[edit] Remixes

The Doors have recently allowed several dance/electronic music producers to remix their songs. Many believe that this is to introduce their music to a new generation. The remixes and their appearances are:

  • The 2002 compilation 'The Best of the Doors' was released with a Limited Edition Bonus Disc featuring several remixes of 'Riders on the Storm': Baez & Cornell 'Tunnel' Club Mix; Nightmares on Wax Remix; Ibizarre Remix, and; Spacebats Remix.
  • Snoop Dogg vs. The Doors - "Riders on the Storm (Fredwreck Remix)" Appeared in the video game Need for Speed Underground 2.
