his sort of big pal, his big brother.

And yet he's totally abused him,

he's an absolute c*nt to him all the time.

And 2-D seems to be the only one

who doesn't realize this, for some reason.

Has no one told him?

He's just one of those people you tell things,

and it just doesn't seem to register.

In one ear, out the other.

- Don't be a twat.

- Trying to get one in, ain't I?

What are you doing?

Pack this up!

This is what I like to do at work.

Watch The Exorcist and zombies,

Dawn Of The Dead, all day.

I watched three zombie films

in a row the other day,

and made myself feel really depressed.

The animator will do the main body of work.

- I'm talking.

- The main movements and stuff.

Then there'll be a big team of people

who are all there to help

fill in, color, ink, pencil...

"Sh*t, sh*t, sh*t..."

It's not a very exciting process.

It's not sort of like sitting down

in Damon's studio, you know.

He comes up with a great little tune

and everyone goes, "Ooh!"

It's not like that, it's more sort of...

donkey work.

But the finished result will be wicked.

Are we ready? One, two, three!

It sounds great.

Don't it? It's f***ing wicked.

What've you done to it?

It's normal.

I'll do another one to make sure, eh?

All right, guys, leave it as it is.

All right, let's just get a...

With an echo on it, yeah?

Come on, come on, Jason! Come on!

You know what I'm saying now.

I think we have to have a few

kind of songs like this, you know?

So we have all this nice dubby stuff,

and then occasionally

we just throw in with a nasty track.

OK, do it in one.

Clearer.

Even clearer.

So this bit in the middle, that's all we need.

It just needs some little thing

in the second verse, on the gaps.

I wonder what.

F***ing wicked.

F***ing great. Yeah.

So what we've got here

is a LA hip-hop producer,

a Jamaican old-school dub bass player,

and a... twat from Leytonstone.

One day a gentleman called

Junior Dan knocked on my door.

And he'd heard me playing the melodica,

and he came in and introduced himself,

and he's a sort of 60-year-old Rasta,

so I...

I was immediately very intrigued

about why he'd be interested

in playing on my record.

It transpired that he's one of

the original Studio One musicians,

and has worked with everyone

from Bob Marley to Augustus Pablo

to Lee Perry to King Tubby.

And from that point on,

this sort of heavy baseline

was sort of appearing on all my tracks,

and then I kind of got sort of 75

per cent of the way through the album,

and then found I couldn't really

go any further.

So I rang Dan up, and he brought some

amazing characters into the picture,

like Del Tha Funkee Homosapien,

and Miho from Cibo Matto.
