Sunset
Sunset[1] is a song by The Midnight. It is the first single and second track from their album Endless Summer. The single was released on May 13, 2016. Silk Music released a remix single of Sunset on August 7, 2017, with this release also containing the Michael Cassette Remix, which would later be included on the 2017 remix album The Midnight Remixed.[2][3]
The song was written by band members Tim McEwan and Tyler Lyle and produced by McEwan. The guitar on Sunset was performed by Johannes Jørgensen. It has a running time of five minutes and 26 seconds and is in the key of F major. Sunset is considered to be one of The Midnight's signature songs and is often the last song performed at live shows.
In addition to appearing on The Midnight Remixed, the Michael Cassette Extended Remix of Sunset appears on the Silk Music compilation Silk Music Pres. Progressive House Essentials 06.[4]
During a fan question-and-answer session on Twitter, Lyle said this about the lyrics of Sunset:[5]Now that song started at a cheap motel in Burlington, VT. There were crow bar marks on the door frame. I thought “now this would be the first stop for a couple of kids who faked their deaths and went on the run.”
List of The Midnight merchandise
This is a list of merchandise that has been offered by The Midnight, either through their online store or available to purchase at their live shows. The Midnight began a partnership with Wisconsin-based printing shop Ambient Inks in early 2017 to produce band merchandise. Initial offerings were limited to apparel, but over time other items such as accessories, posters, and physical music became available as well.
When The Midnight began touring in Fall 2018, some merchandise began to be offered exclusively at shows. In most cases, leftover stock will be available for purchase on the online store once a tour concludes. Some tours have additionally had exclusive merchandise for those who purchase VIP tickets, and some VIP items will also be available for purchase online after a tour ends.
From 2017 to mid-2021, the online store was located at the domain merch.ambientinks.com/collections/themidnight and served all customers worldwide. Beginning in 2020 and continuing into mid-2021, separate online stores were established for the US (store-us.themidnightofficial.com) and UK (store-uk.themidnightofficial.com) to improve logistics for customers outside of the US. The UK store is operated by Sandbag while the US store continues to be ran by Ambient Inks. Item availability can vary between the two stores, which both ship worldwide. In general, once a item is removed from the website, it will no longer be made again. If an item is still listed but shows as being "out of stock", more of the item is expected to be made.
