well, strictly speaking REMIXES are usually done by juvenile artistes who capitalise on the popularity of earlier songs. the original song is taken and a layer of new sounds are added. real remixes are:
chandramukhi remix (where dialogues from the film are added to the soundtrack, with a new heavy thumping beat.)
loosu pennE (the fast beat - where yuvan has just added a layer to the original song (he composed) to give it a fast tempo feel).
oh ho ho ilamai from varalaaru - the rabbit mix.
re-recording an earlier song, strictly speaking is not a remix. one can call it a remake. examples include:
adhO andha paravai pOla vaazha vEndum (Madrasi - music Iman)
engEyum, eppOdhum sandhOsham by Malgudi Shuba (private album)
ARR's thottaal poo malarum does not fit into this category, as the tune is completely new.
besides those above, if a tune of an earlier song is used for a new song, it is simply a copy.
having said all these, i feel that a MD of yuvan's calibre should stay away from remixes and remakes and leave them to lesser MDs like Vijay Anthony and D Iman.
note: thee pidikka and namma kaattula are neither remixes nor remakes and definitely not copies. parts of old songs (originals) have been inserted for nostalgia and other effects. i personally enjoyed both songs very much.
Never argue with a fool or he will drag you down to his level and beat you at it through sheer experience!

".. First Kanda naaL mudhalaai, now karpoora naayagiye, next what? Marudhamalai maamaNiye?.."
vijayr, padupaavi, I dont know if you are clairvoyant or karu-nakku or something but what I do know is that as we speak, there's a movie being made, named, well, marudhamalai, and whats more, in a stroke of 'genius', the director has got the MD to remix , what else, "marudhamalai mamaniye"..with some atrocious eve-teasing lyrics. There must be a TADA enacted specially for our kodambakkam directors

Yeah, I just saw it ennaththa solla ...
These guys could all join together and make non-TFM devotional remix CDs if they want to, atleast it will reach the devotee crowd.

HJs newest rip of Ayyappan song
I'm surprised this lift from Bheema has not caught anybody's attention here;
Listen to the song; Ragasiya Kanuval, the lines Irage Irage mayil irage is straight lift of the famous Ayyappan chant;
"Onnam thirupadi saranam ponn ayaapa...."[/b]

Thee Pidikka is no original The bass rhythm that comes throughout the song is a direct lift(Yuvan has said and fans can say, inspiration) is from Raghav's Let's Work It Out album.
Thottal Poo Malarum is definitely not a remix.

>>parts of old songs (originals) have been inserted for nostalgia and other effects<<
NOV, this practice is now too frequent and often not for 'nostalgia' or any such effect but to simply make it catchy and like you said 'make quick bucks'...Even if we agree on the 'nostalgia' thing, it only proves that people want to listen more to old stuff (or old wine in new bottle) and do not care about the "original" works of these novices...
