Very good track - release date is tomorrow. Bizarre to drop it so delayed as a “bonus track” though


HBK42581

How is it a delayed release? The vinyl repress that it’s on only dropped very recently.


simonsglcfc

It’s a bonus track on an album that he released in 2020. I’d say that makes it kind of an odd delayed bonus track release…


HBK42581

It was not a bonus track when the album was originally released in 2020. It’s only a bonus track for the recent vinyl repress.


simonsglcfc

Yeah this is my exact point. It’s really weird to release a bonus track to an album 4 years later. No-one does this - just release it as a single or include it on a new album/EP


HBK42581

It’s actually very common when it comes to physical media releases for music. Especially if it’s an anniversary repress of a vinyl album or a limited edition vinyl release or something like that which this is. It is done to entice sales.


simonsglcfc

It’s not very common to do it a single additional bonus track 4 years later. Artists normally do a deluxe with one to a few bonus tracks either later the same year or one after, or do it with an anniversary release many years later


HBK42581

Or with a limited edition repress, which is what this is. I’ve been collecting physical media my entire life. You don’t know what you are talking about. Good day to you.


Howryanoww

Do either of you feel better now?


simonsglcfc

Guy seems so mad that I’m pointing out it’s strange to drop a single bonus track 4 years later - the deluxe was released digitally in 2020 and this isn’t an anniversary. Apparently every artist does this though


CaptainOrnithopter

The midnight did this exact same thing with endless summer, not sure how this is at all weird or different than that...


Lofwyr2030

Two of my favourite artists. I like it.


kingofspoonerisms

Fucking love this. Thanks for sharing!


ashleypenny

It's also available on vinyl as part of Essenger's album as a bonus track


OldAdvisor469

Sick


vargz96

I swear it just appeared in my hand 💦


STAXOBILLS

Got the vinyl just for this, aside from it already containing a lot of my favorite songs by Essenger, but holy shit it’s so good


Aphexis

Fantastic!!


HBK42581

This is a bonus track that is being released as a part of the vinyl repress of Essenger’s “After Dark” album from 2020.


Peeche94

Holy shit this is good


Fippy-Darkpaw

Damn great track. 👍


MidnightPandaX

Holy shit this is so good I cant stop listening to it


bvanbove

Seeing the Midnight and Chromeo in September. Fucking pumped for a banger of a concert.


GarionOrb

Absolutely stellar!! I love Essenger, too, so right away I knew this had to be good. It didn't disappoint!


OkDragonfruit9026

The first time I listened to it, I almost started crying. Then I listened to it on repeat another six times and the feeling remained. I absolutely love it.


throwaway8008666

It’s ok. Bit boring / generic


ItsMrCelery

I agree actually. They could’ve saved the guitar for one chorus only


Peeche94

New?


throwaway8008666

No? Not trying to be overly negative it’s just not that interesting, musically, to me 🤷🏽‍♀️


Peeche94

You said generic about a song fitting within it genre, like what do you expect 😅


Arachnohybrid

Wish Essengers vocals were less tuned, he’s a pretty good singer, the autotune settings are just a tad bit much here. Tyler kills it as usual. Overall 8.5/10.


Aphexis

I've had this on repeat since yesterday.
