Waiting for you

There was something about your face but there was nothing inside your eyes Now I’m thinking about this place and what it is here that makes you cry And when the light turns the night into day I’ll be waiting for you I’ll be waiting for you To come I know the street and the house where you live  I know your car and your daily moves  I saw the way that you touched you lips How you walk and you talk and you groove And when the light turns the night into day I’ll be waiting for you I’m waiting for you To come I’ve been watching you while you sleep I know the shape of your unmade bed And now I’m thinking I’ve gone to deep but I can’t get you out of my head And when the light turns the night into day I’ll be waiting for you I’m waiting for you To come

about

“Waiting for you” lightly but relentlessly touches on the theme of obsession that the protagonist has for his victim. It slowly reveals how he uses this fanstasy as an imaginary form of mental and visual control.
This ’stalker’ forma mentis quickly reveals itself throughout the lyric as we learn who and what is in the firing line. His obsession for the victim is both familiar and yet hidden. It manifests itself as a constant hidden presence in the story, until the loop in which the protagonist is orbiting, breaks down, reaching the point of no return. Time after time, he returns, secretly observing the one that has been selected as his object of
desire, until the obsession turns into the willful and yet unfathomable implied spooky final conclusion.The sonic landscape of “Waiting For You” enables this concept to find completion and resolution, with Eugene’s avantgarde synth-pop textures wrapping warmly around Danny’s
mesmerising and soulful vocals. This digital EP release on Wall Of Sound also features remix versions by top-notch electronic producers Nude Isko (UK) and PreCog (USA).
In the indie-produced video for “Waiting For You”, the obsessions whispered by Danny De Matos take the shape of a tight visual storytelling sequence, marked by a seductive all monochrome aesthetic (excepting some illustrative wounds of red lipstick), and mixing retro and contemporary filming styles. The action is imbued by a blatant eroticism, suddenly broken by shards of nonsensical irony. This both elegant and disquieting monochrome sexiness is counterbalanced on the EP artwork, designed by American artist Peter Stanick. It is a vicious visual turn-on, executed in his characteristically Pop-Art multicolored manner, with all the usual brilliant shades and shapes that are Stanick’s creative signature.
