"Shakes" by Luke Hemmings is an ethereal dream-pop track featuring reverberating vocals that evoke a sense of nostalgia. The singer reveals that the song draws inspiration from feelings of loneliness in his late 20s, leading him to explore the works of artists like Damon Albarn and other introspective songwriters. Hemmings shares that the song was written in New York, where he immersed himself in the music of LCD Soundsystem, Cocteau Twins, and The Verve, capturing a mood of melancholy and solitude within a bustling city atmosphere.
