I first discovered Alan Braxe and DJ Falcon in the late 90s when they were making music at Roulé. Their music was part of the soundtrack to my youth and also an inspiration to me as a budding producer. Music like theirs proved that less is sometimes more and that if you have the right ingredients and know how to use them—the recipe can be simple. After they sent me a demo, I recorded parts on guitar, bass and keyboards, and we bounced files back and forth to each other. E.g. I'd play a bass, they'd tweak it and send it back, I'd learn the tweaked bass and play it back on the guitar so it would still sound live. It was a new way of working for me that kept things fresh. Alan gave me a theme for the lyrics, but I wrote them in such a way that they could be interpreted in different ways, which is what I like to do with lyrics. We wanted the song to sound bittersweet but hopeful – the chords move between contrasting emotions, so I wanted the meaning behind the words to match that.
