https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AVTR3w8XwfM

listened to everything itt so far (except the 3-hr mix lol) and i'm glad i did

i need to register that this

seduction - (you're my one and only) true love (new york house mix #2)

is now one of my all-time favorite tunes (at least the first half)

I've spent much of today listening to the 3.5 hour megamix, and it is astonishingly fine - I'd forgotten that millennial diva-house remixes could be so fantastic.

From the megamix playlist, here's what I would have otherwise added to this thread:

Destiny’s Child – Independent Women (Victor Calderone Club Mix)
Destiny’s Child – Survivor (Victor Calderone Club Mix)
Jennifer Lopez – Waiting for Tonight (Hex Hector Momentous Club Mix)
Stars On 54 – If You Could Read My Mind (Hex Hector Club Mix)
Whitney Houston – It’s Not Right but It’s Okay (Thunderpuss Club Mix)
Angie Stone – Wish I Didn’t Miss You (Hex Hector & Mac Quayle Club Mix)

The Jennifer Lopez is ill-served by the megamix, and needs to be heard in its full epic 11-minute glory:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MdUhJ7gJo1o

ty!!!

she did that version at the super bowl! it is definitely a classic (among the several others also posted). perhaps i will listen to the megamix in full sometime

it is amazing how many of these big remixes of that time hex hector had a hand in, another huge classic on that level being his mix of deborah cox's "nobody's supposed to be here"

Destiny's Child - Say My Name ( Maurice's Last Days Of Disco Millennium Mix)

I'm sure everybody has their favorite Jacques Lu Cont/Thin White Duke remix. This one was a BOMB.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oFmD77hxBT0.
Missy Elliott - Lose Control (Jacques Lu Cont Mix)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_fVq5f7F_pM

Res - They Say Vision (Robbie Rivera Mix)

always a welcome revive

two days ago i remembered i had this. all tracks are the 12-inch mix, and some are remixes. annoyingly you have to dive into the centre label of each record to discover the particulars.

https://i.imgur.com/6H03bx0.jpg

some real dross there but they seem to have saved all the good stuff for side 3. This Brutal House is great of course, and the UK Edit of it is very good
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BnqJ7ojAPro

Criminal Element Orchestra (aka Arthur Baker) - Put The Needle To The Record has some very big drumming and some quite shameless samples from Prince's Kiss
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bls--qxiM8s

LA Mix - Don't Stop (Jammin) - great percussion and groove and space in the production
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vTuCI8YUDXI

House Nation - some surprisingly dystopic synth snaking through the middle of this one
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I2FO7HSuBl0

a rabbithole on L.A. Mix, Les Adams and the Disco Mix Club led me to this New Year's Mix that Les did for 1987/88

kissing the pink - certain things are likely (garage mix)

This is my new favorite thread. What a goldmine.

i feel like i've posted this one somewhere else but here's grant nelson doing "the pleasure principle"

janet jackson - the pleasure principle (grant nelson remix)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VJXeOo_f9i4

That KTP one is fire

I’ve been digging through a load of Erasure remixes recently. I’d love to hear this at 3am on a dancefloor somewhere:

Erasure - Love To Hate You (Bruce Forest Mix)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e8palhysVO0

nice!!

whoa that is awesome

neneh cherry - buddy x (honey dijon remix)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ATUxAMm-das

well isn't that just right up my alley.

i would have thought the queers here would light up to honey dijon's remix of "free woman" by lady gaga, but crickets all summer. i think honey dijon is excellent and right in the center of the vibe i go for, but people here do not get it for whatever reason. too funky / not enough risers and edm or something.

first got into honey dijon via those stunning boiler room sets where she was doing those amazing eq + delay tricks (the ray ban x br madrid set was a big one)

i remember thinking "holy shit the best thing since derrick carter" ... who also of course doesn't play half as well to americans as he does to europeans, at least not outside of chicago and LA where boompty bumpin house stuff will always be a thing

she had a great essential mix a few years ago:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mkVD6MEeasI

finally getting around to this, production sounds great for 2001

janet jackson - all for you (thunderpuss club mix)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4B1094OWlLo

i wish the "i get lonely" club mix was a .. fuller sounding or something.

