The meanings behind these pieces of music have been lost to time. The ideas and inspirations behind Input Lag may have been manifold. (It seems to contain nods to Game of Thrones and Eurythmics, but who knows…) One thing is known: the working title for this album was Drums Slower (or Slower Drums), and this one is defo slower, while other tracks on the album contain the drums. Here percussion comes in after the two minute mark, and the drums do remain slow for the remainder of the track. The title, Input Lag, might refer to that uncharacteristically slow tempo. Then again, it might just be a gaming idiom reference like so many of the track names on WV.

Input Lag is the closing track on this compilation album from 2014: https://dualmoderecords.bandcamp.com/album/goodbye-wi-fi-diy
