Pain is often seen as something purely negative, a byproduct of tragedy or misfortune, however, Californian producer Sleepdealer manages to shine light upon the beauty in pain, through sentimentality and nostalgia. 

Sleepdealer juxtaposes the soothing and tranquil elements of the song, such as the sound of waves, the harp and the tropical tremolo guitar, through the name of the track. This juxtaposition conveys pain through the reminiscence of beauty, through memories of sunbathing on the beach, or vacations on a tropical island. 

Ultimately I believe this track serves as a reminder that beauty can be found in anything in life, even something as seemingly negative as pain itself.
