Anthony Rubery “Pressure”
: "I specifically wrote it about my fiancée who, at the time, had just graduated in Effects for Performing Arts, only to enter an industry that was on its knees due to COVID.

Songs for Sabotage feat. Blood Handsome – “Loaded”
Loaded was one of those songs that fell out of the sky; it was written in an afternoon. We had plans for Blood Handsome to come by and work on something, but didn’t have any ideas to show him the morning of… so we came up with the main instrumental loop and vocal hook about an hour before he came over".
