I can't remember where I read it, but Richard James preconceived the ideas for a lot of these tracks before actually recording the entire tracks(85-92). Some of them were just the basslines & the melodies. He probably took it further during 85-92??? Check the interview pages in TEEX Vol. 1 Derek Jordan
