"The song came from a very fragmented rhythm which I found really interesting as a musical basis for everything else," says Wilson. "It ended up being this kind of soulful ballad. One of the things I'm really proud of Inclination is this big silence in the middle of the song and you think the song's over but actually it isn't over, it's just about to begin again.

"[Ewan] has done an amazing job remixing Inclination turning it into a hypnotic cosmic disco odyssey... "
