well ok hiding the guys who did the remixes is ok
but the track names too ?
i don`t think i can`t vote since i can`t compare most of the tracks.
i`m not the super ae freak but after 6 tracks i think i didn`t recognize a sigle one ;)

Well why not just vote on the track you like the most? It wasn't a see-who-is-the-best-remixer competition. I would say the tracks have already been through the "is it a remix or not?" filter. All you need to do is commit to which one you like the sound of best. Jeez, how hard can it be?

no
this isn`t a "wich track do you like most" competition. it`s a remix competition.
of course the songs itself are interesting, some are outstanding, but i want to be able to COMPARE.

So on what merits would you like to be judging the tracks?
(I agree it would be nice to compare, but I don't think it should make a difference to your vote)

I don't understand why not. Are you saying that you can't accept that it's a proper remix unless you can tell what the original is? They wouldn't have got this far if they weren't accepted as being remixes.
Or do you feel that somehow the remixer might be cheating in some way?

what is a remix ?
a new track ? possible a good track by a great artist ? hopefully ?
but still it is based on a track i, possibly, don`t know = inpossible to compare
if it doesn`t count ok - gimme 15 random tracks i listen them 1 time and tell you wich i like most

Well that's one of the points I was trying to make. It shouldn't be an issue, whether you think it's a remix or not. You're supposed to trust that the organisers of any competition havesome sort of validation before approval and accepting that they qualify for entry, so you shouldn't have to consider it. Just accept that these are the ones you need to choose from and vote :)

i don`t know if i understand anus right there - but he speaks out my point.
xceque - if you really mean that = no remix competition.
it`s a "top xltronic" competition

I think maybe we're misunderstanding each other cos I honestly don't get why this is a problem :(
There's a competition and the judges decide if a remix is eligible for entry, choose winners, and from those winners the board members get to choose their favourite one. It seems simple to me.
ok, it's not the way I would have done things, but I wasn't on the voting team since I did remixes instead and can't say for sure what the behind-the-scenes voting was done, but it doesn't seem strange to accept the rules and cope with them.
In the end it's up to you if you vote or not, but if a crappy one wins by one vote I'm coming to blame you ;)

I agree entirely. I'd love to know whay tracks they were remixing and see if I can tell what bits have been used in the remix; try to see how it was done or something. It'd be really interesting, but I think that the shortlisted remixes should stand on their own and be judged accordingly.
I've accepted that they are remixes and I can hear Autechre parts in all of them, though I can't place which specific tracks for all of them. Maybe that's why I don't have a problem with them

yeah no problem, i`m used to be blamed *ggg*
and to be honest: i don`t give a fuck who remixed what and who gets a blowjob for free, how the competition is going and who wins.
but
a remix is a remix
and i will not point that out again.

As to whether voting should be based on how much work the remixer did on the song or just how wicked it sounds overall, that's a personal decision of the voter I guess. But everyone knows sucess in the music industry mostly has nothing to do with technical merit. Well, if you idea of sucess is selling the most CDs that is.
