“lights down” follows previous singles “always believed” and “space cadet” from the yet-to-be-named work. The track is accompanied by a video created with fans, capturing their reactions to hearing the song for the first time.
Speaking about the process behind making the song, sim0ne explains: “While making ‘lights down’ I really enjoyed playing with the juxtaposition between understated vocals with colloquial lyrics and hard, almost abrasive, synthetic sounds. I wanted the track to feel like a moment of intimacy with someone in the middle of a pulsing crowd, on a dance floor at peak time. While still nodding to UK rave and hardcore the track sonically references 2000s juggernauts Zombie Nation while keeping both feet firmly in underground dance culture.”
