Notes

Studio recording, released 2015 on the 'Cavetown' album. No direct evidence of alternate guitars or amps for the distorted riff section. Gear inferred from Equipboard and typical Cavetown setups for this era. No evidence of pedal use in studio, but overdrive/distortion is clearly audible in the riff section.

Difficulty

The riff section is accessible to most players with basic chord and rhythm skills, but requires some dynamic control to maintain the crunchy, articulate tone.
