Portishead - Third
"It's In Three Or Four Sections. It Starts With Acoustic Guitar And Beth Then Something Almost Like A Cello Comes In From My ARP With Extra Filters And Modular Stuff With A Joystick That Controlled The Harmonics Like If You're Bowing A Cello. Then It Goes Into A Rhythmic Drum & Bass Groove Which Was Actually The Original Part Of The Track And Geoff Put Some Organ To It And I Added Psychedelic Guitar. Then It Drops Back To Beth With The ARP And The Guitar." -Adrian Utley

"It's in three or four sections. It starts with acoustic guitar and Beth, then something almost like a cello comes in, from my ARP with extra filters and modular stuff, with a joystick that controlled the harmonics, like if you're bowing a cello. Then it goes into a rhythmic drum & bass groove, which was actually the original part of the track, and Geoff put some organ to it, and I added psychedelic guitar. Then it drops back to Beth with the ARP and the guitar." -Adrian Utley Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
