If you've ever spent some time in Austin TX, you know what grackles sound like. They don't sing so much as scream. At dusk, whole trees full of them will explode like botched fireworks. I found an old recording of them on my phone and was determined to find something rhythmic or melodic in the noise. That sample formed the basis of this track. Grackles make more of a texture than a melody. It's a kind of natural white noise, and it made sense to me that the song would end up with an odd time signature—the beat sometimes hard to follow. Austin was my home for a few years, and this track is a kind of celebration of that time: equal parts chaotic and mellow, spacey and frenetic. I miss that place—and the friends I made there—dearly.
