Lana Del Rey is unquestionably the most desired artist to remix right now. Not only are her smoky drawl and slick beats a fruitful palate for producers to work with, but reworking one of her tracks can give you a Top 10 single and a Grammy (just ask Cedric Gervais). In a clever move, Del Rey commissioned two separate sets of remixes for "West Coast," the lead single from the upcoming Ultraviolence LP, reaching to all corners of the electronic spectrum to find the artists to do it. Here are the best official and off-the-books remixes that will get your baby swingin'.

Veteran producer MK has been moving feet since that remix of Nightcrawler's "Push the Feeling on" all those decades ago. He took a break from his busy schedule to cook up this disco remix of "West Coast."
Bosnian deep-er house bossman Solomun gives us a spooky house remix of the tune with some real Yuma Tent vibes.
Austrian drum and bass duo Camo and Krooked turn things down a notch for their spacious, techy version of "West Coast". This official re-work features synth samples that you might recognize from their genre-busting "All Night," released last year

We had to dig pretty deep into the nether-regions of Soundcloud to find

s remix. It's got some tropico-prog-house vibes and teases you with energy seeping in that crescendos (albeit, lightly) at the end.

...And lastly, the unheard of producer William Carl Jr scored with an official remix of the track, a breaksy jam with a hip-hop vibe to it.
UPDATE (06/11/2014): Hold the presses! Zhu's wicked glitchy chillout remix JUST dropped and it is pretty frisky:
