"The people in the teahouse were a focal point for my approach to reimagining this sound, I listened to the cadence and rhythm of conversations and clattering of cups and found a melody, chopped up the audio to accentuate the melody, dialed in some synths and lo-fi drums to act as the vehicle for that melody and took it some weird and wonderful places, here are some interesting points from the piece: "I wanted to include some nods to China in this piece, the gongs at the beginning and end, the mandarin phrases which were "Begin" "Breakdown" and "The End" and the slightly more hidden one in the form of a modulated recording of a Chinese water goose in the breakdown at the end. "I wanted the whole thing to feel like you were listening to a record so there's a vinyl recording throughout the whole thing and a needle on and off sound at either end." Chongqing tea house reimagined by Gary Pitt.
