    The other day I was watching B4U music's "Just Request" show and ppl were requesting some old classic songs. However, they played new remixes of the same songs. Personally, I hate the whole 'western hiphop music fusion with Indian classic music'. First of all, they kill the song and second, the videos are so awkward. The so called "artists" wear such revealing clothes, which first of all kill the mood of the song and the also make the whole Indian culture look bad. Indians are becoming more and more westernized and they are turning to the worse side. These remixes is basically another name for stealing songs and killing them with stupid western beats and rap.

    Ok..Ok... I do like some tasteful remix song like that Jagjit singh's "kahin Door Jab Dil Dhal Jaye", but yet, songs like "Mere Naseeb Mein" and "Chodo Aanchal" are sooo bad. Somethig has to be done to this Remix trend which is westernizing our pure Indian Culture and Murdering some of the best Indian songs. Anyways, you can voice your opinion about remixes in this thread.

    Ya, most remixes that I have heard, especially of old hindi classics are rotten, but they have an appeal to the masses. So its most likely that they'll continue... Best thing is to turn of the TV or change channels.

    I hate remixes. They take the life out of the songs. Can't they make their own music, why do they have to spoil old classics?
