DATA FOR WEEK OF 02 .2 0 .2 021How did “Heat Waves” come
together?
DAVE BAYLEY Normally, writing
a song takes a good day to get
into shape, but this happened in
an hour late at night. The guitar
came first. I was like, “I’m going
to write this long chord pattern.”
After 10 minutes of looking into
space, I hit those eight chords.
As soon as I had [that], I started
singing. Literally the first thing
that came out was the hook. It
never happens like that.“Heat Waves” is Glass
Animals’ first Hot 100 entry.
How does it feel?
I lost someone really important
to me, and around their birthday
in June — hence the lyric “Late
nights in the middle of June” — I
always start to feel a bit shit. It’s
always strange releasing a piece
of personal music. Knowing it
was written in that moment, it’s
like my little secret is out. Some-
times it freaks me out thinking
about it. It’s bizarre but amazing.You put the winner of a “Heat
Waves” remix competition on
Dreamland (+ Bonus Levels).
How did you get that idea?
When we lost touring, we had
to find ways to interact with
people. There’s no rulebook now.
I thought of putting the sounds
[we] use to make songs on a
website for people, and loads of
stuff came back. I thought the
guy who won was some 45-year-
old jazz wizard; he’s a 15-year-old
from England. —GAB GINSBERG69
