Tools I Used

I used Ableton Live 6.0.10 to sequence drum tracks in Battery 3, effects in Reaktor 5, basslines in Absynth 3, pads in various other programs. I made extensive use of Live's time-stretching features to work with the singer's voice. Live is great like that, it's almost like you can ask the singer to do another, slightly different take. It really makes it elastic. I used some kind of old radio effect on Silvia's voice to make it sound as if she were far away, almost in another dimension from the music, as if the music was remembering her words as its thoughts.
