is a remix album ever a good idea?

[dancingleaf]

So I'm browsing eMusic looking for my downloads this month.

Have a few possibles...

Nova Arabia - possible but - ugh so many vocals...

Headnodic - bizarre but I like it - sort of trance like. could be very good for cool downs or something...

and now... I've stumbled into

Balkan Beat Box... which I'm really liking... but really - an entire album of remixes? why? ... no really - I get it that you want to play with and alter something you are already working with OR... maybe it's like improv right - you take something you know and change it - let it flow and be spur of the moment. I just don't understand why you'd want to record that.

hmm... just - thinking.

P.S. got any great suggestions? I'd love to hear what you are listening to these days.

It's been a few months since I really listened to dance some music; taking a hiatus to let my knee heal. But I've got the iTunes open right now, so gimme some time.... :)

Some remixes are good; some aren't so good. That's what I've found.
