This track is called “Style Change” but it is a hidden track not listed on our album “Everything, Everywhere, All the time” and on iTunes it is called “???????.” This was a song that wasn’t supposed to be on our 1st album. Dj Skipmode and I were messing around in the studio one day making a whole bunch of Dub tracks. We were thinking of making a side project called Dub Scientist of bugged out dub-style stuff and we were going to put that this track on there. That’s why I say Dub Scientist at the beginning on the track. I had been trying to rhyme over this track, but it wasn’t quite working. I told skip, “I got an Idea,” and we did it like it is now, 1st take. It came out so doap we decided to keep it for our regular album. Enjoy.
