simultaneous- witness Original Club Mix.

The point is that there is no defined nomenclature for naming tracks. As Mr Mystery rightly says, producers can (and do) put anything they like in brackets and it could mean anything they want it to.

It's not accurate to say that "Club Mix" always means the same thing and always has the same relation to "Original Mix". You should always point out the above- while there may be general trends, there is no universal meaning to any kind of mix and people shouldn't try and define them in essentialist ways.

i could on the grass and call it a club mix

i cant stand the pointless and endless relativism

no harm in simplifying things this unimportant imo



edit
in any case, a club mix, whether or not there is an instrumental, means it is written to be used by deejays, whereas an original mix, regardless of whether or not there is a club mix, is usually the first released version of a track*


*unless the producer was taught that mr. mystery and system j school of track nomenclature, in which case it can be absolutely anything
