Was this why FF was his last Britney gig? 

I don't think that is the reason, and he didn't confirm it.

[BritneyGuy]

@ToxicMadness yeah, I get your point.
Britney's team was pleased with his work on the "The Circus Tour". Therefore they wanted him to continue with her upcoming tour. He said that Britney wanted to change and do as many remixes to freshen it up for her cause she got bored. So understandable

The South American audience was insane! Just from viewing the photos.

You're right!
No, he didn't release them. The only ones were "MATM" and "Slave" as far as I remember. Have you went to one of these tours?

He released:

Circus tour:

Slave, MATM and the opera intro to Circus. He did release an unreleased Circus remix which was used for the reprise.

Femme Fatale tour:

Gimme More and Toxic. He also shared the pre-intro countdown which was played before the intro interlude.

He also shared the VMA mix, Big Fat Bass promo tour version and an unreleased Work B.tch remix.

 

He did promise to release ALL of them but he apparently was told to not release them by Britney's team.

Well that's disappointing to hear... I don't like when people glamorize *****, and that's pretty unprofessional of him too. I honestly thought those "distorted voices" were a stylistic choice to go with the Egyptian vibes...

This was always a standout i remember seeing from her live remixes 

[RebellionSparkles]

I love this podcast.

That version of Gimme More is epic, so I guess being stoned worked out well, biiish

absolute fave!!!

[Haha-Hehe-Haha-Ho]

Peace and love but Simon (although he’s very experienced) is a bit of a boomer and his arrangements reflect that imo.
