The Mixes is the 18-track remix collection by Franklin McKay — released August 9, 2013 on Franklin McKay Music. Six of his songs — “More Than a Memory”, “Someone”, “What Might Have Been”, “Destiny”, “This Christmas” and “This Pain” — reimagined as dance mixes, Top 40 mixes, A/C versions, an acoustic mix and karaoke versions. Same songs, new settings.
The Mixes is a CD-only album — the mixes themselves aren’t on streaming. The links below go to the original songs on Spotify, so you can hear where each mix began.

The idea behind The Mixes is simple: take six strong songs and hear them in new settings. The dance and club mixes turn “More Than a Memory” and “Someone” into floor-fillers, the A/C versions give “What Might Have Been”, “Destiny” and “This Pain” a radio-ready polish, and the karaoke versions hand the microphone to the listener. “Destiny” appears four times — including an acoustic mix and a version featuring Heather Rankin — and “This Christmas” gets a seasonal A/C take of its own. Across eighteen tracks, the through-line is the same one that runs through all of Franklin McKay’s work: strong songs, unforgettable hooks, and a voice that carries them. If you love Richard Marx or Michael W. Smith, this one’s for you.
