Murphy commented on the official site for the EP that she "does not speak a word ofItalian", admitting that although aided by her partner, Italian producer Sebastiano Properzi, "the correct pronunciation of the words along with understanding and conveying the meaning was difficult and tedious".[5] She credited the songs with inspiring her to "exercise" her vocals and make them "bigger".[6] Murphy also felt that her role in music is as amuse for the people she works with and highlighted this dynamic as affecting the recording of the EP, calling it a "natural disposition" for her since her days as part ofMoloko.[6]
