28), the Madeon edit brings airy spaciousness to the original, before the French producer takes the song to the bubblegum stratosphere with a shimmering, soaring and early 2010s-style build/release that’s signature Madeon and total bliss.

Listen to the remix below.

In a post announcing the project, the pair shared a screenshot of a text exchange, with Madeon saying that “I took some sounds from my early FL projects to honor the era you’re talking about,” with Ninajirachi’s lyrics referencing downloading the DAW FL Studio.

Madeon continued that he also “added a verse with my own memories” and noted that this is his first official remix since 2012, a sentiment to which Ninajirachi responded “Omg im freaking out this is so amazing.” The post also includes vintage photos of each artist as musically inclined children.

Ninajirachi also recently worked with Madeon’s friend and collaborator Porter Robinson on the July single “WannaCry.” Meanwhile, Madeon released his first studio album in seven years , Victory , in late June.

Of the project he told Billboard , “There was something a little rebellious about it, and that was appealing.

I often say the number one sin of an artist is to be boring and to give people what they think they want, and I think you can recede into the background of people’s consciousness if you just pander.

Because of the length of my career, I felt like I had earned the right to be risky, and I wanted to feel courageous, even if it meant risking everything going down in flames.

That was appealing to me.”
