Appropriately titled debut single ‘The Moment’ captured the imaginations of dance floors around the world. What just happened? Who’s this record by?
After weeks of support from the likes of Swedish House Mafia, Tiesto, David Guetta, Chemical Brothers and Calvin Harris, label boss Steve Angello revealed that this track was in fact the first instalment from Tim Mason, a new artist he’d signed to his record label, Size Records.
“I love how something that is invisible can connect so many people whether they’re in the same place or a million miles away. I live for those moments on the dance floor when everyone and everything is electric. I knew I had to make music,” says Tim, and his passion is brought to life in his productions and performances.
Second single ‘Anima’ caused further dancefloor, online and media hype, once again gaining heavy support from the aforementioned world’s finest electronic artists, amongst many others. His quality and vibe from inside the studio translated perfectly to the stage, and in 2012 Tim played across North America, Europe and Asia, including a 74 date run, his Roll Call tour. Shows of note included Creamfields, Ministry Of Sound, EDC New York, SW4, EDC Las Vegas and San Diego Sports Arena.
February 11th saw the eagerly awaited release of his latest single on Size, called ‘Swoon’. It’s seen widespread support from the usual suspects, with Tiesto premiering it late 2012 and the likes of Erick Morillo, Armin van Buuren, Thomas Gold, Arty, R3hab, and Eddie Halliwell hammering it in the clubs as well. The melodies lending it beautifully to radio support with BBC Radio One’s Danny Howard and Pete Tong firmly showing regular support, the latter showcasing it on his Essential Selection show for many consecutive weeks.
Roars, screams and heart-shaped signals have infected audiences at festivals, clubs and arenas as Tim’s productions ring out his trademark beats and rolling riffs. His remix repertoire includes Zedd’s ~Stars come Out” have been versions of Moby “After”, David Guetta “Where Dem Girls At”, Lucid “I Can’t Help Myself”, Nadia Ali/Alex Kenji/Starkillers “Pressure”, Timbaland “Pass At Me”, and forthcoming Red Hot Chili Peppers' “Otherside”, Kaskade & Swanky Tunes “No One Knows Who We Are and Steve Aoki & Angger Dimas “Singularity”.
And he has also proven to be the perfect choice for remixing his own tracks, these coming in the form of the OMG edits - an acronym of Original Music Garnished – full frontal reworks of his own productions. They have been a huge part of his repertoire and were given away for free to show his appreciation to fans of his music. The next OMG edit is coming very swoon.
2013 has continued this relentless strive forward, intense studio time balanced with further dates in Europe and North America alongside a double header of UK shows including a debut at the world famous Cream in Liverpool and Digital in Newcastle. The summer promises much more as well, with high profile sets at festivals, further continental exploration and the return to dance music’s original Mecca; Ibiza. They represent just the tip of the iceberg for Tim, 12 months primed to be his most fruitful and promising to date.
Eternity
Tim Mason Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Let the tide roll in
The world evolves around me
But I don′t spin
'Cause we live in the fantasy
It′s our destiny
Longing for eternity
Ohh I was born to live forever
Ohh I was born to live forever
Ohh I was born to be alive
All I got is memories
Let the tide roll in
The world evolves around me
But I don't spin
'Cause we live in the fantasy
It′s our destiny
Longing for eternity
Ohh I was born to live forever
Ohh I was born to be alive
Ohh I was born to live forever
Ohh I was born to be alive
The lyrics "All I got is memories, Let the tide roll in, The world evolves around me, But I don't spin," suggest that the singer is feeling detached from the world and its constant activity. They seem to be observing it all from a distance, perhaps feeling stagnant in their own life. However, the phrase "Let the tide roll in" could also be interpreted as a relinquishing of control or a surrender to the natural flow of life.
The following lines "’Cause we live in the fantasy, It's our destiny, Longing for eternity," imply that the singer recognizes the role of imagination in shaping their reality. The idea of living in a "fantasy" could be seen as a positive or negative depending on the context, but it seems that the singer finds comfort in the idea that they are not alone in experiencing this disconnection. They also express a desire for something eternal, something that transcends the impermanence of life.
The chorus, "Ohh I was born to live forever, Ohh I was born to be alive," reinforces these themes of longing for eternity and feeling disconnected from the world. It could be interpreted as a statement of purpose or a reminder to the self that life is meant to be lived fully.
Overall, "Eternity" is a song that explores themes of detachment, fantasy, and the human desire for permanence. The lyrics convey a sense of yearning and introspection, while the upbeat tempo of the song seems to offer a sense of hope or optimism.
