The example sounds terrible!
Why ruin an almost perfect album this way?

Agree at 100% Hakan
I am unsure what to think about that "thing". Leaves me complete confused.
I clicked on the YCCMA sample and my girlfriend came over to my room to see if my computer had crashed and makes some terrible noise (not joking!)

When something like that is released, does Paul Simon receive a copy first and listens to the whole thing? Then agrees and says: sounds great, yah, go on... ?
I am unable to listen to it for 1 or 2 minutes. Drives me insane.

Here a good remix of Diamonds created more some years ago:i think it uses not the album version but a demo:

But my favorite Paul's song remix. Not from Graceland, but Late in the Evening:

That re-mix of YCCMA is by a long way the worst thing I've ever heard.... Paul Simon apparently approved the project!
I just hope that in the future they invent a way of "unhearing" something... until that time I don't know what to do....

That Diamonds(remix) you showed us, it is the original bass-line and original singin. Just a constant tick-tick-tick-tick has been added... that does not fit to the rest well...

but yes, the bass and singin is wonderful.

Thank you Bodo although I fear that the damage is done... Let's hope that these clowns / "artists" don't appear in the 2018 tour...

Has anyone actually listened to the Graceland remix? My first thought was that it sounds about as generic as the Chainsmokers do... Very surprised the Paul endorsed the remixes, if he indeed did.
