Ah man, I haven't heard that in a very long time. Thanks for posting it!
Funny story: the original version of this that went out in promo packs was a lot more insulting and landed me in quite a lot of trouble, and rightly so. We had to tone it down a bit before we released it. I remember one particularly heated phone call that came off the back of that original promo version.
That aside, I had so much fun making this with Sam. He was, at that point, (and still is) one of the best hard producers on the planet and getting to work with him at this stage in his career was an absolute joy. It was when he was beginning to properly forge that sound he has become famous for and I remember recording the vocals on our phones and purposefully trawling those Vanguard packs for generic samples and the heat of Australia at the time we recorded it and the birds in the background and the echo and Sam's awesome garage studio that he had just built. Man, this was a good time.
Sam also said before we sent it out that we were going to cop a lot of shit for it.
I miss the early 2000s.

I've always considered this track pure genius. I'm guessing this was made with a 32-bit DAW given the time I first heard it. Can imagine the cpu hog this project must've been.