yall i need some help tbh. can ANYBODY recommend stuff that people who scream along to the calvin harris rihanna tracks (we found love, where have you been) would like? what am i missing.

no katy perry please thanks

the one I immediately thought of is Loreen’s “Euphoria” (massive in Europe and beyond, although it apparently didn’t even make the US *Dance* charts, so it might fall flat over there), and especially the (pretty obscure but awesome) Carli Remix of it:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rIluZNFU8Po

…which in return reminded me I made a Spotify playlist many years ago with stuff like this, named after Karmatronic and Visionquest, whose remixes I was extremely smitten with - but it has plenty other remixers as well:

https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6OhDaghJHxlrdcXoCNQzAT?si=JfTo1StxQlCw-KTG_fuTKg

(if you have Spotify at all of course, which is not exactly a given here!)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GWhn2vaMqLk

Lonnie Gordon - Do You Want It (John Robinson Vibration Mix)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jHTgbAXKEpA

The Cover Girls - I Am Woman (Smack Club House Vocal)

finally catching up, thanks beastcrawl and saer. 'euphoria' is right on.

i stumbled on this remix from madame x, it's "crave" done up in sumptuous disco house, totally great imo

madonna - crave (tracy young damgerous remix)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NS-GlzBYg4A

this is big and stupid and perfect

kesha - your love is my drug (dave aude club mix)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xS6x_ijJqUo

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RvMzj7lqufs

Backroom Congregation - Sunday Morning (DJ Spen's remix)

and

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3gnDQ6BIoJY

Seal - Latest Craze (Joe Claussell mix)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SvNdsQfr2fk

Kym Mazelle - Big Baby (Ramsey & Fen mix)

undeniable

I LOVE that last one

I’ve been digging through a load of Erasure remixes recently. I’d love to hear this at 3am on a dancefloor somewhere:

Did you make it as far as....

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GdFUddpd7Lw

Erasure - Stay With Me (NY Mix)

continuing on with the naffest taste in the thread

elton john, britney spears - hold me closer (joel corry extended mix)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QAaQBIoyrgc

i keep trying with paul woolford remixes but find them really boring and flat for the most part, which is weird because i remember loving special request years ago

joel corry otoh has some pizzazz

Depeche Mode - Enjoy The Silence (Timo Maas Remix)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gI6fQ2IXMjE

The Whitest Boy Alive - Golden Cage (Fred Falke Remix)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5f60CBGEQt0

Selena Gomez - Come And Get It (Fred Falke Remix)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i398SlxjeR4

Saer, thanks I had not heard that one - it’s a good un!

Siegbran, if we are talking remixes of Enjoy the Silence, it’s got to be the impeccable Ewan Pearson mi for me:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YIsJ-2VUXT4

Also from Depeche world...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x3NM8JL3TxY

Depeche Mode - Little 15 (Priku Edit)

The Ewan Pearson mix is absolutely great and successfully builds on everything that was good about the original - but it also very much retains the cadence and feel of that original too. What I particularly like about that Timo Maas one is that it goes...off-script somehow in an unsettling way, especially around the 4 minute mark. I think it's a very interesting path to take those overfamiliar vocals and chord progression along.

feel like my antipathy toward taylor swift is pretty weak since i've quickly warmed up to this song thanks to this jayda g remix. ugh it makes me so happy that jayda g is remixing big pop releases now.

taylor swift - anti-hero (jayda g remix)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cd3v_pRgOp8

wow, hell yes

remix rules!

I recently discovered a David Morales remix of “So Emotional” by Whitney Houston on a record I picked up cheap sometime over the last few years:

https://www.discogs.com/release/703095-Various-Golden-Nuggets-Vol-1

It doesn’t seem to be on YouTube but you can hear me playing it from around 1hour 41 minutes on a recent radio show:
