A native of Reading, England, Lewis first became interested in music in his teens and played in several bands before he started experimenting with remixing tracks. Influenced by the introspective pop of Bon Iver and James Blake, as well as the club-ready hip-hop of artists like Common, Timbaland, and the Neptunes, Lewis began posting his own evocative, moody tracks online. He quickly built a loyal following, and eventually nabbed a residency DJ'ing at London's Chibuku Club.
In 2014, his remix of Jessie Ware's song "You & I (Forever)" caught the attention of Ware's label, PMR Records, who then signed him. A year later, he released his debut EP, Shivers. In 2016, Lewis delivered his sophomore EP, Yours, which included the track "Holding Back," featuring Gallant. Lewis' 2017 output consisted of the Toulouse-aided single "Times We Had" and the solo track "Smart Aleck Kill." He returned in January 2018 with "Aura," a bright yet low-key track featuring vocalist J Warner. The song appeared on the disco-influenced Dusk, which kicked off a trilogy of club-centric EPs slated to appear under the combined full-length album title of Dusk, Dark, Dawn. Meanwhile, he continued releasing singles including 2019's "Blue" and the Clairo collaboration "Throwaway." ~ Matt Collar

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Never felt a vibe like this
Might be worth the risk
To make up for the time I missed
Let me make up for the time I missed
Been around the world, I'll take you on my next trip
When I pull up, I'mma slide this
AP your wrist, girl, ain't no better time than this
G5, it ain't no flyer than this
Crocodile Birkin, I did it for Steve Irwin
Whatever it takes to get you back, girl, I'll put the work in, just
Let me know where you wanna go
Make believe or reality
Come slide on me show it's real if you feeling me
I can fill up the energy
In the meantime, between time
In your arms, wish we could freeze time, I need mine
But you're the only one in here I wanna try
Been around the world, I did
Never felt a vibe like this (never felt a vibe like this)
Might be worth the risk
To make up for the time I missed (ooh yeah, ooh yeah)
Been around the world, I did
And I never felt a vibe like this (never felt a vibe like this, oh no)
And it might be worth the risk
To make up for the time I missed
Tell me that that pussy's still mine, is it all me
And you'll never give it up to one of my colleagues
We should go to Bali, after that The Maldives
You said if it's real then, I'll give you these house keys
Yeah, and make this house where the home is
I know you like Diamonds and Roses
Tell me what your goal is
I'mma make sure you never know what alone is
Let me know where you wanna go
Make believe or reality
Come slide on me, show it's real if you feeling me
I can fill up the energy
In the meantime, between time
In your arms wish we could freeze time, I need mine
But you're the only one in here I wanna try
Been around the world, I did (I did)
Never felt a vibe like this (vibe like this, oh yeah)
Might be worth the risk
To make up for the time I missed (make up for the time I missed, ooh, oh)
Been around the world, I did (I did)
And I never felt a vibe like this
And it might be worth the risk
To make up for the time I missed
