This marks the second collaboration between Hartono and MYRNEwho has now worked with the electronic producer on his previous two releases. In a press statement, the singer-songwriter describes the new dynamic as "A lot more familiar."

"It felt like playing on an expanded playground now that we got all the first time jitters out the way.”

A piano-driven love ballad, Hartono drew inspiration from his own experiences. On the track's message, he shares: “It’s a love song for the people who make you feel loved. You really feel the difference when that someone is around, whether in subtle or obvious ways."

Edge of Days is scheduled for release on 3 Sept 2021, and marks the first multi-track release since the singer's debut Mandarin EP in《什么都不做的一天》Do Nothing Day in 2020.
