Yes Remixes is a remix album featuring the songs of progressive rock band Yes and was released in 2003. Taking material harking back from 1970's Time and a Word to 1980's Drama, Virgil Howe a.k.a "The Verge" (and son of Steve Howe) re-imagined Yes's music into a techno context, dramatically altering the band's sound.
While the result is considered to be interesting, most Yes fans – including both critics of progressive rock and techno – found Yes Remixes to be generally unsatisfying and it was greeted with lacklustre reviews upon its release by Rhino Records. Although it briefly dented the remix sales charts, the album failed to chart at all in the regular listings.
