1. They have new original sound with state-of the art mixes to an old, otherwise slow compositions...

2. They have some nice visuals...

3. They have fast beat and rhythm...

Now tell me dewey why do you think any of this is bad and secondly why cant it be better than the original...?😊

I like some remixes, infact they are really much better then originals. I don't like if they have too much english hip hop or too much base, drums and scratchy beats in them, too hard on ears but as long as they have loungy and groovy feel to them they sound very soothing actually.

Old songs with new singers / rhythm in movie album Dil vil Pyar Vyar were very good. Asha Bhonsle's remixes are nice, I think there are at least 5 versions of Ek Hasina thi ek deewana tha, and chura liya hai tumne jo dilko. and every one of Do lafzon ki hain dil ki kahani is excellent esp the one by Ajit Pohankar. DJ Yasee's version of Nazar mein raho(Rog) is another nice remix in jazz version one can listen to anytime. LEt me know if had like to listen to above. Kaanta laga , Raghav's remixes esp Kabhi aar kabhi par, etc are great for evening or party mood.

Veri true LH. I think we generally say things remixes more from affections of stereo type rather than actually bad music... Kahdu tumhe wasnt as much popular as original as it is as a remix... Kaliyon ka chaman... never heard that song... didnt it was remixed....:)

Yes remixes are more casual in approach... than a original where some genuine talent and dedication went into play... but then you might call it a chance and criticize it for these short-comings...when the song becomes a hit.. but you cant run it down purely based on its rendition....😊

Yeah, talk about a song that cannot be improvised- Jiya dhadhak dhadhak beautifuly and soulfuly sung by RFAK, and Himani in SRGMP 2005 sang it even better..!!! Amanat sang Albela Saajan in SRGMP 07 better then original. Mauli's Mayya mayya became a hit before most heard the original version of it.

So dhobi's are not so cool for these kinda of songs is it? How much more stereotyping we will have to live with now....😡.😆

I think some of the remixes are fantastic... like... kaha du tumhe, kaata lagaa, kaliyon ka chaman, sajna hai mujhe... i mean i would think they are better than originals.....even if some of them were RDB classics.....😊

at some level I agree with Qwety here

We love some of the originals just b'cos of a familiarity factor, if not remixed nobody would have cared about some of them, only when they are remixed the originals also start getting more play time

Morever, if you want to connect your younger generation to your heritage(of music😆) you need to present it in a format they would find it attractive to watch, now I detest the skimpy dresses(I have to say it to sound old😉😆) but the idea of remix certainly has some value

Music should be produced in its original way should be stopped remix.

Sure Sareg why dont you produce a belly dancing song by...eskimos 😆.. beautiful body is a great gift. of nature.... it needs to be shown off as much as possible and permissible....thats a beautiful truth...

Ok now I remember by seeing your points ..with whome I had this debate before 😆😆😆

See old compositions have their own flavour ..whenever we listen to those it is not only music or tune that matters .. it is the way an artist conveyed it ,the way original creator made an artist to convey his\her art. I don't know if those music director would approve such remixes or not . it feel to me like if one add more colors to "mona lisa" because colors used were yellowish and she would look better to some with added lip color and blush etc. 😆

To me if music director approves such remixes ..than it is ok other wise it is a kind of crime. I dont know if they pay any kind of royalty to orginal singers ,music directors and lyricists or their families.

As for visuals .. come on .. most of such visuals are nice to male specie of particular age and ofcourse marital status has strong influence on it too .. on top of it if they have kids and even if they are in early 20s forget about it 😛😆

Be realistic such remixes cant' be enjoyed with family..

As for fast beat and rythm .. well why not make new compositions rather than distorting preexisted one. To me such remixes are made mostly to make easy money on some one else's hard work.

Yes I agree with Sareg on point that with remixes old songs reappear.. but I would rather suggest to digitaly remaster the original track and make new video on those compositions rather making a remix .. and yes .. no indecent videoes plzzzzzz

See Lighty you are giving egs of these days songs where you don't find anything to improvise it. who knows what people would say after 30-40 years. 😊

As for Himani when she sang full credit was given to original song .. and even then I personaly like original version better .. As for Amanat his case was entirely different original composer made changes in his own composition according to Amanat's capbilities it was already changed so can't say it is complete copy of original . 😊

Well as for Maya maya again the credit was totally given to originals and composition was not changed and honestly I didn't like Mauli's version .. I simply can't stand her penetrating voice... however it is obviouse Muali's version become more popular cause many could see it with family 😉

Good you clearified about heritage 😆. Even then I dont' agree to distort orignals cause I simply can't hear replacement of original artists generally, Lata or Rafi specifically ..... Sara maza kharab hojata he .. and I m sure SD And RD burmans bhi kahin apna sar peet rahe honge 😆 along with some others.

Yes I am in favour of new videos and I dont' think there is any need to make those videos vulgar .. which I believe a cheap way to get immediate short lived attention from a target population..
