THE LAST TIME

When was the last time you felt happy?
When was the last time that you cried?
When was the last time you felt free?
Without sorrows on your mind?

When did you last look at the sky?
Feel a warm rain on your skin?
See through fog before your eyes?
Had the darkness draw apart?

When did you not wish it was over?
And thanked God to be alive?

When was the last time not pretending?
Not shattering into million pieces?
Did not hear the tainted whispers?
Felt the shadows grip your heart?

When was the last time?

Xynven - Infinite Heat (Space Version) [80s Style]

Open up 
Tear it out 
You Iove it, right?

Savor it
Honey
Every bite

Don’t care if it’s dangerous 
No one else could have the touch 
You supply
No one understands the rush
I could never give it up 
I would die

Wake me up
Make me
Come alive

I don’t see a chance for us
But I've got big plans for us
You’ll do what I say anyway

Don’t look 
It’s all too much

No one else could have the touch 
Don’t care if it’s dangerous 
No one understands the rush
I could never give it up 

Wake me up
Stay with me
Another night

Wake me up
Make me
Come alive

No one else could have the touch 
Don’t care if it’s dangerous
No one understands the rush
I could never give it up
You’ll do all I want anyway

The Touch

With Where Want & Need Collide (After Hours Slow Burn), Archer 23 strips everything back to its most intimate elements, creating a version that feels less like a remix and more like a confession whispered after midnight. This iteration leans fully into restraint, allowing tension and atmosphere to do the emotional heavy lifting.

The “After Hours” treatment deepens the track’s sensuality through patience and space. The pacing is unhurried, each beat arriving with deliberate calm, as if the song itself is aware that desire grows stronger when it’s not rushed. Subtle textures and softened edges give the arrangement a dimly lit quality, reinforcing the sense of closeness and quiet vulnerability.

What stands out most is how the Slow Burn reframes the song’s emotional core. The collision between want and need feels heavier here, more inevitable. Archer 23 doesn’t dramatize the moment—he lets it linger. The result is a track that feels mature and lived-in, capturing desire not as impulse but as something considered, earned, and quietly overwhelming.

Where Want & Need Collide (After Hours Slow Burn) is an immersive late-night listen, designed for solitude, reflection, and moments when emotions surface without asking permission. It reinforces Archer 23’s strength in crafting music that thrives in the margins—where tension breathes, silence speaks, and meaning unfolds slowly.

This is the soundtrack of a journey to discover a new place to live in the universe, from leaving earth to the landing on a new planet and the reception of a strange signal.
