Finally a bit of progress… Here's some created and found sound for you all to chill out to… Not much in the way of standard song structure or rhythm… No vocals either… But I'm liking it for what it is at the moment…
I recorded most of these samples whilst staying over at my brother's house – there was a playroom filled with kids toys, so I just couldn't resist!

- Me taking deep breathes and blowing through a child's harmonica
- The drone sounds come from a large toy metal spinning top, which you had to pump mechanically in order for it to spin – it would create this lovely droning organ-like sound.
- An observation from my nephew on a trip we took in the car somewhere (I don't recall exactly where, but somewhere on the outskirts of Birmingham) – this inspired the track title along with the oscillations of the spinning top and harmonica interacting which each other.
- How precient that now, over a decade later, my nephew is a body-builder...
- The metal spinning top coming to a halt
- Me interacting with my niece's baby gurgle groans.
