I was wondering why Mechaniceluard wasn't doing better on the charts, because it's a song I really like. It's a result of what happens when I listen to too much Aphex Twin - and it has an interesting story behind it.
I started this song at Logan International Airport in Boston while waiting for a flight to Paris. I continued to work on it over the Atlantic and finished it at the Royal Windsor Hotel in Brussels, near the Grand Place. At Logan, I did most of the loop selection. Over the Atlantic, I did most of the arranging. And, then at the Royal Windsor, I'd wake up every morning, and for an hour I'd tweak it, cut it, etc etc.
It's very much inspired by the Surrealist Eluard and jet lag.
