Track Premiere: Harlow’s Monkeys – “Gravity”

The San Francisco band describes the track as “a fingerpicking dance song that evolves into a rock band’s approximation of the EDM drop. It is a song about the feeling of being drawn to someone and being caught in their magnetism, and anxieties surrounding that.

The seed of the song was a quaint folk number, but a friend suggested making the chorus bigger and more like a dubstep drop as a joke.
