"Chameleon" was Pnau's comeback, the song that kicked off the Changa era when it came out in November 2016, ahead of the group's fifth studio album in 2017. It was their first new original music since Soft Universe in 2011, co-written by Nick Littlemore, his older brother Sam Littlemore and Peter Mayes, with Kira Divine on vocals.
It's sleek, sunlit dance music built to move, and the long break did the band no harm. The single reached number 4 on the Australian charts and went platinum, remixes followed in November 2016 and May 2017, and it won Best Dance Release at the ARIA Music Awards of 2017. At the APRA Music Awards of 2018 it was up for Dance Work of the Year and Most Played Australian Work.
