There are rumours that the remix album is titled "Dawn of Chromatica". I believe when I see a confirmation.

She really about to drop this and make zero effort huh lol. Remember the "Million Reasons" hustle? She ain't got time for that anymore lol.
I eventually grew into the sound of Club Future Nostalgia but this one sounds like it will be much more my kind of thing.

I really like the "911" (Charli XCX), "Free Woman" (Rina Sawayama) and "Babylon" (Bree Runway) remixes, the three I was looking forward to the most. they all stay pretty loyal to the original melodies and even production, but switch if up enough that it's not a basic, "here you go, a new subpar verse from the featured artist" kind of remix situation. I'll check out the rest when it's officially available tonight but I'm very much excited about this!

I love the album, especially 1000 Doves is a gem I didn't see coming!!!

Halfway through so far. I didn’t care for the first three tracks but everything after has been pretty good. Not sure what drugs are needed to decide it’s better than the original album tho.

??? Lmao this is terrible
“911” would’ve been the standout had they not given Charli the mic, “Alice” and “Sour Candy” were fun but the rest were… something.

"Sine from Above" is my favorite from the regular album but the remix is absolutely horrible.

I'm always here for Venezuelan acts to get more recognition but the minute ARCA started saying "metelo, sacalo" on the "Rain On Me" remix, I had to skip.
"911" is really good.

Idk what y'all expectations for a remix album is like these days...but this is about what I expected it to sound like.
The only remix that I'm gonna replace the original with is "Free Woman".

I was hoping she was just handing the songs off to remixers to rework. I didn't realize so many would be reworked as collabs. Most of the songs have just been made messier/fussier.

This is not my cup of tea but none of her remix albums have been. This one is just getting more press because of the lack of GaGa, unlike her remix albums for The Fame/Fame Monster and Born This Way.

911, remix or not, is always incredible to me. Lady Gaga - Dawn Of Chromatica A brilliantly entertaining remix album If 2020 stands as The Worst Year In Living Memory for a great many people, then the apocalypse did offer one bright light of salvation: namely, Lady Gaga’s extraordinary pop statement ‘Chromatica’. A return to the plastic creativity of her pop roots, ‘Chromatica’ re-connected Gaga with the dancefloor, an explosion rainbow of fluorescent tones that never knowingly went under-stated. Remix collection ‘Dawn Of Chromatica’ is a sister piece, one that brings some fantastic into her orbit. A hodge-podge of styles, genres, and scintillating noise, it’s a broad, ruthlessly entertaining compilation that illustrates just how much music actually went into the direct, finesse’d pop that illuminated ‘Chromatica’. The highs on display are truly interstellar. LSDXOXO and COUCOU CHLOE go back to back in order to open ‘Dawn Of Chromatica’, delivering dancefloor bumpers in the process. Tasked with remixing (respectively) electro thumper ‘Alice’ and fan anthem ‘Stupid Love’, the two dole out digi-production that comes wrapped in effervescence. Arca deconstructs ‘Rain On Me’, and their mosaic-like approach has a sly, subversive edge; Rina Sawayama and Clarence Clarity team up for an arena-worthy take on ‘Free Woman’ while Charli XCX and A. G. Cook deliver a stellar remix of ‘911’. Not everything lands, however. ‘Sine From Above’ is reworked by Chester Lockhart, Mood Killer, and Elton John – the dense effects seem to distort the song, and it’s perhaps a case of too-many-cooks. The main takeaway from ‘Dawn Of Chromatica’ however is Gaga’s curatorial ability, and the even strength of talent on display. Capable of moving from Ashnikko’s playful digitalism through to the ballroom energy of the Jimmy Edgar and Bree Runway take on ‘Babylon’, it’s a relentlessly entertaining display. Coming ahead of jazz-fuelled standards album ‘Love For Sale’, this remix compilation is an excuse to adore Lady Gaga for her abilities as a cultural curator, one of this generation’s few – only – true interstellar pop talents. www.clashmusic.com/reviews/lady-gaga-dawn-of-chromatica

I mean thanks, but this album doesn't really enhance/improve/re-interpret any of the original songs for me.
But, thanks, I guess.
