"Contact High" was the first single from Moment Bends, the fourth album by Australian indie pop band Architecture in Helsinki, and it came out on 8 April 2011, the same day as the record. The band wrote the music together, Cameron Bird supplied the words, and they produced it with Haima Marriott, who also engineered and mixed it, with François Tétaz on board as co-producer.
The album was made in a rented Melbourne studio the band nicknamed "Buckingham Palace", after the photo mural of Fleetwood Mac's Lindsey Buckingham they hung on the wall, and it carried the working title Vision Revision before it became Moment Bends. That soft-rock shrine suits the song, a glossy, sunlit slice of indie pop with a grin on its face.
