about

• This track has a long history. The chords and lyrics were written back when stockfinster was still a band. We tried it a couple of times but it sounded quite bad, actually. After the band dissolved I discovered that the chords sounded better on the keyboard than the guitar.

• The rhodes in the intro is actually played by me (fair enough… programmed by me!) When the track kicks in, the rhodes is played by Andreas Kullberg, who is really good - unlike me.

• The arpeggio in the outro is played by Jens Jungmark – former guitarist in stockfinster (when it was still a band).

• The vocals are by Jonas Hult, former bass player in stockfinster (when it was still a band). The garbled vocals in the outro was Jonas’ idea. It is not just a reversed vocal track – it is Jonas making sounds without any FX’s.

• Jonas Hult also put down the bass track.

• Marco Manieri helped me with the lead vocal sound. I asked him to copy the vocal sound on Radiohead’s track ”Knives Out” and although I don’t think he quite nailed it, I am still happy with the result.

• The voice sample heard in the intro was nicked from a radio programme called Inner Vision (in L.A.) and the guy talking is called Hugh Jeffries. A lot of people have found it meaningful and profound but I think it's just a lot of nonsense I edited together.

• The harmonica is played by Julian Moore (nickname Oppe). I actually reused his harmonica on the track ”Ergo” (I used different takes though!)

lyrics

There must be
A crack in time
In which I’ve fallen into
I’ve fallen into

So I close my eyes
And then I wait for a sign
for a sign
