## Background and release

The composition was premiered at Tomorrowland 2020 during an exclusive VER:WEST one hour set. The title is a reference to his previous 2007 composition, "Ten Seconds Before Sunrise".

I got this opportunity from Tomorrowland to express a different side of me, which I've never done before. I know they are going to put amazing visuals around it and make it look really different and cool. Expect the unexpected, it's going to look amazing!"
