Motown Remixed

Motown Remixed is a 2005 compilation album containing remixed versions of Motown hits, released on May 24, 2005 by Motown/Universal Records.

Several hip hop and dance producers, including: Z-Trip, DJ Jazzy Jeff, The Randy Watson Experience, Salaam Remi, and Easy Mo Bee, took hit records by The Jackson 5, The Temptations, The Supremes, and others, and reimagined them in new styles. The Jackson 5's "ABC", for example, is reimagined by Salaam Remi as a crunk song, and Tranzition takes The Supremes' up-tempo "My World is Empty Without You" and transforms it into a ballad.

The iTunes Music Store version has several additional remixes in the album. An accompanying compilation, Motown Unmixed, features each track in its original version.
