Source-derived summary

Emotion Remixed + (stylized as E•MO•TION REMIXED +, symbol read as "plus") is the second remix album by Canadian singer Carly Rae Jepsen, released through Universal Music Japan on March 18, 2016. In the vein of Kiss: the Remix, both Japan exclusives, Emotion Remixed + compiles eight remixes of singles released from her third studio album Emotion (2015), and two new tracks: "First Time" and "Fever". The compilation features contributions by Bleachers, the Knocks and a cohort of collaborators from her Emotion sessions.

"First Time" was given a limited promotional release. The new songs were subsequently included on Jepsen's companion release Emotion: Side B (2016); and were given a second Japanese release through the country's exclusive reissue of the EP in 2017. Remixed + was primarily supported by Jepsen's two headlining performances at Popspring 2016 in Tokyo and Kobe.

Background and release

The new renditions on Emotion Remixed + were previously released throughout 2015, several as a part of the original singles' accompanying remix packages. The compilation features contributions from returning musicians and future collaborators. Jepsen worked with Jack Antonoff during the production process of Emotion, though his contributions did not make the final cut. Antonoff's remix of "I Really Like You", released under his Bleachers moniker, premiered through Stereogum on July 9, 2015; following the blog's exclusive Blasterjaxx remix earlier that April.
