Madonna to Release ‘Ray of Light’ Remix Album ‘Veronica Electronica’

Madonna has finally announced plans to release her long-shelved Ray of Light remix album, Veronica Electronica, nearly 27 years after the companion LP was first sidelined.

Ahead of Veronica Electronica’s July 25 release, Madonna has previewed the rumored-but-unreleased album’s “Collaboration Remix Edit” of Ray of Light’s “Skin”:

Veronica Electronica features seven Ray of Light-era remixes from late Nineties powerhouse producers like Peter Rauhofer, William Orbit, Sasha, BT, and Victor Calderone, plus the original demo of “Gone, Gone, Gone,” an unreleased track co-produced by Rick Nowels from the Ray of Light sessions.

The companion album was compiled and set for release in 1998, months after Ray of Light arrived in February of that year, but the LP’s multiplatinum, Grammy-winning success — coupled with a string of hit singles like the title track, “Frozen,” and “The Power of Goodbye” — ultimately shelved Veronica Electronica until it was unearthed for its July release. 

Veronica Electronica is available to preorder now on digital as well as silver vinyl. 

Madonna’s most recent studio album, Madame X, arrived in 2019; the now-six-year gap between albums is the longest of Madonna’s career.
