TOP-Remix by the master himself, remaining rather boring

As a big fan Avicii I could hardly wait for the Release of the exclusive Avicii Remix. Today at 00:15 clock it was finally over. Since 6 remixes are a good offer to 2.99, I immediately bought the entire album. In short: really stands out is in fact only the long-awaited "by Avicii Avicii" remix, the remaining tracks act more like filler and are relatively unspectacular.
I would therefore enter into detail on the "Avicii Remix", and lose a few words about the other titles.

01. Addicted To You (Avicii Remix):
Hardly ID was now an eagerly anticipated so expectantly. For the first time played in heavily modified form of the "Lights All Night Festival 2012", it was then pretty quiet at this track. As most already believed that the ID was gone forever from the scene, the good Lord Bergling fumbled it back out of his drawer and connected them sent with the acapella of "Addicted To You". Now the following happened: Because at that time (June 2013) was the album TRUE not yet published, held a lot of fans this remix long time for the final album version, and were then equally baffled as disappointed as on the album ultimately a much was included shorter and boring orchestrated version. Even more excitement spread through the fan community wide, as this in turn believed dead Remix anmoderiert few months later, Pete Tong as "World Exclusive" on the British radio station BBC Radio 1 was played. Since shortly before the David Guetta Remix was released, the rumors about a "Addicted To You" remix album were officially confirmed.

The song begins, Avicii-typical, with a bassline, while slowly building up a tune in the background. The intro ends with a break, all synths silenced and a lonely piano strums softly and slowly to himself. Now is the distinctive voice of a Audra Mae, which interestingly enough, at first not 100% sings in the right tone, but this is intended MMN. The piano is faster and louder, and the chorus is again the bassline heard. Immediately after the sung chorus follows the drop, which turns very powerful and memorable and only gives the song its distinctive Avicii-typical character. The 2nd verse has a slightly different melody, instead of the piano is now in the background a rapid staccato melody heard. The drop is the same, the outro and the 5:32 minute track is coming to an end after about nurnoch follows.

Rightly this remix of Avicii is played regularly at his concerts. The material is much better for live performances than the bland and way too short guessed original. After just 8 months made it this ID to a release, which is unusually fast for Avicii ratios. At the same time, this song is the first single of the end of March ernscheinenden remix album "True: Avicii by Avicii". It will be interesting if the other title can keep up with this beauty!

02. Addicted To You (David Guetta Remix):
On the musical exultation fireworks immediately following the devastating sound bomb. Because of this remix is ​​so underground bad that you have to ask yourself seriously, if it still goes Mr. Guetta quite well.

Structurally, this remix David Guetta's like recently released single "Shot Me Down". On the bland intro followed by a radical break, then sets Audra Mae's singing a, accompanied by a melody that so clearly to the of "Shot Me Down" reminds that one might think, Guetta was thus itself parodieren.Ebenfalls almost identical to the Now einsetztende drop. Insignificant deviations in the second chorus, then again the drop until it is finally delivered to the soporific Outro of this musical insult.

A shame that there has David Guetta actually managed to bring this April Fool at the man, and once more a proof that it is nurmehr him lately to the coal and creativity of the greed has fallen victim.

03. Addicted To You (Sick Individuals Remix):
It can only go uphill. And indeed: Up to the chorus of this remix sounds very promising. However, the drop falls for my taste a bit too thin, here I would have expected a bit more variety to the verses. After several listens I'm come to the conclusion that this track in nightclubs and festivals sure is extremely high because of the relatively thin bass is amplified to large boxes several times and the remix itself in its design "stadium-character "possesses.

04. Addicted To You (Albin Myers Remix):
There is little appreciable to this boring adaptation. Except that the strange synth in the chorus is more than inappropriate. This tone superimposed literally singing the song and can act like a cheap bootleg produced. The most boring of the track is in my opinion the outro. A blunt bassline and an almost unprocessed Amen Break conclude this imperfect sound experiment.

05. Addicted To You (Ashley Wallbridge Remix):
After Avicii Remix the second best track on this compilation. A dreamy, trance-like melody and a powerful, bass-heavy drop are balm for my spoiled ears!

06. Addicted To You (Bent Collective Remix):
Unfortunately, no fitting conclusion to this remix compilation, and the "boredom-degree" roughly comparable to the Albin Myers Remix. Somehow reminds me of this track a bit too slow guessed 90s Euro-dance music. Maybe that's even intends only the singing does not fit unfortunately absolutely in the overall picture into. Processing vocals acts like a very bad together gemixtes Mashup here. The melody is unfortunately just too far away from the original!

Finally, my personal conclusion:
This compilation is quite "balanced" by the song selection ago. In addition to the absolutely brilliant and unique Avicii Remix and the stadium-ready Sick Individuals Remix and the trance-influenced Ashley Wallbridge Remix, you get on the other side to feel how much electronic music has degenerated in recent years.
As an old idea Fuchs I advise the reader but nevertheless to buy the entire album. The price / performance ratio is just simply unbeatable because of the 3 individual titles would be proud sheets 3.87, which exceeds the cost of the entire compilation lot.
