No Need To Ask

1. No Need To Ask
2. Electric State
3. Aliaga

This was the first Culprit 1 single to be accompanied by a video. I was really impressed with what Roughcollie managed to do. The main track went down really well, but I was quite surprised as to the extent that radio picked up on the b-sides. I’d always wanted to name a track after the Spanish town of Aliaga since my brother went on a rubbish academic field trip there in 2002. It’s quite an unusual track – I remember using almost entirely acoustic sounds, being influenced primarily by Amon Tobin and Four Tet.
