without addressing the quality of the remix in question, i just want to point out again, that right or wrong, remixing is now more or less just adding a few samples from the original track over a piece of music that is identifiable by that remixers personal style. the old style 1980s extended mix remixes are gone. i haven't heard many remixes in the last 10 years that weren't completely new backing tracks with a few sprinkles from the original track left intact. not acknowledging that fact is to be blind to the last 10-20 years of remix culture.
