not looking forward to this at all...imo remixes are a disfigurement of the original song...nothing alike to a cover...especially seeing that modern day remixes are stupid dance club remixes by some DJ and have nothing really to do with the original song anymore...tbh Mess It Up already sounds disco enough to be played at a club without being remixed...(yes, I hate DJs and remixes about as much as Keith hates them, and rap LOL)

Basically stripped out the guitars and replaced with synthetic crap.Background sounds a bit like Do Ta Think I'm Sexy..geessh. Hard pass.

I've heard his show on the Studio 54 channel a couple of times. Here's the wiki entry for Tino Piontek, aka/ Purple Disco Machine https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purple_Disco_Machine

Regardless of the quality of these things (and they're usually unlistenable although this isn't the worst by a long chalk) I always find myself asking who they're actually aimed at.

Stones fans invariably hate them. So, when we exclude that (ageing) demographic, we're left with the sort of people who frequent clubs.

Nobody goes to a fucking club wanting or expecting to hear a mix of a new song by a bunch of octogenarians.

Could be worse, I suppose. After Bridges to Babylon came out, they released 11 different mixes/edits of both 'Anybody Seen My Baby' and 'Saint Of Me' and an eye watering and wallet-bursting 20 extra versions of 'Out Of Control'

Tell the tru',though. Maybe trouser-zip-bursting, if you liked some edits amongst a welter for that price.
And who wouldn't want a little semi-nostalgic jig and a larf at Studio Thrifty-4 to the Stains mixed with Rod The Mod, or whatevs?
Loosen up just for a mo', luvs, and Message It Up.
