The story behind
I Miss You, according to DoReSol
The song I Miss You by Incubus, with its 2:49 duration, presents itself as an intimate moment within the band's discography. Unlike other tracks that explore broader soundscapes, here the focus is on raw emotivity. The composition and production of this track were handled by the band itself, with the collaboration in mixing by Scott Litt and Rick Will, who helped shape the piece's particular atmosphere.
This track was conceived during a period of intense creative activity for Incubus. Following an exhausting tour that succeeded the release of their major-label debut album, S.C.I.E.N.C.E., the band dedicated themselves to composing the material that would shape Make Yourself. This album, released in October 1999, marked the first time Chris Kilmore, who joined the group in February 1998, contributed his turntablist skills, replacing DJ Lyfe. The record, published through Epic and Immortal Records, became a milestone for the band, achieving double platinum certification and generating successful singles such as Pardon Me, Stellar, and Drive.
