About This Track
A slightly more upbeat remix of the original song “
Halcyon,” featuring a backmasked vocal sample by Kirsty Hawkshaw from “It’s a Fine Day” by Opus III. In contrast to the original, the remix is far more widely known, and has been featured on several movie soundtracks (most notably Mortal Kombat, Hackers, CKY2K and Mean Girls). This remix’s first album appearance was on Orbital’s second eponymous album.
The title of the remix is inspired by a contemporary advertising slogan used by the Ariston washing machine company (“Ariston + on + on”).

This is one of my favorite songs to write an ending with. The terrible fight is over, the bad guy's gone. The heroes are banged up pretty badly, but they're alive and they'll heal. The worst is over and let the sun come out.

A summer track? Maybe. I know I love listening to it on headphones on the beach. But just as much I love driving to it on winter nights. It's great all the time.
