Monoriff – a homegrown band based in Kuala Lumpur – was founded by Niralji Ravishanker and Rakesh Joshua Daniel, a bunch of college truants who wanted to do something more in life. What was initially a five-member alternative rock outfit became infused with various other genre influences over the years, and now it currently exists as two-man team.
As we mention before on our previous post, following the duo’s release of their first single “Killing Your Own”, they intended to do a collaboration before the release of their next single, “Take Me Down”. But this time around the duo’s have just releases the songs in a form of music video. So long story short, the music video visualizes about a broken relationship, contemplation and random shots of band mates walking around the city (maybe if you watch the video you’ll probably get the bigger picture out of it).
The song was supposed to be a simple, easy and a straightforward piece, which is what it is. Unfortunately the collaboration didn’t work out and they put it aside while working on other songs. The inception of the song came out of the need for a collaboration. It was written and arranged in a day but its development into the finished result today took a few months
