Then the 808s didn’t make it, but maybe that’s for the best. So then, I took the guitar that we had used, where it’s like this super lazy, bluesy hammer on, like type style and just made it the outro. So that outro, the “we’re in that sweet spot,” that part, was actually the post originally. Which did not really fit my vibe, but it was cool, and I really wanted to keep it somehow, but we never did. Then the second thing was the post originally went half time with like 808s and went super ratchet. At first, I was kind of against it, then I was like, “wait, you’re totally right.” So, there was that. Then, my buddy, who I produced it with, was like, “yo, why don’t we keep it really clean, like some Roy Orbison type song.” And I was like, “that is a weird reference, let’s try it.” And it wound up working. The instrument break, that guitar originally was distorted, and it was kind of like metally almost. We chatted about his career, life, and the release of his new single ‘Sexual Vibe. Then, my buddy and I just went back and forth the whole summer finishing the production, just sending the tracks back and forth. Stephen Puths FIRST Live Performance Of Sexual Vibe Singer, songwriter, and musician Stephen Puth came by the Hollywire studio to talk with our host Ashley Brinkman. And then spring of like, what, a year and a half later, or something like that, was when we got lyrics, and the melody structured, and the basic beat produced out. That night we just spent like three hours, and it was like a twenty minute voice memo. I think it was fall of one year, and then the following spring of next year I looked at. I took it to my other friends months later, almost like a year later, and I was like, “Hey, I have this random idea.” And I built it out on the computer, produced it a little bit, and then they helped me finish it. Just that little kind of melody and just the line, “we’re on that sexual vibe.” That’s really it. Maybe that’s really cool or we just didn’t think hard enough, but, I liked it. We’re just voice memoing everything and the whole time you just hear us going back like, “it’s gotta be a sexual vibe!” And now that’s the title, so, I don’t know. And the whole time we’re sitting there with this riff and a couple melody ideas. So, I was coming from the night club, and my buddy and I just went to a studio and we were just messing around on a guitar. Because I mean like, you know, when you go to nightclub, everyone is dressed to the nines, and you’re just sitting there, and you’re just like, “everyone’s really attractive, what am I doing here.” It was just kind of fuel to the fire. It was actually kind of like one of the coolest things, because I guess that night kind of inspired everything. But, I went because it was a friend’s birthday and I felt obligated.

It was super weird, because I’m not really a night club guy, at all.
