American electropop duo Majestic Phoenix and darkwave artist CZARINA have released “Angels + Demons (Arcana Remix),” a collaborative reworking of Majestic Phoenix’s original track. The digital release went out on Bandcamp on 10 November 2026, alongside a new music video.

CZARINA contributes new vocals, lyrics and instrumentation to Majestic Phoenix’s original composition. The two-track release pairs the vocal version with an instrumental mix, mixed and mastered in analog by Von Hertzog at The Social Club. “Angels + Demons” first appeared as a Majestic Phoenix original in August 2026, following an earlier version featuring Emy Smith in July.

The accompanying video was produced and directed by The Kitsunés, the creative partnership of CZARINA and her husband, visual artist Carlos Kitsuné. Filmed in Malpica de Bergantiños, on Galicia’s Costa da Morte, it follows a pilgrim on the Camino de Santiago who encounters the Devil, drawing visual reference from Ingmar Bergman’s 1957 film “The Seventh Seal” and Friedrich Moritz August Retzsch’s 1831 painting “Die Schachspieler” (“The Devil’s Checkmate” in English).

“Angels + Demons (Arcana Remix)” is available as a digital release on Bandcamp.
