Madonna Unleashes 'Veronica Electronica' with Rare Remixes This July

Madonna , the pop icon known for her reinventions and musical innovations, is poised to release a long-awaited project titled Veronica Electronica .

The album will feature rare and unreleased remixes from her acclaimed 1998 album Ray of Light , marking a significant return to the sonic experimentation that made her a pioneer in the industry, as reported by various music outlets.

According to sources close to the singer, the album is set to be digitally released and available on silver vinyl on July 25.

Fans can now enjoy "Skin (The Collaboration Remix Edit)," which has already been made available ahead of its official release. The project is part of Madonna's ongoing partnership with Warner Music, which she entered in 2021, bringing her impressive catalog back to the label that first launched her career.

Veronica Electronica is intended as an eight-track companion to Ray of Light , a project that Madonna originally envisioned in 1998.

However, due to the original album's success and a long line of hit singles, the remix project was ultimately placed on the back burner. Ray of Light was a monumental commercial success, selling over 16 million copies worldwide and earning Madonna four Grammy Awards , including Best Pop Album.

Industry insiders have speculated that Veronica Electronica may serve as a nostalgia trip for both fans and the artist, bringing back the late '90s musical genre of electronica. This genre, recognized for its hard-hitting electronic dance beats, was defined by influential acts such as Prodigy , Moby , Underworld and Fatboy Slim .

The album's title itself is a nostalgic nod, reflecting an era where electronica was perceived as a successor to alternative rock.

Many argue that the genre, while significant during its time, dwindled as the millennium approached.

As one source described, "Electronica had its moment, but it felt like it never really got its due. Madonna's return to this sound exemplifies her ability to elevate and reclaim musical styles."

Veronica Electronica will showcase a collection of newly edited versions of club remixes created by acclaimed artists like Peter Rauhofer , William Orbit , Sasha , BT and Victor Calderone .

Among the highlights is the inclusion of a previously unreleased original demo of "Gone, Gone, Gone," produced by Madonna in collaboration with Rick Nowels .

The track listing for "Veronica Electronica" is as follows:

**Side A:**

1. "Drowned World/Substitute For Love" – BT & Sasha Bucklodge Ashram New Edit

2. "Ray Of Light" – Sasha Twilo Mix Edit

3. "Skin" – The Collaboration Remix Edit

4. "Nothing Really Matters" – Club 69 Speed Mix Meets The Dub

**Side B:**

1. "Sky Fits Heaven" – Victor Calderone Future New Edit

2. "Frozen" – Widescreen Mix and Drums

3. "The Power Of Good-Bye" – Fabien's Good God Mix Edit

4. "Gone, Gone, Gone" – Original Demo Version

The upcoming release has already generated buzz on social media, with fans expressing their excitement over the announcement.

"I can't wait for this album! Ray of Light was revolutionary, and hearing fresh remixes is beyond thrilling!" one fan tweeted.

Such enthusiasm around the project has fueled speculation about potential tour plans or live performances nearing the release date.

In addition to the excitement surrounding the new music, other celebrity influencers have also weighed in on Madonna's career resurgence.

Popular music critics have noted the significance of reviving such a classic sound for a modern audience.

"Madonna continues to show us why she's the queen of reinvention. This project is a testament to her impact in pop music and the dance genre," noted one prominent critic.

What AI Can Really Do Now: 6 Key Lessons for Mastering Artificial Intelligence

I'd be happy if by the time I retire, we have [ artificial intelligence ] systems that are as smart as a cat," Yann LeCun , Meta 's chief AI scientist, Turing Award winner and one of the founding fathers of deep learning, tells as part of an ongoing series of conversations about the future of AI , "and that retirement is coming fast, by the way, so I don't have much time." LeCun sees the extraordinary promise of AI on the horizon. But so far we haven't seen this degree of success. While venture capital and corporate investment pours billions of dollars into AI dream factories promising revolutionary transformations—whether it's curing cancer or finally taming the email inbox—a stark reality persists: Most artificial intelligence initiatives collapse under their own ambitions. The gulf between technological marvel and practical utility resembles a paradise island ringed by shipwrecks—the quest for supreme omniscience has left th...
