Reviews
Slime have a history of putting together really colourful, original underground releases, and this latest project from Aaron Static embodies everything they are about. We see him team up with the truly stunning vocal textures of Akacia, who really brings this one to life. The composition itself is a slower, more emotive piece of soundscaping, with twisted bass tones writhing left right and centre beneath blissful pad work and spacey vocal inputs from Akacia. This is definitely one to finish the night on for any DJ. On remix duty, Blackboxx reworks the structure into a 4x4 garage rhythm, adding a whole new depth to an incredible idea.

Lyrics
Hold on, not long now. Feet almost back on the ground. Hold on, wait for the sign. Not long now, running the red lights I never thought I could need someone like I need you, But I'll know when I see it. I still leave the doors unlocked, I let the candles burn out. Guess I'm still waiting for something. Leave my messages on read, Chase the feeling 'round my head. But I'll know when I see it. But I'll know when I. But I'll know when I see it. Hold on, not long now. Conversation keeps that calm down. My words feel just like regret. Still don't know what we should have said. But I'll know when I see it. I still leave the doors unlocked, I let the candles burn out. Guess I'm still waiting for something. Leave my messages on read, Chase the feeling 'round my head. But I'll know when I see it. I still leave the doors unlocked, I let the candles burn out. Guess I'm still waiting for something. Leave my water running cold. Blind faith hurts, truth be told. But I'll know when I see it.
