Sanctuary (The Remixes)

On 19 September 2011, a remix extended play of Sanctuary was released, featuring 4 remixes from various artists, including remixes from electronic producers Ben Gold, Paul Thomas & Myke Smith, Miss Nine and Ephixa.[5][6] Senthil Chidambaram of Dancing Astronaut generally liked the Paul Thomas & Myke Smith Remix, stating "The progressive melody meshed with Lucy Saunders voice creates a spiritual calming feel throughout the entirety of the track".[6] DJMag.com gave the remix EP a 7.5/10, stating:

Sanctuary seemed to be all about its super-contagious chorus. Ben Gold's remix challenges that by strongly emphasising and amping up its angular lead-line. Ephixa goes for a twitchy, spasmodic bit of dubstep-ery, which is ok, of the type. Miss Nine's charts some straight-up fluffy trance waters with hers, while Paul Thomas & Myke Smith opt for a darker, cooler locale.[5]
