55.5 (The Knocks VIP Mix) is the fourth extended play produced by New York City based electronic music duo the Knocks, which was released on 8 July 2016.[4] The extended play is set as a remixed spin-off to the duo's debut album 55, containing remixes of five songs from the album.

Around the time the duo embarked on their American tour, they began to record the remixed versions of the songs and began teasing the extended play.

The EP was initially planned to be released on 29 April 2016, but was ultimately pushed back to 8 July 2016. In its place on that date, the duo released the EP's lead single, a remixed of their track "Classic" featuring vocals from alt-pop duo POWERS.

The second single from the EP, which was a remix of the song "Love Me Like That" featuring vocals from Carly Rae Jepsen, was released 26 May 2016. This was during the duo's tour with Justin Bieber and Ellie Goulding.

The third single, a remix of "Tied To You" featuring vocals from pop songwriter Justin Tranter, was released on 6 June 2016.

Whilst the duo were embarking on another American tour serving as guest performers for The 1975, the fourth single, a remix of "Best for Last" featuring vocals from American electronic band Walk the Moon, was released on 24 June 2016.

On 7 July 2016, the Knocks announced the release date of 8 July 2016, and revealed that the EP was to include the official release of their last remix from the EP of the song "Time".
