- loop of ac gtr
- click of edit used as beat
- 3/4 + 1 beat
(C) 123 / 123 / 123 / 123
(Em) 123 / 123 / 123 /12 / 12 - the 2 and 3 of the waltz on alternate pan sides
- woody bass enters
- then replaced by buzzing synth bass
- drums, keys, synth and strings
- vox: 4 line nursery rhyme;
‘brick, brock, tick, tock, stone the dead duck, dead’
a word on each 1 - change: no vox, drops odd beat, straight 3/4
Dm, Am - first section repeats
- 2nd change: rapid note repeats (digital loop) with clicks, hard pan action
- delayed gtr solo over the top
- breakdown: ac gtr, verbed keys, panning elc rhythm
- drums return – theremin solo
- big low bass gong
- elc sfx – effected gong?
- simmering metal – ends with this alone
KEY IDEAS to plunder
- edit clicks used as beat
- odd beat by adding an extra repeat
