Jason Nevins is also on the remix; mentioned on his MySpace blog I think. There was another thread for this song before somewhere; someone else mentioned it first there.
On the unofficial tip (I assume) Katy's friend DJ Mia Moretti has remixed the song. It's kinda weird and not really my style.

Jason Nevins was a given for Miss Perry.
I wish they would have Morel or Aude do some remixes for this one.

1. Waking Up In Vegas - Calvin Harris Extended (5:36)
2. Waking Up In Vegas - Calvin Harris Radio (3:46)
3. Waking Up In Vegas - Manhattan Clique Bellagio (6:20)
4. Waking Up In Vegas - Manhattan Clique Luxor Dub (6:08)
5. Waking Up In Vegas - Manhattan Clique Radio (3:52)
6. Waking Up In Vegas - Nevins Club (6:43)
7. Waking Up In Vegas - Nevins Dub (6:04)
8. Waking Up In Vegas - Nevins Radio (3:26)
9. Waking Up In Vegas - Original Radio (3:24)
The best of the bunch is the Manhattan Clique mix, specially the Dub. The Calvin mix is kinda messy, electro-ish but still fun and great. Nevins is not as bad as I expected, at least sound kinda different from his usual style, without that happy feeling on it. Nice pack for this song =)

Did Nevins produce a melodic mix which follows the original chord progression? I heard a remix on the radio today that seemed like his style, complete with the usual guitars and synths he uses, but it was not the Electrotec edit.

Aw, man. I hope that mix that I heard surfaces. It sounded so much like his style... I could have sworn that he did it. It was really nice too. |

For sure! Brilliant choice of chords that really compliments the vocals. It makes the chorus harmonies really shine... they don't really stand out as much in the original version of any other mixes.

Definitely. There's also a very subtle sound effect in background every 16 bars or so that kind of sounds like a slot-machine chime. It's kind of brilliant, even though I can't quite figure out what it is. |

Clear winner on this one is the Manhattan Clique mix, although why, why, WHY did they make that drop-out at the first chorus? There needs to be some full BEATS to keep the energy going, not kill the whole buildup of the first verse - man this bugs me! Enough to do some chopping and make my own re-edit using the 2nd chorus as the first? You betcha.  |

It was really nice too. I caught it on the radio and recorded a snippet of it on my phone. Can anyone possibly ID? www7.zippyshare.com/v/60784148/file.htmlSorry it's soft and there's talking in the BG. It really sounded to me like a Nevins mix. |

The X-Mix doesn't change much, but they do keep the chord progressions going after the vocals are over at the end of the mix. I hadn't noticed that Manhattan Clique stagnated the chords until I heard what X-Mix changed. It's a nice little touch. |

Here's the yet-unnamed mix w/video: uhmm... that totally sounds like a typical nevins remix!!! maybe there's a "Rhythmic Radio Mix" that wasn't released yet. I've seen Nevins has been doing 2 different mixes recently (Ashley Tisdale, Livvi Franc) so maybe he did the same with this song. |

That's exactly what I was thinking.... but why wouldn't they release this along with the package? His electro mix pales in comparison, even though this follows his cookie-cutter formula with the guitars and synths. If he did end up doing this mix, he really produce a winner. It's fantastic. :) |

Waking Up In Vegas (Richard Vission Remix) 6:16 it's messy, like Richard's usual style it basically uses the "Waking Up In Vegas" line all over the mix, and the chorus part once, sounds more like they were two different mixes in one. it's just OK IMO |

I hadn't noticed that Manhattan Clique stagnated the chords until I heard what X-Mix changed. It's a nice little touch. Does anyone have a version of this song that they created without the drop out in the beginning? It does make the song and mix sound better without ruining the momentum. Also Jason Nevins mixes that were official seemed to be missing something, so I would love to check out a mix in his true style for this song. After all, this song is truly a hit, so I need good mixes and Manhatten is the true pick- but feel short as mentioned above :( |

(It was posted above) www.youtube.com/watch?v=bi0-PWAwkUwIt's Jason's alternate mix of the song, in his usual style, complete with electric guitars and elements of the original song. It's a shame it didn't get released to the masses--it definitely beats his Electrotec mixes. (I realized Jason was the one who made it because some of the drum programming is exactly the same in this mix.) |
