Chart songs and remixes you actually like

    Following on from the other thread about DJs having to play chart songs and remixes of chart songs in clubs, what do you think are the best of these kinds of tracks? I realise they aren't going to be the best tracks in the world, but still leave out the 'that's all commercial ****e' kinda talk.

    I quite like the David Guetta remix of I Gotta Feeling: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pVIXt-5q27I&feature=related

    And the Foamo remix of Bulletproof:

    And (I know I'm not the only one, I'm looking at you Zascar): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ci40ae8BlcE

    Riverside is a pretty good tune too:

    Soulwax Nite Version of Kids is also great:

    I think you'd get away with playing all of these even in a pretty commercial club.


    "you actually like" not all mainstream music is bad, surprised? lmao

    First track is surely the FMIF remix?
    Rest are good even though I think Soulwax are very over rated.

    No, not all mainstream stuff, but IMO, and I'm sure a lot of people on here, most of the chart r 'n' b stuff they play in clubs is awful.

    Says the guy called Smau5. :p

    (Sorry, couldn't help myself, and I don't want this to turn into the usual 'deadmau5 is ****, vinyls playing techno in now defunct clubs is all we should talk about' business)

    Some of their stuff isn't great, but most of the Nite Versions are pretty solid, especially that tune, and their remix of Phantom Pt. II is the one everyone plays out.

    Most but not all, I agree.
    Also agree with Deadmau5 being over rated but I'm a big fan and it's a old username :p
