Music is a big part of our working process. It drives us, consciously or subconsciously, and there’s always something playing in the background.
The thing about music is, just like inspiration, it can come from anywhere. And we discovered one of our favorite songs in recent times by accident, in one of the strangest places. It was playing in the background in the mall while we were using the restroom.
We both noticed the song in different ways. I thought it was quite distracting and Kenny thought it was a nice song. When we Shazam-ed and found out the title of the song — ‘Urusai Tori’ (or ‘Noisy Bird’ in Japanese) by Asobi Seksu — we had a good laugh.
True to the song’s title, it was rather noisy, yet adorable, after all. Needles to say, the song has been looping on our playlists, and it isn’t that “noisy” after all.
