At the time of the album’s release, Jamie shared: “It’s been a while… and a lot has happened in that time. Ups and downs, growing up, figuring stuff out and then forgetting it all many times over.

"Life-changing events and world-changing events. These waves that we have all experienced together and alone," he added. “I wanted to make something fun, joyful and introspective all at once. The best moments on a dance floor are usually that for me.”
