Kimberley Locke - Change

American Idol alum Kimberley Locke has made a career for herself despite not winning the singing competition. She has had several hits and has quite a fan following.

"Change" is the first single off of her upcoming album. It's an amazing power ballad that truly shows of Kimberley's impressive vocal range.

This song has been transformed for dance radio and the clubs by Jason Nevins, Scotty K, Almighty and Bronleewe & Bose.

Jason Nevins provides a dance/rock hybrid mix that is totally radio friendly. This mix bears resemblance to his mix of "Since U Been Gone" by Kelly Clarkson from a few years ago. It's a good thing though.

Scotty K's is much more circuit-driven.

Almighty and Bronleewe & Bose's mixes are lot trancier and much more Euro-sounding than the other two. These could work on radio as well. The Almighty one is the pick of the bunch as the trancey production really complements Kimberley Locke's voice. Almighty's original remixes of new songs instead of remakes/covers are often quite noteworthy.

These mixes are supposed to be released as edits and club mixes on iTunes in the coming weeks.
