hmmm sounds like a pretty basic club remix. Certainly nothing cutting edge

what is cutting edge is how Prince continues to market himself and his music

good for him even if some of us would like to see him do it differently

What then would be the really interesting part of the single if I would ever find it on this continent?


I'm not even sure that this is going to be a commercial CD-Single. From what I've heard, it may only be intended as a DJ Promo CD-R. So far, to my knowledge, the only track released commercially is the French iTunes-only Icon remix.


The end of video says their will be a release on multiple online sites, including iTunes, Amazon, etc. It's not clear if that'll be just the Icon mix or the whole track list you posted, but it should be on more than just the french iTunes. Perhaps on tuesday.

Odd marketing of this album. There were some initial minimal promotion, then nothing until first the radio release of Better with Time a couple of weeks ago and now this video on YouTube. Anyone know how long the exclusive deal with Target was for?

Sounds very like Rave Into the Joy Fantastic-remixes, so nothing refreshing in my opinion.
Boy, how the man can play drums with one finger and can play keyboard with one finger two, for at least 8 beats and loop it over and over again.
Real music by real musicians, wink
Made me laugh he even closed his eyes, like he was playing something heavenly, a bit embarrissing.
Not my cup of tea.....

oh that's very nice. i don't usually get worked up over his weird tactics
anymore but if that truly is his official youtube channel than i consider
it to be the ultimate slap in the face.

i just wrote my first ever angry customer email to lotusflower.com.

not that it will do any good, but i just had to vent some steam here. what
a load of utter bull.

sad

I like wHAT I have heard so far....sounds great for a club and Prince knows this is the perfect track to remix and release - and good on him for choosing David A.

And people that think this "shit" is easy and it takes 5 minutes to remix...think again. It ain't. I am a pro remix artitst and it's not as quick as this short video looks.

Why the hell is there a video for the "making" of the remix? Are we supposed to bow down and metaphorically lick this guy's balls and worship his "talent" because he can do a remix? Not to mention a shit remix at that. Talk about egotistical...

I wonder how he got the job...check out the co-founder of this guy's company...

I'm not doubting their professional skills, more the guys taste. This really doesn't add anything to the experience. A shame though; a really funky remix would be fun.

Mix is shit by the way, bad eurodance from ten years ago. And I mean that in a bad way. Sounds like it DID take 5 minutes to mix.

Yeah I hate it when these guys don't use actual instrumentation and sound elements from the original track. It just sounds like a mash up with a generic
dance tune. Did you hear one new beat or effect that made you go, thats new?
same old shit madonna & co has been doing to their tracks for years.

D- Must try a lot harder.

does anybody know what kind of synth this guy is using? the first one is a juno, the second one where he is sliding his index finger on i don't know. thanx in advance y'all!!!


It's an Alesis Andromeda A6.. one of the coolest analog (but digitally controlled) polysynths ever made. That slide thing is a ribbon, which you can use to assign all sorts of parameters to. The synth has 16 voices, each consisting of 2 oscillators, and it's 16 part multitimbral (meaning that it can play 16 different sounds at once). It has 2 filters, one based on the moog ladder filter (like the minimoog), and the other on the oberheim sem filter (oberheim used to be a staple in Prince's sound in the early 80's).

A friend of mine used to have one, which he sadly had to sell so he could pay the rent for his house.. lol. They used to be really expensive, but nowadays they go for $1500 - 2000 secondhand.

nah can't be legit - one channel friend has got a 'Prince MJ Tribute', which is just TV memorial graphics and a shady bootleg of a P aftershow rendition of Billie Jean from heaven knows where or when...

What's killing me on this thread is the ones going to bat for it & it's only cause some of us wants to save face. I'm a huge P fan, but junk is junk. This will not enhance ANY album sales at all. Yes i've questioned from day 1 why this album/songs aren't getting any airplay & remixes like this won't change that. I haven't brought an R. Kelly album since 05' but he knows how to remix a song.

Why does Prince have such bad taste with remixes? They always sound like this!!
