It's been close to a year since PC Music's Hannah Diamond released her video and single for "Hi." Now, the artist returns with "Fade Away," the first single from Diamond's upcoming EP scheduled to be released later this year. It is a glittery return to form for Diamond, with a rhythm and melody that sounds pulled (like always) from the brightest moments of 90s euro-pop and house.

Diamond describes the track as an emotional journey focusing on the moments when someone's feelings for you have changed. "The inspiration for the track comes from things I wrote years ago in my old diary, but also ties in with things that had been going on in my life when A. G. Cook and I were writing it," Diamond said. "It's a bit sad, but sometimes I feel like telling the whole world how you feel can be really empowering - it's like deleting it, or transforming it into something fun and positive."

To accompany the single, Diamond has released an interactive site featuring images that help define and tell the story of "Fade Away." Diamond also created the site to expand on the imagery of the single's cover. "I tried to really push the images as far as I could, both technically – in terms of the compositions, post production etc and conceptually - starting to play with a sense of narrative in them," she said. Diamond also reportedly has plans to release an album and magazine next year.
