Dropp

  • The main synth for "Dropp" uses a Nord sequenced in Logic.[3]

Trivia

  • The cover of EP7 was made using a circuit board designer. [6] On the minisite for the release, a fractal generator was created for fans to make similar artwork.
  • In an offhand comment Sean mentioned that part of the reason EP7 is an EP despite its length was that so they could "do things that weren't album-like." [7]
