The song "Animals" started life as a recording Joe made on his lap-top. Quite "new wave" sounding, the original song was built around a jagged guitar riff. 

Henk took it home and when Joe suggested, in a WhatsApp message, the Darwinian idea of us all essentially being "animals", Henk developed words along that theme. In March 2019 at Joe's house in Swansea, we worked on this guitar-based version and added some harmonies. 

Then in the summer of 2019, Henk asked Siljan Panovski  to add keyboards, the piano motif Siljan came back with was so compelling that the idea was born to create a version based around that. That resulted in a predominantly piano + voice version.

In March 2020, Steven Separovich (aka column:inches)took hold of it and totally reworked it. This is the result.

Animals

The Third Space is a virtual, UK based band comprising longstanding friends Joe Farthing and Hendrik ("Henk") Kleinsmiede, resident in Swansea, Wales, and London, England, respectively.

Characterised by poppy melodies, jangly guitars, three-part harmonies and wry observational vignettes, The Third Space make music for grown-ups with an indie pop sensibility. Witty, quirky, but accessible.
