This is a song about
Marcel Duchamp, arguably one of the most influential artists of the latter 20th Century. Specifically this -- the sixth song on
And -- is a song sorta about his heart rate at rest.
Once again this is a track that was recorded as part of a
Disquiet Junto. As I recall it was written in Ableton Live while on holiday at
Valla Beach, which is where I shot the lightning bolt shown on the cover of the album AND.
The album version differs from the Junto draft, the drumbeat is less obviously different since vocals now dominate the track. Voice wasn't an obvious choice but, like Wind-up, I was thinking about
Andrew Weatherall's advice to producers.
