“For this album I wanted to effect a departure from where we’d been up to now. The idea was to create a musical world that would feel familiar to an audience more used to dance records but stay true to our own values. So we replaced electronic layers with real instruments: pads with real string sections, synths with heavily- effected pianos, and atmospheric analogue drones with real feedback loops ringing through a stone and a piano soundboard.” – Arthur Jeffes.
