The Event

"All the love in the world" is a clip taken out of an old Econobox track. The tune itself for this version also comes from that time, nearly a decade ago.

Goldmine

"Tyler" comes from an old bit developed about 10 years ago. During this time of "stay at home" I've gone through piles of old stems a bits of music files. I have over 6,000 files to sort through. So "Tyler" comes out of that bag. No, it is not named after anyone in particular that I know.

Tyler

"George" is a reference to George Harrison. It doesn't use any of his music, but I thought the piano bit set up a space kind of like "While My Guitar Gently Weeps." It's not remotely identical, but it had the same idea.

George

Probably the strangest track on this collection, this is a very unusual breakbeat pattern, essentially turned on its head. The 3 over 4 with the second bass layer was important. It's derived from another old track that was sitting on the shelf for a decade. The "rumble seat bass" was actually engineered back in 2005 using an oscilloscope to get an 11hz sympathetic frequency.
