mixing and remixing are different things bro. Mixing involves taking two or more full tracks, beatmatching them and then just blending them together.
A remix is taking a song or elements of a song and creating a new version. That requires producing software and/or hardware. If you go to Beatport.com you can find tools and samples and occasionally they'll have remix contests with all the parts you'd want. Otherwise try contacting and artist and asking for the parts explaining that you'd like to try remixing their track. :conf: |

Being a producer that specializes in remixes, I can tell you that what your asking isn't an easy thing to tackle.
There are two ways you can go about remixing tracks you like:
First (and most legit) way.
1) Sample Breakdowns
Some artists (like Sasha with AirDrawnDagger) will release the samples for anybody interested in remixing the tracks. For most though, you'll have to contact the artist personally. Most artists have a pre-mixdown setup of thier samples. These are each sample and sound they used for any particular track. In my experience, most artists are pretty cool about allowing you to use them. That is if you're able to contact them. WAV files are usually best as they convert to any DAW that you're using.
Second (and "ghetto") way.
2) Sound Stripping
Since it's tough to get hold of they original artist sometimes to get each sample, loop, or track. This is the most common way up-and-comers bootleg remixes. It's also the hardest. Make sure you have plenty of plug-ins and solid DAW that will do what you need. The process involved isn't easy but the theory is. What you want to do is isolate a sound (or sounds) from a track that has already been mixed down to a two-track (stereo) sound. Then you rearrage and introduce your own sounds to the mix. Again, the process involved in the isolation is tough but once you get it down, you know. But since each track is recorded differently and sound unique. Getting a certain sound from each track may be tougher than you expect.
Nonetheless, I enjoy remixing because it's a challenge and it's great to hear what comes from it. It's even better if you play your new bootleg remix out and people love it!!! |
