Directly from the notebook, shing02 had this to say about the song:

"It seemed as if we had struck a chord with Part 2, and Nujabes would mention working on the next installment. I was mostly in Oakland at the time, so we would exchange emails. When I received the next instrumental for Part 3, I just wanted to speak about the power of music, and the fact that we need to go back to our roots to discover it. DJ A-1 (currently SPIN MASTER A-1) recorded the scratches at my studio using odd records that I have a healthy collection of, and we knocked it out pretty quickly.

I structured the song so that the second verse would mirror the first (a technique I used previously used for a song called “Pearl Harbor”), and the third verse would round it out. At this time, Nujabes decided to include Part 3 on CD (“Modal Soul”) and postponed plans to press the single, and he left the third verse out. Although he mentioned that the full version will be on the 12", it didn’t materialize then. My friend’s blog leaked the full version and Nujabes was none too pleased. However, I would convince him that there were many fans worldwide who are fully behind the series concept, and that we shouldn’t deprive them from content. In the end he folded, and that was an example of us working out our differences."
