It would be very interesting to see a new trend in the evolution of Freestyle music. The other day I was listening to Shannon's "Let The Music Play" & "Give Me Tonight", both remixed by Junior Vazquez and a few other top remixers, and I feel as if this could be a positive alternative to your typical "Freestyle/Bass" remixes that you usually find on CD Maxi-Singles, etc. Seeing that the majority of clubs today won't dedicate 10 minutes worth of Freestyle music, I can see them playing a 10 minute house/trance remix, of lets say, Cynthia's "Change On Me" or Lisa Lisa's "I Wonder If....", totally remixed to cater to the club crowd. If people like the remix, they are going to go out and purchase the single, which would include the original Freestyle version, therefore exposing people to something new. There are so many remixers out there today such as Thunderpuss, Junior, Hex, Tony, Armand, Tracy, etc., possibly waiting for someone to come to them with an offer to remix a "classic" or a current single. If the opportunity is there, take advantage of it. If money is the issue, shop around. There are so many talented students/individuals (DJ's) who work out of their basements who are eagerly looking for a breakthrough in the music industry that would happily remix a track to your liking for a few dollars or even for the credentials. Shannon's singles were remixed to perfection and it definitely gave new birth to her music that came out almost two decades ago!
