about

The basis of this song was written in a soundcheck at The Green Door Store, a gig with Emma Gatrill, I remember looping the chords and adding the main melody. Then I recorded it at home and tried lots of modular synth ideas, originally it was about twice the length but I had to cut it down considerably and just keep the best bits. A lot of this album was carved out of longer improvisations like that. One of the synth lines sounded like Colin Stetson’s playing, so I emailed him and asked if he’d be up for recording it. I’m very grateful that he said yes, and even added a little tenor sax countermelody. My Crudman, a Walkman where the speed of the motor (and therefore the pitch of the sound) can be MIDI controlled, makes its first appearance on this track.

The Quietus wrote his music "could be called post-rock if it didn't also sound pre-rock or maybe as if rock had never happened & folk, modern jazz & the classical avant-garde had merged into a stream of hip, innovative music to soundtrack the changes & discontents of the second half of the twentieth century instead, & Joe Meek had dug John Cage." ... more
