Background
"We're so honoured to have had our new single 'Under Your Skin' chosen as the official theme song of the X Games this year and we are thrilled to be asked to perform it live on TV in front of millions of viewers this Saturday!" said Seeb. "This event showcases some of the best athletes in the world and it is so inspiring for us to have even a small part in that incredible celebration. On 11 March we hope to add to that energy and give everyone, not only in the area but also at home, a show they will not soon forget!"
Talking about how their collaboration with R. City came about in an email interview by 'CelebMix', Seeb said "We came in touch with R City through their label, and the first idea was only to do a remix, but it turned out so well it became a collaboration instead."
Usage in media
"Under Your Skin" was selected as the official theme song for the X Games Norway 2017 in Oslo, which was televised and broadcast live in over 110 countries by ESPN. When asked about their reaction in the interview aforementioned, Seeb said "We were so happy, X Games is huge, and this was a great way for us to show the world our new single."
Critical reception
Music News Desk from 'BroadWayWorld' said: "The upbeat vocals, soft synth melodies, and thumping bass-line come together to make a track which is perfect for festival season." 'bigFM' wrote: "With 'Under Your Skin', the trio remains true to its special EDM style but the song makes even more of a good mood due to the vocal performance of the R'n'B duo R. City." They concluded that "'Under Your Skin' sounds fresh and makes us want the summer even more."
