“We wrote this track soon after watching Daptone Records’ set at Green Man Festival 2022. Inspired by the driving rhythms of Motown and Northern Soul records from the likes of The Four Tops, Martha Reeves and the Vandellas, Diana Ross and The Supremes et al. We then took aim to channel that timeless feeling with “Ceremony”.
Using sampled Motown drums, horns, and a ticking clock, we layered in our own vocal loops, approaching the arrangement much like a DJ would. By resampling the vocals on a Roland SP404 MKii, we created a fresh yet nostalgic atmosphere. We kept the bassline simple and driving to carve out space for Funk Brothers-esque guitar stabs, filling in the gaps with chaotic yet deliberate guitar flourishes and glitches.
Our goal was for the track to feel like a DJ remix of a classic Northern Soul hit from a bygone era, evoking the same feeling of nostalgia and energy that we experienced on that fateful morning at Green Man Festival. (Around 4 a.m.)”
