What is a remix?
I am not sure I understand why music fans are interested in hearing remixes of songs. I don’t even really understand what a remix is.
I know that you can take the separate tracks of a song and mix them differently (different levels for each track, different equalization, etc.), but it sounds like people are adding different drumbeats or ornamentation to the songs, and maybe restructuring them as well, adding new parts and such.
Why would anyone want to hear that, and why would anyone be motivated to do that to someone else’s music? I’d much rather spend that time working on something that is wholly my own creation. Maybe there’s something I’m missing… If there is, please let me know. And if you can point me to a remix of a tune that is better than the original, I would love that.
