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 the song's 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 public was able to vote for entries and SoundCloud, and the top 50 ranked remixes were reviewed by the announced panel of judges; the originality, creativity and musicality of these 50 remixes were taken into consideration when choosing the winner. ==Release==
