Following the success Kimberley had on the dance charts with remixes of her prior singles, she was excited to release her first dance song in its original state. "It's exciting for me to come out of the gate with a dance song. '8th World Wonder' 'Band of Gold' were both remixed as dance songs but 'Strobelight' is straight out of the gate as a dance song."[2] Unlike her other singles, this is her first to not be in support of a full album. "I signed a singles only deal with Randy Jackson so there will be no album. We live in a world where people go to itunes and download the songs they want."[3]
