Feeling of Falling — Cheat Codes

Feeling of Falling represents a fascinating intersection where high-gloss EDM production meets the raw, internalised anxiety of modern pop. While Cheat Codes are often associated with sun-drenched, carefree festival anthems, this collaboration with Kim Petras leans into a darker, more nocturnal aesthetic.

The sound is defined by sharp, digital clarity and a propulsive house beat that feels both inviting and slightly relentless, mirroring the lyrical theme of losing one's footing in a relationship or a mental state.

Moments Worth Listening For

The way Kim Petras hits the high note on 'falling' as the bass weight doubles

The rhythmic interplay between the syncopated synth stabs and the steady four-on-the-floor kick
