A cool thing I find in this track is that the Giallo-esque horror theme (from 6:32) is gate-sequenced similarly to the preceding sequenced percussion. I often wonder who came up with ideas as this. In this case my gut feeling goes with Sean, allthough I also have a feeling Rob did the most melodies here.
What's even funnier is that if you listen REALLY closely you can actually still hear the drums playing during that part they're just turned WAY the fuck down lol
If you're having trouble following the beat near the beginning of the song, just listen to the second half of the track first, then return to the beginning and it will make more sense.
I am not too keen on this track. It's still great, just compared to some of the other tracks on the album this is not so good. The main thing that annoys me, is that it sounds like a beat and melody that would be at home in 6/4 stretched out into 4/4 because it's more 'normal' or something. The drums themselves have really nice samples, just they could've been used more creatively.
one of the decent tracks on exai. unfortunately, the album had some filler tracks that could be taken out. the remaining good ones would make for a stronger album.
