The very word 'remix' makes me shudder with dread!

wikee wikee wikee skreetchy scratchy... fresh rap sound effects. dance your pants off.

For f**ks sake, what the f**king hell is the f**king remix f**king about?!?!?!

It could be just a different mix of the song.
Besides I think they will be the same versions

I'm pretty sure that that's a minor mistake, and that the songs on the comp have been newly remastered. I'm not expecting Morrissey to chucking any phat beatz into his back catalogue.

Remix
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:

A remix is an alternative version of a song, different from the original version. A remixer uses audio mixing to compose an alternate master recording of a song, adding or subtracting elements, or simply changing the equalization, dynamics, pitch, tempo, playing time, or almost any other aspect of the various musical components. Some remixes involve substantial changes to the arrangement of a recorded work, but many are subtle, such as creating a "vocal up" version of an album cut that emphasizes the lead singer's voice.

Now we can finally hear the bass in Alma Matters and Last of the Famous! :)

This is another fabricated hoax. A REMIX Greatest Hits album? Please!

First of all, it lists "Redondo Beach" as having been remixed. Considering this was a live recording, how on earth could you (let alone WHY would you) remix a live track?

the songs are going to sound how they do when you see them in concert now, because live theyre played differently and have lyric and musical changes.

I still don't get why this is here because, because it says it's probably incorrect but anyways a remix - mixture mix, masterpiece -- I can't even say remix mix master- oh nevermind.

They just wanted to give us something to bitch about. If they throw the word Remix in there, we can spend the day complaining and worried about altered sound, some will be excited about a remix, others will be shocked, and eventually we'll find out that we all hate eachother, and start calling people moaners, and tell them their posts could have been written by Hitler, and that someone else is a total troll, and we'll realize the only thing we agree on is hating the other half of the people that post here. FUN!!!

Straight up! Mozza and his team thought that it's time for a change. They are all club mixes.

Maybe Morrissey should get Timbaland for the production and Beyonce for guest vocals. I mean dat wud be Fresh! And then give it for FREE at McDonalds! Who said anything about the record company crisis? Radiohead - run for cover!

No Panic or This Charming Man on this compilation? What a disgrace. I will not buy it! I will not buy it! I will not buy it! Repackage repackage repackage.

Presumably remastered means compressed to fuck. Hooray for the loudness wars.

Many of you don't seem to know the details regarding remastering. The songs are louder because they are converted to the digital standard format, bass included. The first CD's pressed in the 80's were albums mixed for Vinyl (including The Smiths...Doors, Bob Dylan, Beatles...etc). Mixing them for CD is neccessary and cannot be a bad thing. At the very least, if you can't tell the difference, with a remastered compilation you don't have to adjust the volume quite so much upon listening.

They've done a great job lately with the Doors, Joy Division, The Stooges, Leonard Cohen, The Cure and many other great (and not so great)albums & artists. Occasionally people get it wrong in the mix, but it's worth it overall. If you don't like it, they can't take your originals away!

I'm still awaiting proper New York Dolls album releases. When they remaster those, listen to the old and new and hear the difference. That should be an incredible indicator of what remastering can do. For now compare the Stooges first CD's with the newer versions. BIG BIG difference.

You are completly mad. But also quite funny, in a strange way.

K talking? Crystal meth? Oh dear....I sense psychosis around here! Or is it Vicky Pollard on holiday in the US?
