At The Seams (EMMANUELLE REMIX)
At The Seams - ORIGINAL VERSION
COLLABORATOR'S INSPO
“I think what drew me to “At The Seams” was the fact that it had a loose structure, it felt very free and had a catchy hook I wanted to play with. I wanted to keep the romantic feel of the original track so it didn’t need much…especially with those chords, I wanted them to stand out so I tried to simplify the bassline, I synthesised it so it was more moody. And l chopped some of the vocals to bring out a funkier element.”

At The Seams - LYRICS
Turn the lights down low
There’s nothing here that hasn’t been said before
Thought I’d be adored
But now I’m not so reassured
But don’t say you want to dance with me
If we can’t step in time
Another romance finis
I guess I’ll be just fine
You’re slowly picking us apart
At the seams
Come back and finish what you started
And on and on and on…
