Shape.01 has a very special within my heart being the first album I had actually completed. I made it around halfway through my time in college with the project initially codenamed "Project DOTM" before becoming Shape.01. With that information you could probably deduce that the first song I had done for the project was Dance Of The Machines and you would be correct. Almost every idea is built off of the foundation Dance Of The Machines laid along with inspirations from other artists and games. I remember during the time I had been listening to a lot of the Halo 3/Halo Wars ost along with the Conker: Live and Reloaded ost. Those were big inspirations to me throughout the creation of the album. I'm sure if you listened closely enough you may be able to find the exact song inspirations I had used.
