Remix Info Missing in Rekordbox / Beatport Link Tracks

I have noticed that when a remix or VIP track is listed in beatport link in rekordbox, it does not show the remixer or VIP in the file name. Example:

 Voltage - "Save Me From Myself" was released on 9/25/2020:

https://www.beatport.com/track/save-me-from-myself/13996681

The remix was just released on Hospital:

Voltage - "Save Me From Myself" (Harriot Jackson Remix) was released on 3/26/21

https://www.beatport.com/track/save-me-from-myself/14796813

In rekorbox, it shows the  Voltage - "Save Me From Myself" with the new artwork from the remix, but does not list the remixer "Harriot Jackson" -- I have noticed this on many other remixes, seems to be a global issue.

Hey Thesis,

That's because Beatport has not put that information into the ARTIST field; they have it in the MIX NAME field instead:

Unfortunately this is not something rekordbox can "merge" to show all together in the TRACK TITLE field.

Hi Pulse, thanks for the update! I added MIX NAME column in rekordbox and now have the remixer name for these tunes on beatport link!

It's not ideal -- I too prefer to have it as Mix Name (Remix Name) all in the Track Title, but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
