Magic Mountain
Andy Cairns:'The sun was belting down outside the practice room. It was afternoon and we'd been working on Exiles all morning. We had to start again for new stuff, as I said earlier, from scratch.
I think, with hindsight, we all wanted to be outside and opening the door to let in air (and the glorious vista of people walking in the summertime) was probably a bad idea.
I started playing harmonics and sluggishly we stirred ourselves to something resembling intent. Within a moment the ghost of Battles, Steve Reich and Neu! was wondering was it already opening time.
When the piece had come to a halt we suggested that we should just jam, improvise and keep the finished results. Roll, see what happens. The initial take was a fortunate accident, sounding exciting but really long.
We decided to add an intro. The timing of John Coltrane's “Giant Steps” welded to a stoner sludge to appropriate the title we'd taken for the piece from Thomas Mann, “Magic Mountain.”
Trudging uphill to find vistas.
The 'vistas' were all recorded by Mr Gill. 更多更详尽歌词 在 ※ Mojim.com 魔镜歌词网
The Battles, Steve Reich harmonics (counterpoint).
The New Order jangle.
The drone, the Underworld inspired 'rave kick-off' bit.
And the aforementioned Coltrane/Sabbath/Eiger Sanction fest.
It was edited to the morsel you hear on the album. There is a longer version, be afraid…'
