Curious (Marian Hill remix)

Hayley Kiyoko

A minimalist, bass-heavy reimagining of the queer pop anthem. Marian Hill strips the original to its bones, replacing synth-wash with sharp vocal chops and deep sub-bass.

This remix transforms Hayley Kiyoko's shimmering pop anthem into a masterclass of restraint and rhythmic tension. While the original 'Curious' is a high-energy synth-pop track designed for the dancefloor, the Marian Hill version pulls the listener into a much more intimate, nocturnal space. It replaces the driving percussion with a signature blend of finger snaps, heavy sub-bass, and silence. The result is a track that feels both more vulnerable and more confident, emphasizing the interrogation at the heart of the lyrics.

Moments Worth Listening For
The way the chorus melody is sliced into rhythmic stabs that mimic a skipping record.
The sudden drop into near-silence where only a heavy, rounded bass synth remains.
Hayley's breathy 'I'm just curious' line being pitched down and echoed into the background.
