Track: Robyn’s ‘Blow My Mind’ gets a chaotic rework from CA7RIEL & Paco Amoroso

Pop doesn’t stand still for long in 2026, but this one feels like a jolt. CA7RIEL & Paco Amoroso have stepped into Robyn’s orbit, reworking ‘Blow My Mind’ into something sharper, stranger and built for movement.

Stream it HERE.

The remix arrives hot on the heels of their album FREE SPIRITS, a record that cemented the duo’s reputation for refusing to sit in one lane for too long. That same unpredictability drives this collaboration. What was already one of the standout moments from Sexistential now feels rewired — basslines pushed harder, edges roughened, the groove stretched until it snaps back into place.

It’s not a polite remix. CA7RIEL & Paco Amoroso don’t decorate the original so much as destabilise it, threading their own chaotic energy through Robyn’s precision. The result lands somewhere between club euphoria and controlled disorder, a version that feels built for sweat rather than introspection.

The accompanying video leans into that energy. Robyn appears alongside the duo, the chemistry immediate and slightly unhinged, the visuals mirroring the track’s sense of release. It’s playful, messy in the right places, and fully aware of its own momentum.

The collaboration also slots neatly into the wider afterlife of Sexistential, which has already been reshaped by a run of genre-hopping remixes from names like Jamie xx, Marlon Hoffstadt and Arca. Each has pulled the record in a different direction. This one might be the most volatile of the lot.

That volatility matches the spirit of the album itself. Released earlier this year, Sexistential marked Robyn’s first full-length in eight years — a return that didn’t play it safe. Co-produced with Klas Åhlund and reconnecting her with Max Martin, the record leaned into sensation and instinct, framing pleasure, vulnerability and connection as something active rather than passive.

Now, with a global tour locked in for 2026 — including arena runs and major festival appearances — Robyn’s world feels wide open again. This remix doesn’t just extend that moment; it scrambles it, pushes it forward, makes it harder to pin down.

Go HERE for tickets to the Australian shows.

For CA7RIEL & Paco Amoroso, it’s another step into a space where genre feels irrelevant. For Robyn, it’s proof that even at full stride, her work is still flexible enough to be broken apart and rebuilt.
