“I normally don’t do remixes but I could not resist messing with this accapella even tho the original production on this song is undefeatable,” Grimes said. “I went back to cyber twee for this and even had @angelfir_e sit behind me and stop me every time I tried to overthink the production so… it’s very grimesy.”

“I know I changed the hook but I was so shook by the lyric ‘bring no light of a dying star’ that was casually in there. Felt like it needed a moment,” she wrote on Instagram.

“rip the old grimes she wud have loved dis,” she added.

The EP features three new remixes of the album’s title track — by Flava D, 2Spade and Mount XLR — as well as the original versions of the title track and “Supernova.”
