Style for Remixes and Alternative Versions of Songs

(Re)mix and version information of a song represented by a track must be entered in parentheses after the track's MainTitle. The title of the mix/version and other proper names are formatted according to the CapitalizationStandard, the other parts of this extra information must be put in lower case.

For the guidelines to apply to OverClocked ReMix tracks, check OCReMixSeriesStyle.

This is an OfficialStyleGuideline. It is a sub-style of the more general ExtraTitleInformationStyle.

Example

Blue (extended mix)

Bust the Future Wall (DJ Visage remix)

The Great Rock 'n' Roll Swindle (remix Juhannus by Sami Koivikko)

Talking All That Jazz (Torti's Old School Mix of Edits dub)

Bear Witness (Automator's 2 Turntables and a Razor Blade re-edit)

Disciple (demo)

Discussion

IIUC The original artist is to be filed as the TrackArtist and the remixer in the TrackTitle in parantheses, right? But what about albums? Who should be the PrimaryArtist there: The original artist or the remixer? --DonRedman
