Background

The track was first unveiled during Galantis' performance in San Jose, as part of their California College tour.[3]

"In lots of ways 'Pillow Fight' brings back the original Galantis heart and roots, and reminds us why we started this project," Galantis said in a press release. "Launch yourself in every wave, live and breathe the full-throttle mentality, we'll go to sleep tomorrow."[4]
