It's about when the city finally goes to sleep, and the lights dim down. It's raining. It's pouring down on the little fishing boats in Stanley. It's about that subtle noise the thin, tin roofs in Kennedy Town are making, when the monsoon comes.
Hong Kong is not just busy-busy-no-relaxey. Admittedly, it's hectic. However, it knows when to calm down, and uses that limited time-frame very efficiently.

This used to be my Saturday night soundtrack, and that song is currently one of my favourite songs ever. Currently I replaced Twentythree with pic related, pretty similar mood, but more guitars (and no radio transmissions and field recordings ;_;)
