““Back in 2010, when I drifted from drum and bass towards more mainstream EDM such as Avicii, this song dropped on my radar. The lyrics goes: "A silent heart ticking under the ground. Taking the weight from which has yet to be found. If you can hear me now why don't you recall. I was the one who loved you after all"

Unrequited love has been quite a fascination because I read John Keats as a middle schooler and fell in love with the pain of not being loved. Of course, it only got stronger after reading "Love in the time of Cholera". This song is beautiful in just 4 lines. I was going through a tough time - I wanted to move to a country where I could live a life of dignity as a gay man. So when the chances looked bleak, I kind of felt depressed in a way tantamount to a heartbreak.

This was very early Skrillex and I guess Ellie Goulding dated him at that time. Right?””
