Comments
- Joe Clay: "Another beatless drone-piece, with arpeggiated synths and a subtle melody. It sounds retro-futurist as only BOC can – the perfect marriage between the warmth of analogue and the stark clarity of digital; a theme that is repeated throughout the album. As it evolves it gets darker, reminiscent of John Carpenter. It's pretty spooky." [1]
- "White Cyclosa" is highly reminiscent of, and maybe a homage to, music from the film Day of the Dead (1985). Suggested comparison - the opening sequence of "The Dead Suite" on the soundtrack album, credited to John Harrison.
Samples / Lyrics
- The sound of a large helicopter's blades whirring plays throughout most of the track.
Trivia
- Cyclosa is a species of spider that spins its silk into life-size decoys of itself to aid in hunting prey. [2]
