ayu-mi-x 7 HOUSE / Acoustic Orchestra / Trance / ayu-ro mix + Limited Boxset II

[Picaflor 7/4]

I love how remix covers are different and connected. They're entirely different pictures that are connected and not just the same photoshoot but with slightly different angles for each.

So nostalgic...I'm remembering that I was an ayu fan before ayu-mi-x III was released. Of course everything was different back then. le sigh~

[TeamAyu2004]

^ Yeah, when everything was remixed and the remixes where good... miss those days

[bemanicho1]

I miss those 10 track singles... They were so awesome. Something to look forward to every few months.

YES!

[TeamAyu2004]

^ totally, I just went through all those last weekend and added them to my ipod! I was totally thrilled about it. Listen to it all the time at the gym now!

I can't say I was around for the 10 track singles (became a fan around Memorial Address era although not through the discovery of Memorial Address material), but I had to go through my iPod and delete a lot of stuff I don't listen to (120GB and had less than 8GB left). Let me tell you, half the remixes were garbage - look at the Daybreak single: I deleted everything but the "I Am..." (Night Clubbers mix). Now we may not get as many remixes, but the remixes we get are often of higher quality and effort. Examples include: HEAVEN (House Mix), Will (Wall5 Mix), blossom (Clockwork Yellow Remix), Rule (80kidz Remix), Ladies Night ~Another Night~.

I agree, so many of the older single remixes are such crap. I went and downloaded/listened to them all a while ago and really regretted it. they've definitely improved a LOT over the years.

[bemanicho1]

I feel the opposite. I think the remixes on her singles were overall a lot better back then than they are now. I personally loved the Daybreak single and thought there were many great remixes on that one, like the Brent rotary one, the "turn up the break" one, the "Huge Fairy tale remix," etc. Yeah, since there was so much variety of remixes, there would bound to be plenty that you didn't like and there were also some duds, but there were also many great, interesting/creative ones on the singles.

I don't know why, but I can't really get into most of the remixes on her recent singles. Like, they're not bad, but they're not that great either to me.

Edit//Actually...thinking about it some more, I'm probably look at the past through rose-colored glasses, lol. There were a lot of bad remixes tbh, especially on some of her older singles. I still think later on with the singles the remixes improved overall and there were definitely a lot of gems throughout the singles imo.

I just feel like most of the remixes sounded so amateurish and very weak. Not very much talent in some of those.

Thank you God!

Since Daybreak was singled out I have to jump in and defend it; most of the remixes were awesome! But I do agree that we seem to be getting a lot of awesome remixes recently. And I hope the trend continues cause 1 good remix is better than 7 blah ones.

[chocopockymaster]

Awww @ the Daybreak hate. ( ; ; ) I absolutely love the Daybreak single!

[Ayumiko]

I really hope this time the covers are creative and different...not like the silver & gold covers.

[Picaflor 7/4]

^were the ayumix 6 covers not creative and different?

I like 4 remixes from that single. "opening Run (JK's Extended Mix)", "I am... (Ram's Special 11Days Mix)", "I am... (Huge fairy tAle mix)", and "no more words (turn up the break mix)".

[Mintkisses]

The Daybreak single had some impressive remixes, some we're like "yeah ok next." Another single with amazing remixes was SEASONS. Other singles I would include in the list with good remixes are UNITE! and evolution~

I really miss a bunch of remixes on one single, it made the single worth the money and more of a pleasure to listen to.

[TeamAyu2004]

Yeah, the era with alot of remixes on one single was amazing, but when you have that many remixes theres going to be a few if not many that some people dont like. I for one favor the trance or house remixes over the slower stuff, so a lot of them dont spark my interest right off the bat, but they grow on me!

and as for Daybreak single... I love all the remixes on it! I am... is one of my all time fav songs and the remixes are just amazing!

[AyumiAi]

I think we still get a few remixes per single like m/b had microphone remix dlb regge last links orchestra and meaning of love piano it's just there are now 3 versions of the single so they get dispersed before there was only 1 version so all ten remixes were all on one single

[Zeke.]

Really to each his own but I disliked most everything on the Daybreak single as I have mentioned, including the God-awful HAL'S Mix of Daybreak. Way to ruin the power of the song. Original owns.

[Picaflor 7/4]

^and here, I thought I was the only one who thought that. They turned a powerful song into a really boring ballad.

[channy]

I just read the first page again and I wonder, why it says that the tracklist of the four albums are "unconfirmed". I thought those news came from an official source like TeamAyu or Ayu's avex website?
