Background and release
Speaking about the song's history, Wilkinson said the following:[1]
"I wrote three different versions of the song,” he says. “I took everything out rebuilt it. Like fitting a house, I guess. Stripped it all out, started again and wrote a whole new tune. Three times. It started to make me realise the elements I actually liked. When you’re too deep into a track you don’t realise which components are really working. So stripping it back and adding them back in gradually made me realise the key points that I like. I played with the structure and went in deeper for the more chilled, liquid roller vibe that it is today."
The song was originally slated for release on 3 May 2015,[2] but got later pushed back to 15 May.[3]
