Hi,
there are some Hardstyle remixes out of songs from other generes (like the Headhunterz ones) and I have some nice ideas which songs could need some hardstyle vibe but I don´t know how to approach this.
Let´s immagine I want to leave everything the way it is, just speed the track up to 150bpm and replace the clubkick or whatever with a Hardstylekick. How can I do this without it sounding muddy?
How to make Hardstyle-Remixes?

Simple answer is that you can't. There's a few ways which might get you close, but in most scenarios it's impossible.
Some possibilities are:
- Checking if the part you want to use is also available without kick and then simple loop it
- filtering out the low ends (always leaves you with a bit of kick)
- Ripping the kick and removing it using reverse polarity (kinda tricky)

That´s a pity
Well I will try the second method you listed, that´s quite easy and for some songs it might work

Ah ok
I will try it this way than and hope some of the songs I have in mind work well as bootlegs.
And do you also do remixes like just taking the melody and synthesizing different sounds or trying to resynthesize the original sounds or do you always leave the song in the background in your DAW as it is and maybe just add percussions and bass and perhaps layer a new synth over it?

Well, HHZ often gets offers about making remix' of popular tracks, so he just get the stems for them send right away by the artist, which ofcause gives him lots of posebillites of making a more proffesional and complex remix. What I like do, is to take a look on youtube for any tutoritals on the synths which is in the track I want to remix, and then search the internet for an acapella (not that hard to find, lots of tracks have an acapella-version nowadays
