Okay so I browsed the web in my daily boredom and suddenly I stumble on a danish article after searching for Daft Punk. The link's here eeven though most of you don't understand danish =b
http://gaffa.dk/nyheder/view.php/news_id=1180/artist_focus=18553

What the article basically says is that Air releases a remix album "Everybody Hertz) and number one on the tracklisting is Don't Be Light (Thomas Bangalter Edit) It even says in the article that he'd be one of the remixers.

Well after searching on google for a while I find this: http://www.astralwerks.com/air/discography.html Which also states that Thomas Bangalter did an edit.

But after searching for a while iTunes etc. there only seems to be a track called Don't Be Light Edit. But after looking at its lenght and structure it seems like it's the Bangalter edit. I read a post where the reviewer praised the Bangalter edit for the good use of guitar and vocal and the Edit mix does the same.

Anyone who has any idea why it's not officially called Thomas Bangalter Edit anymore?

uhm, right... ignoring that spam...

i haven't looked around at all, but i would not use iTunes as your be all end all source. i'm fairly certain they've had some mess ups in the past, so they could very well just have the song mislabeled.

what you really should do is look at a copy (or scans) of the actual CD case/booklet and check that tracklisting/linear notes/copyright junk.

I think it's always just been called edit, and if you look at the discogs page you can see who edited it. He clearly only did it cos they're friends, it's a bit pointless if you ask me.
