Shyra Sanchez Releases New Operator Remixes Package
Shyra Sanchez Releases New Operator Remixes Package With Dave Audé, Bimbo Jones, Until Dawn, Marc Baigent, and Try Harder
Shyra Sanchez releases new Operator remixes package as her debut single continues to gain support across dance radio, club charts, and international airplay. The original version of Operator has already reached No. 37 on the Billboard Dance Mixshow Airplay Chart, No. 34 on Mediabase, and No. 1 on the DRT Global Top 100 Independent Airplay Chart for two consecutive weeks, while also picking up UK Music Week club chart action and spins on Kiss FM’s Future Dance Anthems. With the record already moving across the US and UK dance music space, the remix package gives Operator a wider club run through new versions from Dave Audé, Bimbo Jones, Until Dawn, Marc Baigent, and Try Harder.

Operator Extends Its Run Beyond The Original Release
For a debut single, Operator has already gathered a strong amount of early support across several dance music channels. Its Billboard Dance Mixshow Airplay position points to US radio traction, while the Mediabase placement and two-week run at No. 1 on the DRT Global Top 100 Independent Airplay Chart show that the record has found movement beyond one isolated chart. The UK response adds another part to that story, with Music Week club chart activity and Kiss FM’s Future Dance Anthems giving the single more visibility on the other side of the Atlantic.
The remix package now extends that original run by giving DJs, radio programmers, and club selectors different versions of Operator to work with. Instead of treating the remix release as a separate add-on, the package keeps Shyra Sanchez’s vocal performance as the thread that connects each version back to the original. That helps the release stay focused on her as the artist behind the record, while still allowing each producer to take the single into a different club direction.
Dave Audé, Bimbo Jones, Until Dawn, Marc Baigent, And Try Harder Rework Operator
Dave Audé brings one of the strongest remix profiles to the package, arriving off the back of remix work for Katy Perry, Beyoncé, Madonna, and Jennifer Lopez. His version of Operator leans into a heavier club direction, with the press release pointing to its chunkier kick drum approach. Bimbo Jones, whose remix credits include Lady Gaga, Rihanna, and Kylie Minogue, takes the single into funkier house territory, giving the package a brighter and more groove-led version while keeping the vocal hook recognizable.
The rest of the package widens the single further without pulling it away from its original identity. Until Dawn takes Operator into a more bass-heavy version, adding extra weight to the release, while Marc Baigent and Try Harder complete the lineup with additional club-focused interpretations. Across the package, the remixes give Operator several routes into DJ sets, club floors, and dance radio, from funky house movement to heavier bass and kick-led versions.
As Shyra Sanchez prepares for her next single, Dance With Me, scheduled to arrive in June 2026, the Operator remixes package keeps her debut single active before the next release begins. With chart movement, radio support, club chart action, and a handpicked remix lineup now behind the record, Operator continues to introduce Shyra Sanchez to a wider dance music audience.
