about

The big pad work at the start of this song took quite a while to get right. In fact, the first three minutes of this track were my last to be recorded using the Atari with live mixing and mastering. There's some big modular work here and lots of little P3 loops pop up all over the place during the second half of the track.

The vocal work is all Rachel on this one. The lyrics in the middle section are 'sort of' in Latin and were partly inspired by the theme music from the BBC's 'Silent Witness'. It's all nonsense really but it was great fun recording it.
