Artist name inconsistency regarding remixes
This has been bothering me for a bit, so thought I'd throw it out: there's a bit of an inconsistency regarding who remixes are credited to. For example, most remixes are credited to their original artist, but Hello (Luke Da Duke Remix) is credited as "Remixed by Luke Da Duke" and a couple of other remixes like Connect and Never Enough are credited as "(original artist) remixed by (remix artist)".
imo, irrespective of the song name itself (since most remixes are named [song title] (remix artist's remix)), the fairest way of crediting everyone involved in a remix would be to follow the lead given in the last of the three aforementioned instances of artist credits. "Y remixed by Z" for remixes seems to me as a fitting way of avoiding any possible disputes and confusion by making things absolutely clearr.

Re: Artist name inconsistency regarding remixes
This is a mystery to me why they are written like this. Maybe because they didn't bother to find the original artist at the time. In total, there's 5 songs that begin with Remixed by :
Remixed by Dj Aerogroove Remixed by Luke Da Duke Remixed by Sanxion7 Remixed by Sanxion7 Remixed by Vospi Remixed by Luke Da Duke should be : Martin Solveig & Dragonette remixed by Luke Da Duke. I proposed changes for all those songs on the Song Corrections thread, but they are not listed atm. I pretty confident that those will be changed in the future but I can't say when.
