This is What You Came For
It starts with a beat. A steady electronic thump in my chest. Electric waves pulsing through my body with a feeling like forever before breaking into the tips of my fingers and the doors of perception. I gasp in the first chords of the song as they hit like my first breath of air, and when I open my eyes the club embraces me the way you used to every time the beat dropped: hot, sticky, lingering.
Lost in an endless party in a somehow familiar club, past and present remixing with each beat of the DJ’s set, searching for something he can almost remember. A slipstream love story about memory, music, and the things we leave behind. Set in Singapore and written for everyone who’s ever felt like they wasted their lives dancing the night away in clubs.
