I was basically taking the proverbial piss with the dub-step hip hop intro of this track and intended it as a bit of a joke. The music quickly degrades into a cacophony of distorted scraping cellos and violas as an early 80s new wave influenced pounding barren drum track sets the pace of this rare Bedtime for Robots vocal-based track. I sang all the machine-like vocals through several processors and layered them using several tracks to create the robot cyber choir.
