The album La Forêt des Mal-Aimés was subject of a remix album released in March 2007, a year after the release of the album. Entitled 2 X2 (read as "deux par deux" in French, meaning "2 by 2", it was a 24-minute limited edition / short album by Les Disques Audiogramme, that included remixes of tracks all from Pierre Lapointe's album La forêt des mal-aimés plus one unpublished track that was introduced titled "Le Maquis", written by Philippe B. the guitar player in Lapointe's backing band.

Philippe Brault,not to be confused with Philippe B., was co-arranger of the album with Jean Massicotte. The two had won the Félix in 2006, for their arrangement and musical direction of the La Forêt des Mal-Aimés show.

Naming

The naming comes from a reference to Pierre Lapointe's major hit "Deux par deux rassemblés" that was his single best-known single from the album

Influences

The varied remix shows the diversity of its participants, like Jean-Philippe Goncalves remixing the title track from La Forêt des Mal-Aimés album, Kid Koala in his instrumental, the rhythms of Ghislain Poirier and Jérôme Minière in two separate mixes of "Deux par deux rassemblés". Jean Massicotte made the remix of "Au nom des cieux galvanisés".

Booklet

The cover of the release was innovative, and flexible. The upper part of the cover was a flexible head shot of the artist Pierre Lapointe. But the purchaser of the album was offered four more alternative cuttings of a morchella, a snail, a carnivore animal and a flower which the purchaser could use replacing the head photo of the artist according to choice.

The album 25-1-14-14 is another offshoot of the Pierre Lapointe album La Forêt des Mal-Aimés being a limited release of just 1000 copies in vinyl that has the same content of 2 X2 (also known as Deux par deux) but without the additional "Le maquis" track introduced in 2X2 remix album. The release was clearly destined for true enthusiasts as a collectors' item or for interested DJs in using Lapointe's work.
