so are they basicly the same remix? it's very confusing.
if you listen to them, you'll hear that there are distinct differences.

What timing. Who needs these remixes for promo NOW??
well, it seems like they're timing the release to push the song up the dance chart so she hits #1. my only gripe is that "i rise" was released at all and delayed "crave" mixes, which should have been released while the song was doing well on AC radio. dropping all of the videos so quickly has added to the confusion.

this is embarrassing.

will the remixes be released tonight?

When will the remixes be released? The Offer Nissim rosh hashana remix is fantastic!!
we haven't even gotten the "crave" mixes yet, so probably 2020?

The whole DJ thing is so laughable. And the remix has no soul whatsoever. Bland 2010s music.
(But I’m not a remix person, so nevermind)
it sounds like something from the early 00s to me. i think this song is going to be really hard to remix. i don't think anyone should be remixing it except mirwais tbh. like shep and WO did in the old days.

I vaguely remember someone somewhere saying a video for IDSIF was filmed but I’m not sure
m made a reference to a possible video during the iheart interview (?) but it didn't seem like there were any specific plans. she was just speaking off the cuff like she sometimes does.

still no crave remixes?
they're probably waiting to release them when the song is in the top 10 of the dance chart so it goes #1, like what they did for "i rise." mystery why they haven't released tracy's remix yet though.

Great! Is this remix available on Spotify and Itunes?
not yet. i thought for sure it would be be out today but maybe they're going to release a whole bunch together? maybe next week?
-
the dub is nice. it's really baffling that they didn't send out the radio edit months ago. i could see it getting some dance or hot AC play.

The radio edit is superior to the full mix, but the best version is the live one. It has the best structure imo.
agree. how is the live version different?

I wish she would've done video for this instead of Batuka. Which is lovely and all, but certainly not single material.
I could've seen Crazy hitting the AC charts at least. Such a fab little ditty.
i don't know why they're not pushing it at AC. maybe because "crave" is still getting some play?

I Rise was a promo single too
Dark Ballet has a video and is also one of her favorites
"i rise" was remixed especially for pride, so i think that's why they decided to go with that before "crave." "dark ballet" doesn't seem very conducive to remixing tbh. ditto for "batuka."

Where are you all getting God Control from? I’d assume we’re getting Future remixes after Crave since the remixes are going in order by pre album release
it's just an assumption since it got a proper video and is one of m's favorite songs from the album. "future" was a pre-release "promo" single so i doubt there will be official remixes for that one or "dark ballet."

It is obvious they didn't want two songs competing in the Dance charts. They released I Rise so they waited for it to reach #1 first then announce this release of Crave.
maybe perfect sense but i wonder if radio edits might have gotten some dance radio play if they were released earlier. i suppose it could still happen but the song has peaked on AC already.

The same for me. It just didn't stick for whatever reason. None of the singles electrified me. I also don't have a problem with "trend chasing". I only see it as wanting to be current. You can be current and still produce something authentic and personal. Anyway, I like Mme X, but it just doesn't strike me, I guess. It's a very good album... Surreally, my favorite track still is Crazy (which most people here apparently think is filler pop trash for some reason...). I love Batuka, but the vocoder takes away the rawness it should have vocally, so that's... I love God Control. I Rise is great (except, as in Batuka, the vocal transformation strips away the emotional power of the song, when it should actually build to a climax). Crave is good. Faz is hot. Yeah.
i've only seen positive things about crazy on here. it's in my top 5.

I love the album but for some reason it’s had no longevity for me. I played it daily every day for the first month then I was off to other sounds. It’s got nothing to do with the caliber of the album because it’s stellar bit usually when an M album comes out, I’m obsessed with it for months and know every word after a matter of weeks. I played albums like Erotica, Bedtime Stories, Ray of Light, Confessions and Rebel for months on end but it’s been different with Madame. It came at a very difficult time in my life. I do take my hat off to her tho for releasing the album she wanted to release and thumbing her nose at what’s commercial for once but I have to admit I never had a problem with commercial, trend chasing Madonna because I never saw it as trend chasing. I always found albums like Rebel Heart and Bedtime Stories to be incredibly authentic for example and those are the albums that have been criticised the most for trend chasing. Madame X is probably going to be regarded like Erotica in years to come, a masterpiece.
same here. part of it, for me, is that it's not the kind of album you can just throw on while you're doing something like background pop music. there are a few tracks that you can do that with ("crazy," "crave," "i don't search if ind") but overall it demands that you pay attention. it's just not your average pop album.

yea. we are supposed to be getting "Crave Remixes" soon . it's a shame we can't get remixes from all the video's she has made from this era. Batuka, Dark Ballet, God control too.
yeah i wouldn't take this article/site too seriously. "crave" mixes are probably coming soon and i wouldn't be surprised if they release "god control" mixes after that.

At least they didn't speed them up like junior did on secret. That's the one thing that gets me about those remixes in that are sounds wobbly.
i agree but the technology is much better now. you can change the speed without changing pitch or chopping it up the way they used to.
On 8/18/2019 at 6:24 AM, jonski43 said:Not heard that before. I know she re-did CAC and NRM but the secret ones are definitely sped up even if it's a new vocal.
i never heard that about NRM. they're definitely sped up and "wobbly." i know she re-recorded the vocals for DCFMA.
-
i like how the strings are turned into a disco sound on the dj kue remix. i just wish her vocals were faster on all of these mixes. they're actually normal speed on the one slow mix (dj irene).

Cos Tracy Young is shit? I don't know why she insists on using her and Offer Nissim. They both sound incredibly dated and cheap.
I wonder if we will hear some of the remixes from the Remix Crave Promo on Apple Music? It should be interesting to hear what people have come up with...
i'm not a huge fan of tracy young but the clip of her remix sounds promising. nothing groundbreaking but at least you can actually dance to it:
the real reason it's not out yet is probably because they're waiting for "i rise" to run its course. i think they should have dropped the mixes a long time ago but "medellin" was still peaking and then "i rise" was released for pride.

i think the main difference is that the radio edit features the bridge, which i think is essential to the song. i guess the other version is better for clubs though.
