Before work started on this project, Fleetwood listened to some of his older material to determine what he would record in Blue Moon studio with Scheilbinger and Todd.[6] It took three hours to unpack all of Fleetwood's gear, which included drum kits, wind chimes, talking drums, udus, timbales, a gong, and various hand percussion.[7] The gong that Fleetwood played on this project was previous used on The Dance album in 1997; Todd had the instrument shipped to Blue Moon studio for the 2001 recording sessions.[6]
Over the course of two days, Fleetwood spent over 30 hours in the recording studio tracking various grooves, one-shots, and "an assortment of percussive sound bytes".[7] Several microphones were used to capture Fleetwood's instruments, including four Sennheiser MD421s on the tom drums, a Shure SM81 on the hi-hat, and an AKG C460 on the ride cymbal. Two ADK A51Ss served as stereo overhead microphones and two Milan VIP50s captured the ambiance of the room.[6]
