GMS Remixing Posford?!

Well, many of you people have probably heard the GMS Remix of The Finger... I personally didn't like it much, especially when compared to the wonderful original. BUT, some people kept on telling me "but they know how to work the dancefloor so much better than anyone else"... Well, if all of you people remember Samothraki, when Posford was in the last bit of his live act, he played a remix he did to GMS's one. I just felt that he just wanted to say to the Banzi and Riktam "I see what you wanted to do here... Well, this is how you do it right". If anyone in the world thought that GMS have the potential to outshine Posford, that was the ultimate lesson - if he only tries to make something rock a dancefloor, he can make people forget acts like GMS ever existed.

I know a lot of people will reply about it being my personal taste, but I'm sure if any one of those people would have been in Samothraki, that would be a lesson they wouldn't forget. Comparing GMS to Posford is like comparing Britney Spears to REAL rock giants. Sure she can make a cover to I Love Rock'n'Roll and it'll be on the radio non-stop, as well as make loads of #1 hits that work on dancefloors all around the world - that doesn't make her the new Janis.

Don't look at GMS as anything other than a hit machine, they aren't the people that'll make music you'll remember.           http://www.myspace.com/Hooloovoo222

60 % of GMS music is killer IMHO... the other 40 % is fuckin sux (also new trax)

ALso thier remixes not really good... I like just the Rmx for Midnight sun.. Rmxs for Come On, The Finger, Reload, just dont HAVE it...
They do those rmx just for the money...

I dont think they canT remix Simon... They still good, but alittle emotion in the rmx or something and it will be good..

BTW - Also Infected remixed Gamma Goblins and that also wasnt the best...           ..."Be yourself, let your conscience guide you...

I think that you're wrong here. A remix in my opinion is a different interpertation for a musical piece, in our case a track.
So GMS took The Finger and gave it another interpertation in the form of a full-on dancefloor track. No one is trying to be a new Posford by remixing him... It's just a remix. And if Simon would make full-on, trust me. No one will forget GMS, because they were here first and Simon has a lot to learn from them about making full on. Simon knows how to make sounds and emotional tracks, he doesn't know how to rock the floor and I'm sure that he will need time to develop that skill.
Why are you so anti hit machines? No one forces you to listen to full on if you don't like it. Some people like that style and don't give a damn if it's innovative, creative, original, etc. They want hits. So what is better than taking Simon and turning him into a dancefloor track?

Food for thought.

this i agree. but there's nothing wrong with it as long as they enjoy making music and people (not you) enjoy their creations.           REHAB is for quitters

Mike: if you'd see what Posford did on the dancefloor with that track at Samothraki, he just showed GMS that you can do full-on much better. And a certain DJ that's always trying to convince me that GMS can do full-on very well had to agree, their version of The Finger was less psychedelic, less emotional - and at that specific show, less full-on, not nearly as powerful. Personally, I feel that if being as good as GMS in their own style was so hard, Alien Project, Safi Connection, Astrix and Talamasca wouldn't have ever been able to exist. And yet, no one can get close to Posford at his own game. It's musical genius vs. financial genius. GMS would be the latter.           http://www.myspace.com/Hooloovoo222

Imo, gms dont care about how you feel, they just want you to buy their music, and thats all. They dont care about people at all as you can see in others threads. The thing is, how can you be so positive and defend someone who doesnt show a little of respect and wants to be a popstar. I know im not talking about music, but for me the artist tries to lead you through his ideas and thoughts. Im sorry fellows, but dont think i can have a trip with banzi playing anymore.

Respect to GMS, but i agree with Kaz... imho the only thing they can do right (and even this is rerr) is remix... i heard a couple of good remixes (midnight sun...)... as i think the good dr. posted here a couple of days ago, it all sounds like cats in blenders... and thats so true, i can hear matbe 10 GMS (there own) tracks, i must say i have hard time in hearing the difference... imho af artist like Astrix is much more inovetive and creative an artist, but ok thats just taste ... The problem with there songs is it allways the same, CATS IN A BLENDER... and ok if the would have made one song like this but ALL there songs are like this... And offcourse they shouldn't try to remix such classics as songs mentioned above... it can have only one perpose GREED... and that i personaly hate.
No disrespect to GMS.

GMS are remixing everything in hand
don't be surprised when they remixed posford.
i personally think their music simply SUCK!
it's all sounds the same it's boring and they make track in less than a hour (u can see that by the amount of the tracks they have)           u can find "Anything U Want" using the search...

Simon is the best artist around,thats a fact.

GMS are one of the best artists around,thats also a fact either we like it or not.

Remixing always request a permision so if Simon let them remixing his tracks then we dont have the right to judge them.
If the track i good listen to it,if its not then dont listen it and move on or listen to the original version.           Toodaloo Motherfuckers!!!!!

unfortunatelly i didn't hear the last set of Posford but i heard him in the morning at chill out , and what was going there was an electronic waltz , ppl were simply flying .... and i bet he didn't let down at the afternoon ... so it's out of a question whether Simon can rock ppl or he can't ... imho , if he wants - he will rock the dancefloor better then anyone else in the history ... for the GMS ... i respect them for many nice head - bunging and feet-breaking tunes they brought during last years , but disrespect them for the low good tracks/all tracks ratio , and for all the shit that we hear about their attitude towards party ppl/organaizers ...
bottom line - u can't compare between them ,obviously Simon is another league ...and lets not put parallels upon one track they remixed .. GMS remixes so many tracks that its only natural that they got one of Posford's .... i don't like their rmxs usually , but sometimes they got nice ones ,for example the Cheeseballs rmx .... let them try , maybe it comes out good           Dance is my Trance

Astrix is not the same as GMS... imho a differendt league... thats just my opinion. Astrix is more melodic, more emotional and most importently his tracks have charecter.           "Love is a way of life"
