Spin: That particular track, “Blue Morpho,” is very cinematic with the strings. It must have been quite an experience to record.
Ed: It was about letting go. I’d met Tõnu in Estonia at this music conference, and we’d been sat next to one another at a dinner — same age, and the same kind of very interesting reference points, but he’s a classical composer. I listened to his stuff, and it was beautiful. And about three months later, there were a couple of tracks that could benefit from strings. And rather than go to the usual very good string arrangers in London, I was like, I met this guy, and his music’s beautiful. So I emailed him. And I sent him “Blue Morpho” and “Sweet Spot.” And what came back was amazing. They’re like Scott Walker strings.
