Discussing the EP, Strath says: "I Thought It Would Never End’ is a loosely conceptual EP that’s designed to take you down a surreal rollercoaster ride. Though the music is dance-forward, I never want the constraints of club structure to override the chance to tell a story, which is my real passion. Toeing this line is where most of my thoughts and efforts go towards. I want people to get lost in this world the same way I did. But be careful, because like myself, you’ll almost certainly exit a different person from the one who entered."
