A 2012 dance anthem just collided with a fictional K-pop banger, and now it’s playing in real-life clubs.
New York-based DJ and TikTok creator Xenith went viral after dropping a mashup of “Clarity” by Zedd and “Golden” by HUNTR/X, the fictional girl group from “KPop Demon Hunters.”
What started as a home-produced remix on TikTok quickly took off, drawing millions of views and sparking a wave of reaction online.

But instead of keeping it digital, Xenith made sure to bring this masterpiece where it belongs: the clubs, and the result is electric. The seamless blend of nostalgic millennial EDM and Gen-Z inspired pop made for a crossover that had partygoers vibing hard, even those who had never heard of HUNTR/X before.
