All-Star roster of celebrity producers celebrate the king of pop with the release of  Michael Jackson: The Remix suite. In stores October 20th

Universal Motown Records has enlisted the hottest producers in the game to pay homage to Michael Jackson by remixing their favorite tracks from the Motown era of The Jackson 5’s timeless catalog of gems and jams.
Akon, Polow, The Neptunes, Stargate, Dallas Austin, Salaam Remi, and Mark Hoppus (Blink-182) are just a few of the superstar producers who are featured on the hotly anticipated album, MICHAEL JACKSON: THE REMIX SUITE, in stores October 20th.
Boasting 12 innovative renditions of popular hits such as “ABC” and “Dancing Machine,” along with obscure classics like “Maria” and “Skywriter,” MICHAEL JACKSON: THE REMIX SUITE follows Universal Motown’s innovative four-part digital music suite series, which was released online every two weeks from August 25th to October 6th.
“It’s no secret that Michael Jackson’s phenomenal talent inspired countless entertainers,” says Universal Motown President Sylvia Rhone, who spearheaded the making of MICHAEL JACKSON: THE REMIX SUITE. “But his music also inspired many of today’s finest producers. That’s why we thought it would be exciting to invite them to put their own unique spin on his work.
From Michael’s amazing vocals to the great melodies, grooves, and arrangements―the material they had to work with is so incredibly rich. It’s inspiration feeding inspiration and the results are fantastic.”
