• I friend of mine had come up with a piano part and I suggested that he used the same kind of drum beat as in the Nine Inch Nails’ track ”La Mer”. Eventually I ended up using the idea myself.
• The voice sample is from a television programme. I just wanted something human in there.
• Ola Strandh is playing the drums.
• I kind of wanted this track to trot along like a track by Ulrich Schnauss but I don’t think I nailed it.
• The guitar was too hard for me to play in one go, so I decided to do one take for each note. To avoid hitting the adjacent strings, I placed a sock underneath the strings that were not supposed to ring.
