The Beyoncé Remix Round-Up


Yes, its almost August and there's still no sign of an official new single or album from King B. As reports run riot that the star has scrapped 50 songs from her new album, and that Beyoncé simply can't get it together resulting in numerous pushbacks, there's not a whole lot to celebrate in the Beyhive. A representative from Beyoncés camp has since denied all the claims, but you still can't help but feel a little suspicious. Would she really perform at the Superbowl, debut multiple new songs and sign a 50 million dollar deal with Pepsi (that included music-related funding) and really have NO idea of a rough release date? I digress.

Anyways, there may not be a whole lot to celebrate over in Team B but there is something to pop a party popper over, that being all these random ass remixes appearing from nowhere. Being the generous blogger that I am, I present to you the latest Beyoncé remixes to hit the web all available at a click of a button. Don't say I'm not good to you! With these remixes dropping like flies, there are surely more to come in due course and do bear in mind, that some of these mixes haven't been officially confirmed by Beyonces camp or by the producer, but without any further delay, let's crack on..

Standing On The Sun (SOS Reggae Mix) - Kicking things off with what is probably the most unusual remix of the bunch, this is the 'SOS Reggae Mix' of 'Standing On The Sun'. As the title suggests, the original track has been fused with reggae and dancehall beats and a cool addition from a Jamaican-flavoured hypeman. The track has received positive reviews all round, and I couldn't agree more. It twerks all over the rumoured full-leaked version of the track. Release this already Bey!




Grown Woman (Monsieur Adi Remix) - What probably is the most publicised remix of the bunch, here is the 'Monsieur Adi Remix' of Pepsi commercial track, 'Grown Woman'. Giving the track a much needed face life with surging additions of a thumping base line and robotic tinged beats, this remix is heading straight for the dance floor. Without a shadow of a doubt, my favourite 'Grown Woman' remix to date.



Standing On The Sun (Tiesto Remix) - Dance music legend 'Tiesto' (apparently) puts his spin on the H&M commercial cut. Completely spinning it on its head, he adds thumping dance breaks that go hard with a head banging bassline. Not one that'll appeal to everyone but I love it.



Standing On The Sun (Country Club Martini Crew Radio Edit) - Making the track a more feel good affair, here is the 'Country Club Martini Crew' remix. Its a pretty by the numbers dance remix, nothing too special other than the fact its probably the most uplifting remix of the bunch. Though out of all the remixes, this is probably the most likely one to hit the club scene.



Grown Woman (Nervo Remix) - The craziest remix of the bunch is of course brought to you by the sisters of 'Nervo'! Adding a frantic dance break with a cool house beat, this would really tear up the dance festival circuit. Again, not for everyone but again, I love it!
