  • Alesso wrote this for the video game, Payday. He explained to Cuepoint: "They asked me if I wanted to do this collaboration, and I'm a big video gamer myself, so that was a dream to do something like that. When I started making the track, I was playing the game and got a bunch of ideas. I wanted to create something for the dancefloor and the actual game, so that's how that track came about."
