Billie Eilish’s hauntingly beautiful track “CHIHIRO,” from her latest album Hit Me Hard and Soft, has been reimagined by the renowned South African DJ and producer, Black Coffee. The result is a stunning remix that adds a new layer of depth and emotion to the already captivating song.
While Eilish’s original version of “CHIHIRO” possesses an eerie intimacy, Black Coffee’s remix expands its sonic landscape, creating a vast and cinematic atmosphere. His signature Afro-house grooves intertwine seamlessly with Eilish’s delicate vocals, giving them a haunting new undercurrent.
This remix is a testament to Black Coffee’s skill as a producer. He masterfully respects the essence of the original track while crafting something entirely unique and resonant with his own distinct style. Sparse yet purposeful piano keys drift through the mix, adding a ghostly quality, while each element is carefully placed to complement Eilish’s evocative lyrics and enhance their sense of longing.
The Black Coffee remix of “CHIHIRO” is currently available for streaming exclusively on YouTube and SoundCloud. A music video has also been released, which you can view below.
