about

• I came up with this track very late one evening and my plan was to turn it into an ambient track.

• The idea for the track started with the repetative sound that kicks of the track, something I stumbled upon while toying around with Reaktor.

• For quite some time it was called ”Hmmm”, which was the only thing that came to mind when Cubase prompted me to name the track. My wife still refers to it as ”Hmmm”. It’s her favourite track, by the way.

• As I was recording the piano part, I felt I needed something to keep me in time. I had no intention of having drums on the track at this point, but since I hated the sound of Cubase’s click, I programmed the simplest beat imaginable, paying no attention whatsoever to the sounds. My friend Ola pointed out that the bass and the kick drum sounded really good together and he asked how I had done it. He forbade me to change it. I only wished I had done something else with the ride …

• When I decided to keep the drums, I realised how much the track sounded like Sigur Rós and I decided to emphazise this with the help of Helena Josefsson. However, I did not expect her to come up with the part that she did. She is extraordinary in many ways.

• I wrote the track in Cubase and then transferred it to ProTools for the vocal session and final mix. Something went wrong with the tempo and everything sounded like shit for quite some time until I managed to salvage the track.

• The voice sample is Björk taken from the movie ”Dancer in the Dark”.
