Mixes takes the idea of fading tracks to make them sound like one long song one step further by actually being one 25-minute-long song divided into eight segments. It was originally released as one track as BAM #42 - The C418 before later being released on Bandcamp as an album. The album features several remixes of tracks from BAM, 2, and the whatever directors cut. The entire album is licensed under CC BY 3.0.

Official descriptions

This is some really old material from when I was still learning the ropes of making music.
bps and mixes are really old records. I started making music in 2006, and both of these released in 2007, so bear that in mind when you listen to them and judge me for being a bad composer or something like that, lol.
Both of them are essentially the same thing. They are a compilation of songs that I made put into a mix. They used to be two singular songs, but I cut them up for the sake of making sense of it all.

I think you know the first six minutes already. But I said that.
And I hope you can enjoy the rest.
—C418, BAM

Trivia

  • This is the only track which remixes a song that never appeared on BAM (since the original version of Pink appeared as part of BAM #30).
  • While most of the album is upbeat and dance-like, the first part of this track is slower. Oddly, the original pluginwert was in a more similar style to the rest of the album.
  • Kitten is the longest track of Mixes.

Don’t you even dare
Oh my, oh my
Don’t break me
Don’t say that

Too much you might think
The color's really pink
Just pink

Don’t you even dare
Oh my, oh my
Too much you might think
The color's really pink

Don’t you even dare
Oh my, oh my
Too much you might think
The color's really pink

Don’t you even dare
Oh my, oh my
Too much you might think
The color's really pink

Don’t you even dare
Oh my, oh my
Too much you might think
The color's really pink
Don’t you even dare
Oh my, oh my
Too much you might think
The color's really pink

Don’t you even dare
Oh my, oh my

Connections

Trivia

  • This is the only track with full lyrics, although the lyrics are shorter than the original will.
  • will was also released on thesixtyone using the same title as this remix, Pink.
  • No other track from the whatever directors cut has ever been officially remixed, and Pink is thus the only connection to the whatever directors cut that is still available on Bandcamp.
