4: The Remix is an extended play (EP) by American R&B singer Beyoncé, released through Columbia Records on April 23, 2012. Prior to the release of the extended play, Beyoncé organised a remix competition for her then-upcoming single "End of Time". The remix was chosen by a judging panel and the winner of the competition was Radzimir "Jimek" Dębski.

4: The Remix contains six remixes of the songs from Beyoncé's fourth studio album, 4, released in 2011; a Dave Audé remix of "Run the World (Girls)", Isa Machine remix of "Countdown", Lars B remix of "Best Thing I Never Had", DJ Escape and Tony Coluccio remix of "Love on Top" and two remixes of "End of Time" by WAWA and JIMEK. After its release, the EP debuted on the UK R&B Albums Chart at number twenty-eight. It also appeared on Billboard's component charts, Dance/Electronic Albums and Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums at number eleven and number thirty respectively.

On February 8, 2012, it was announced through Beyoncé's website and a press release issued by Parkwood Entertainment and Columbia Records that "End of Time" would be released as the fifth single from her fourth studio album, 4. Preceding its release, a remix competition for the song began in association with audio sharing site SoundCloud, which enabled public voting on the submission of remixes by participants. The contest was open to entrants in 25 countries from February 8, 2012 to March 9, 2012; it was announced that the remix winner would win a cash prize of US$4,000 and that the remix would be included on her then-unspecified upcoming release, which was later titled 4: The Remix.
