I was going to post this video, as a “make up your own mind if classic tracks should be remixed in an upto date style or left alone” kind of thing, and I suppose it still will be the main theme of this little blog post.

It goes without saying Kygo has the multitrack for “Hot Stuff” along with maybe a few more.. who knows? Not me that`s for sure.. 😉 but it does go to show the “2020 Remix” (or whatever year) is still a thing. Only difference this decade we`re now getting music stems as well as the more traditionally leaked vocals only side of things. So happy days !

So what did/do you think to the mix? Good/Bad – Good Idea/Winner/Good luck to him.. or it “Shouldn`t have been touched.. it is sacred” !!!! Where are you on the scale?? haha . Answers on a postcard. Ideally to Kygo here.

And it probably is a fair bet there will be more remixes of classic tunes (and maybe some not so classic ones) in the pipeline right now as we speak going on. I know of 3, and thats only me lol.

Which brings us back round to the point of the post.. remixing old stuff, it`s something that will never end. It hasnt yet.. and as we move forward with more source material becoming available almost daily, I dont think the trend will be going away any time soon either. At least the record companies are being a bit more cool with things though as this is obvs an official release and what have you.. so, from where I`m typing, thats a major bonus for everybody. One would assume that if there ever was a time to get that “classic” multitrack pack and make a “remix” with upto date things in it, now is that time. Get that mix done, say hi to the big guns, and hope they like it. The door`s open guys it seems. Well, if you know somebody on the inside, but we`ll forget that bit and just hope talent wins through. Or I suppose it would help a bit if your profile was as big as Kygo`s, but hey, you never know. No harm in trying.

Either way, 8 Million views in 6 weeks. Not too shabby. Proof of concept right there.

Now if only the record companies could convince themselves to release more multitracks, wouldn`t that just be dandy?
