Beyonce’s “Crazy In Love” is a guaranteed hit on just about any dancefloor. Almost 8 years after it’s release it still get’s a reaction like it was brand new. Today we talk about how we play this song and some songs we mix after it.

Hey JD & Spring, I sent you two MP3s of this track, One is my quick hitter remix of this track with an acapella out all quantized(of course!)I did it back in 2005, so check your gmail, as I explained further there.

I had to dust this remix off, I forgot I did the remix to it, and its funny Spring mentioned moving the Jay Z verse up, because thats how I had done my remix. Theres a lot of Hip Hop that when they feature a rap artist on the remix of a song, you usually hear it first before the artist goes into the singing verse, so thats what I had in mind as well!

I think both your mix examples on this ep are really good choices of songs to play after it. They both fit equally nice. I would on occasion mix out of Crazy In Love with Ameries’ “One Thing”, however “One Thing” is not in the same key as Crazy is, so what I did was make a seperate edit in the same key as Crazy, and used only that re-key mix with Crazy In Love only.(that would me the other track I sent) Ameries song has a D.C. Go-Go flavor to its beat, so it also works in nice with the Crazy In Love Beat as well!
