Bliss n Eso sent "Down by the River" out through Illusive Sounds on 14 May 2010, the first single from Running on Air, the Australian hip-hop trio's fourth album. It took the long road up the ARIA Singles Chart, entering at 83 and reaching its peak of 45 in its 12th week, and by 2013 it had gone gold in Australia for 35,000 copies.

The video, posted to the trio's official YouTube channel in June 2010, runs on loose, larrikin energy: they rap on the move through a forest, then break off for BMX riding, fishing and joyrides on wheelie bins. Ten years on, the track found a second life in the video game AFL Evolution 2.
