In an interview about the album Dhani stated "I started off with a few demos and Oli had a few demos. When I was working on them there was a clear laptop sound that we were doing. Once I saw that happening, I took all of Oli’s songs and put them into the same format. I went back to England to engineer it. After I sort of got all our ducks in a row, it became clear what we had. Oli came out and we recorded some stuff, and I stayed with Paul Hicks and kind of produced the whole thing from an album point of view. We worked on the consistency of the sound."
