Chelsea Wolfe – House of Self-Undoing (Boy Harsher Remix)
Earlier this year, Chelsea Wolfe graced us with her seventh studio album, She Reaches Out to She Reaches Out to She, pushing the boundaries of gothic soundscapes and themes. Today, she presents the album’s first remix, “House of Self-Undoing,” reimagined by the darkwave duo Boy Harsher.
Boy Harsher, known for their quintessential shadowy synth-pop, transforms this standout track into a sultry, synth-driven dream. The remix adds a romantic blend of dream pop and subtle trip-hop, creating an ethereal atmosphere that could coax even the shyest wallflowers into dancing under a starry disco ball.
The original “House of Self-Undoing” delves into intense emotions and inner turmoil, chronicling a profound connection to someone who consistently departs, leaving heartache in their wake. Boy Harsher’s remix retains the emotional depth but reshapes Wolfe’s atmospheric sound into a club-ready, gothic synth-pop anthem.
“I love how Boy Harsher totally transformed this song into something new,” says Wolfe. “It’s really fun to hear my voice in this context — I so appreciate Jae and Gus bringing their energy to the House of Self-Undoing.”
Augustus Muller of Boy Harsher adds, “I love remixes because they have a mind of their own. Chelsea’s voice is so beautiful and vulnerable on this track, and I was just trying to make room for it. I was getting a bit of an R&B vibe and tried to lean into that.”
Experience this hauntingly beautiful remix and get lost in the darkwave enchantment.
