The story behind OC DC is sort of funny. I was toying around with completely detuned instruments. I just had this thought in my head, to do something completely out of tune but with composed timing. So I wanted to pick the instruments in my collection that were definitely easy to f*** up totally and then put them into a composed structure. And I have this one 12 string electric guitar, which is especially easy to detune, haha.

So here we go, I played an organized drum track, with having the message and parts of the song in mind. Then I overdubbed the 12 string guitar, an out of tune bass and the keyboards, which I played with a slightly shifted pitch wheel as well :-). The goal was to really not pay attention to any chords or tonality in relation to each instrument.

So after that 'organized' chaos was captured as a recording, I thought about what lyrical topic to pick.. So I decided to pick pretty much the opposite topic of the musical, and tonal 'imperfect' concept, and wrote about OCD mannerisms, calling the song OC/DC.

Man, during the recordings I was laughing my ass off. Then the next step was to present that out and odd piece to Scott Schorr, label manager/co-producer of the EEPS album. And well, I honestly gave that track a 50/50 chance to make it on the album.

I thought that maybe I'm going to get a response like, "what the f*** is that... Are you kidding me?...". But Scott called back immediately and seemed completely stoked about it. He basically said that he never heard anything like that and thinks we should make this the single and that he can't stop listening to it. So here we go....OC/DC, a truly 'different animal', isn't it ;-)).
