I was wondering, its seems there is no official policy regarding remix albums for releases, e.g. Alicia Keys Remixed & Unplugged in A Minor from her main release Songs in A Minor,
Release “Remixed & Unplugged in A minor” by Alicia Keys - MusicBrainz
i wanted to separate this as a separate release, it is causing some headaches for my catalogue as it gets automatically grouped into the main release as it is under the same release group. Any suggestions? I see the guidelines suggested leaning towards it being a separate release group.
Other situations
There are a number of situations where there is currently no consensus about whether releases should be grouped together or not. This includes the same album sung in different languages, re-recorded albums and remixed albums. Be aware that attempting to group these releases can be quite controversial. If in doubt, these releases should probably be in separate release groups.

Wow, incredible your link to doc page and highlight sentences!
By the way, it clearly says:
If in doubt, these releases should probably be in separate release groups.
Anfd, clearly, your remix album example would be much much much more useful in its own release group, indeed. 
They are all different recordings.
There are several topics in this forum about this, already.

Think these should be separate.

welcome to the community, @blackzwe!~
I agree, the Remixed & Unplugged release should be in a seperate release group, and additionally, you can add a remix relationship between the two release groups, for example, this Release group “I Remember (John Summit remix)” by deadmau5 & Kaskade - MusicBrainz
