142: 686:'s discography because it's the latter's non-notable project so I don't see how that logic wouldn't apply here and why you would argue against removing Walkzz's work when both works are equally non-notable. A remix is an official release by the original artist or sometimes by the remixer with permission (there is no such thing as officially self-published remixes), a bootleg is an unofficial recording published by the remixer but unapproved by the original 163: 249: 231: 74: 259: 53: 22: 516:, per my points in the discussion below that the section consists of unreleased remixes by Walker. Unreleased because they were merely uploaded to his YouTube channel with no proper distribution and they aren't even remixes because a remix is a piece of music made with permission from the original artist but there isn't any evidence to prove the listed remixes are made in that manner. 544:, and I'm surprised to see that this is controversial. It seems obvious to me that just because an artist is notable, every single thing they self-release on social media sites, video hosting sites, soundcloud, etc. would be listed on Knowledge (XXG). Is there really no style guide that already addresses this? — 718:
According to who? What you're saying is if Walker uploads a song to SoundCloud it's "unofficially released" as well, which makes no sense. Anything released by the artist himself is official, it doesn't have to be released under a label or made available for purchase and streaming. You don't need to
641:
A remix is released or given permission for release by the original artist or their label not the remixer. These self-published remixes by Walker are very likely bootlegs because they were made using his bedroom alias "DJ Walkzz" years before achieving mainstream success. No reliable sources exist
856:
Sure they are. Distribution includes digital consumption. It is impossible for recorded music to actually get into the hands of consumers aside from CD and vinyls and such so iterally what you're saying is every song in history that wasn't released on CD and was only available for streaming and
583:
Not an easy choice, but my two cents on this: If a "remix" (sometimes the artist might call it a bootleg) is published by a specific artist in mind, albeit released through a label or self-published on Youtube, it should be treated as an official remix. Of course, obvious bootlegs of unreleased
802:
states that officially-released "bootlegs", as you like to call it, can be included, and the "official" here refers to the primary artist, not the remix artist, so I don't even know what you're arguing about. For example, Walker's remix of "Hymn for the Weekend" shouldn't appear on Coldplay's
723:
No. Again, this is an opinion not a fact. I can remix somebody's song and put it on SoundCloud and call it a remix, you don't need permission from the original artist or label. Yes, they are not official remixes, but they are still remixes, and are released by Walker himself. Remixes are not

mediums of distribution. These remixes do not necessarily have to be made available for purchase on digital retailers for God's sake. Even the opinion piece you cited mentioned "official" and "unofficial" remixes, implying that both are remixes. Note that

dig through my comments and find flaws to back up your argument. When I said he isn't notable under Dotcom, I was saying that I'm against the idea of making a separate page and discography for Dotcom, I didn't really read what he wrote at the end.
857:
digital download doesn't count as an official release. Stop citing these random articles as if they must be right, you're just using them because they fit your argument. I'm tired of this back and forth just go for a RfC.
673:
Self-published music is unofficially released unless made available with distribution. The remixes listed here are not made available anywhere but on YouTube. DJ Walkzz is a non-notable alias of Walker and you once
659:, according to Knowledge (XXG)'s own definition, is a recording that was not officially released by the artist. These remixes are indeed released by Walker himself. Also don't use my username as the headline. 942: 565:
The remixes in question are officially released by Walker via his YouTube channel and/or SoundCloud. Music distribution includes digital consumption, and is not limited to physical copies.
356:, which I would arguably describe as a more reliable source then the YouTube ref provided earlier by that IP. Other media outlets too state that Walker is featured in the track, as shown 357: 651:
You are talking about official remixes, which are remixes officially released by the original artist or their label. These are self-published remixes. No contradiction here.

These self-published remixes by Walker are very likely bootlegs because they were made using his bedroom alias 'DJ Walkzz' years before achieving mainstream success.

states that bootlegs officially released by the artist can be added, there is no mention that the remixer must seek permission from the original artist.

Pure assumption, and their being released under DJ Walkzz doesn't change anything. They are all sourced from Walker's official YouTube channel. A

Not sure how to add this correctly sourced, but a new video came out 18 December for "Space Melody" which is stated to be official by Walker.

Most remixes you have heard, downloaded, or made are bootlegs—that is, using audio layers of any song without express approval from the artist.
