• I wanted to try out an effect in Cubase and programmed a random a drum beat that actually became the main drum loop.
• The working title was ”If you come any closer, I’ll jump” which I thought was brilliant at the time. When Helena came in to do some vocals we were out of ideas, something that normally never happens. She then suggested she’d sing something in French which, to be honest, I was not too sure about. I did not have any lyrics prepared, so I asked Helena to just sing the working title – in French. I am not sure if she actually got it grammatically correct.
• The voice sample is from the movie ”Killing Zoë” and I thought the French accent was befitting.
