Holy Ghost! I Will Come Back (Classixx Acapulco Nights Version)
I remember when Classixx remixed that one Phoenix song called "Lisztomania" and people listened to their version more than the original version. I think that is when they became 'authentic remixers who were highly in demand.' Feel like as time has gone on, there is a 'power rankings' of Authentic Remixers, and if you want your band to be 'relevant', you should pay $1k-$10K to secure a remix by this band. Seems like a better investment than 'buying a huge amp.'
I think that Classixx and Holy Ghost! are both authentic products, but I don't know what they look like/what their live show is all about. Feel okay with them 'just being names on my iPod' as of now.
Remix Chatter:
Industry insiders have relayed information to me saying that Classixx soon has a remix of DFA band YACHT coming out soon. Wonder if that will be as 'in demand' as the Soulwax remix of MGMT's "Kids." Have also heard that VEGA has 'epic' remixes coming out soon that will 'basically be the last great MP3 that electro/mainstream mp3 blogs blog.' Miss the days of getting 'mad pumped up' for a remix/mp3 instead of just feeling entitled to 'good remixes' and a 'decent conceptual mp3' every month. Wonder if MP3 blogs ruined everything. Miss the days of 'driving to a CD store' then being disappointed in your purchase as you listen 2 it on the way home.
