One of my other favourites would definitely be the
The intro track, "Choose Your Weapon"
That was really fun putting that together
'Cause that was
I don't know, it all started because of a keyboard that uhm, Simon bought
That just does that sound at the start of the record
It's just like a in-built sort of feature
But you can just do that crazy sweep thing
And as soon as he sort of got it and he just discovered that
We were just in the studio together and he did it
And I was just like, "Woah"
And then we kind of like, "We should start the record like that"
I mean it's kind of like a total like Dolby THX ripoff
Like definitely not done as well as Dolby
But it's just our little sort of like
Kind of homage to that sort of moment
You know what I mean?
It's like you're turning the machine on and it's like coming to life
And you just know, you have that feeling like some shit's gonna go down
And I don't know, it's an interesting track
'Cause it's just made out of just so many little pieces
And, and we sort of
It's something that we all kind of threw, composed together over time
Like just getting from, you know, that sort of the machine turning on
And then going to this sort of magical world and this little playful world
With like the kids toys sort of saying all the different animals and everything
And then into that really like, dirty groove and all that
Those drums from a totally different session
So just sort of like, we all
It sort of almost builds itself over time
From all these like things that we'd collected, you know?
It's almost like a kind of strange summary of like
Almost like an overture without playing any of the things
It's like we're just
These are all the places that we're gonna go, you know, like
We're gonna go into this video game
We're gonna go into like, you know, into this magic cloud
And we're gonna
There's gonna be some bits that are actually kind of funny
And there's gonna be some heavy grooves and it's just, yeah
Uh, I like it kinda sums up everybody's flavour and there's a lot of
A lot of playfulness about like the way we put it together, you know?
A lot of loose sort of creative sessions, sort of composing that thing
So yeah, I love that one
