There were over 200 “open source” remixes delivered to this fan website for Nine Inch Nails. Today I find out that a collection of 21 unofficial remixes is available for download via BitTorrent. There is actually a lot of good stuff there, it’s definitely worth of downloading.
I love it when you can find quality stuff for free like this, and it doesn’t come as a surprise to me because it’s known that Trent Reznor and the band have been offering some of the songs on Apple’s GarageBand format since “With Teeth” (previous to the newest album), so they make it easy for the fans to come up with great stuff like this.
Another example? LCDRemixed.com, a website that hosts a complete version of “Sound of Silver” from LCD Soundsystem (and calls it “Sounds Like Silver“). These guys are the team also responsible for remixing The Prodigy’s “Always Outnumbered Never Outgunned” and “Push The Button” from The Chemical Brothers (called “Flip The Switch“).
Pointing the obvious, if you wish to generate a “forward-thinking-like” response, you have to begin with your own actions and stepping at least a bit outside standard procedures. Great things may come from those actions.
