Peekaboo Returns to Nightmode with Mind Twisting Track “When I’m Gone”

Peekaboo goes beyond the capabilities of his freeform sound to bring a soft spotlight to his intrusive thoughts.

Matthew Lucas, better known as Peekaboo has made his royal return to Nightmode after his label debut “Bumpy Road”. The popular track showcased Peekaboo’s natural talent in creating hypnotic, harrowing, chilling grooves that flow the breath deep into the darkest depths of wonky wop dubstep land.

On his follow-up offering to Nightmode, Peekaboo eschews the outer limits of his sound by giving his fans a left-field curveball with a bass restrained called “When I’m Gone”, featuring singer-songwriter and emerging vocalist, Xaelo. The somber piano, rainfall sounds, and lilting melody lines between the lyric “I wonder if you miss me. If you really went away. It’s really hard to let you go. Cause I can’t see you again” slow the pace down to bring to life the disheartening narrative of someone being ghosted.

Peekaboo shared that “When I’m Gone” is a song for the most important person in your life; realizing what the world would be like without them, and never taking anyone for granted.” Each raindrop sound leads the heart into the center of awareness allowing each intrusive thought to take the spotlight without judgment, only with love.

The Detroit-based producer has inspired a whole new wave of bass music throughout the years with his fresh, distinctive, and unique productions in fusing a deep hip-hop beat with diabolical bass-end grooves and mind-altering sound designs. It is no surprise here that Peekaboo is quickly rising to fame, along with the gained support from the likes of Skrillex, Zeds Dead, Rezz, RL Grime, and more.

Peekaboo is currently headlining shows across North America with his next show coming up in Denver. Peekaboo with also be performing at the Deadbeats showcase at the WAMU Theatre, Moonrise Festival, and Ever After Festival.
