I Think You Think Too Much of Me (stylised as i think you think too much of me) is the second EP by Irish electronic musician EDEN, released on 19 August 2016 through his own label MCMXCV and distributed by Astralwerks. The EP was recorded and produced in Dublin and contains seven tracks spanning approximately 26 minutes. I Think You Think Too Much of Me is the first of Ng's works to be released on physical media, as it was produced in two 12-inch vinyl formats, clear red and clear, in addition to Compact Cassette.
I Think You Think Too Much of Me debuted at No. 43 on the Irish Albums Chart, becoming Ng's first charting album. The EP also charted in Australia, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
The EP was announced after the conclusion of Ng's first tour and release of his cover single "Hey Ya". As with his previous songs, the entirety of the EP was written and produced by Ng in his bedroom. During production, Ng created three different versions of "drugs" and two versions of "rock + roll". By contrast, "and" was written in "a day or two" and became one of the fastest songs he produced. The songs drew on a combination of past experiences.
Ng released "sex" and "drugs" on 10 June and 14 July 2016 respectively as the two singles from the EP, with the former garnering praise from the singer Lorde who described "sex" as "messy and emotional and twitchy and kind of in love and definitely freaked out as that situation feels."Billboard live streamed "drugs" on Facebook and released the single exclusively on their platform a day earlier than the worldwide release date.
The songs "Fumes", "Circles" and "XO" are updated versions of his previous songs made under his old alias The Eden Project, with "Fumes" featuring a collaboration with American musician Gnash. Ng stated that the EP "is more of a realization than a journey", while also noting, "The songs are all intertwined, but in different ways."
In July 2016, there were reports of mysterious packages been sent to EDEN fans consisting of a virtual reality headset. It was later revealed that the headsets were included in the VIP packages for the Futurebound tour. On 7 September 2016, a 360-degree music video for "drugs" was released.
