| == [[Simulation Theory (album)|Simulation Theory]] == | | ==Description== |
| | Acoustic fingerpicking. Unintended was written sometime around 1998, although possibly being written in 1997. It was written on a keyboard, and it was not played live much in 1998 because of the fact that the band needed a keyboard player in order to do the song. By December 1998, however, it was re-written on guitar, appearing in the only complete 1998 setlist. By 1999 the song was still performed rarely, only making about thirty estimated appearances throughout the course of the year. |
|
| |
|
| In the studio, Chris has been seen using a [[Fender_Jazz_Bass#Fender_Jazz_Bass_1973_.28butterscotch_finish.2Frosewood_fretboard_with_pearloid_block_inlay.29|'73 Jazz Bass]], a [[Fender_Jazz_Bass#Fender_Jazz_Bass_1977_.28sunburst_finish.2Fmaple_fretboard_with_pearloid_block_inlay.29|'77 Jazz Bass]] and [[Status Chris Wolstenholme Signature Bass|Status basses]]. An Ampeg SVT-VR and Ashdown BTA 400 heads were also part of his studio setup. During a 2018 interview on Virgin Radio Italy, Matt mentioned Chris also used a [[Misa Kitara]] for [[Break It to Me (song)|Break It To Me]] in the studio.
| | ==Information== |
| | Played heavily during the 2000 tour as a lighter anthem and occasionally during 2001. It returned to the set list with recent 2007 gigs (played in the key of D insted of E). When it was played from 1999 through 2001, both [[Matthew Bellamy|Bellamy]] and [[Christopher Wolstenholme|Wolstenholme]] would play guitar. Matt's was electric and Chris' would either be acoustic or electric. Chris would also play the bass with a foot pedal controller. From 2007 onwards, Matthew has been playing guitar, Chris has been playing bass and [[Morgan_Nicholls|Nicholls]] plays keyboards occasionally. When the song returned for The 2nd Law stadium tour, Matt only sang and Chris played electric guitar. |
|
| |
|
| When speaking to John Kennedy on Radio X, he mentioned that, as opposed to previous albums being recorded with a live rig (giving them a set tone when done tracking), they've mostly recorded Simulation Theory with clean bass going straight into the console, which gave them flexibility to manipulate the sound later in the DAW.
| | Acording to Matt, the words came in first place, instead of the music in first. It's one of the [[Falling Down (song)|Two Songs]] in where the words came first, instead of the music in first place.<ref>CDNOW Interview, 29th Sept 1999.</ref> |
|
| |
|
| === Studio ===
| | Bellamy's explanation: "There are a few unintended love songs as well. The song I wrote about the girl was written in the studio after a phone conversation with her. We called it 'Unintended' because it came out of nowhere, and I didn't mean it to happen, all of these feelings for this girl". |

| | A remix exists, entitled "MG remix", by "Jirob". "Jirob"'s first name appears to be Matt, judging his url, and Jirob stands for "J in Red on Blue". The track begins with an oldie worldy effect, followed by a sped up dance section. |

| ===== Rack 1 =====
| | In 2020, Bellamy announced he would be releasing an official stripped back acoustic version of the song, recorded on piano and vocals. The song was released on June 26th under his own name. Part of this piano version was teased before by Bellamy in an Instagram post from December 2019, when he wore a reindeer onesie while driving a hoverboard, which makes it likely it was recorded in December of 2019, if not earlier.<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/B6jpZ07DMoc/</ref> It was produced by [[Rich Costey]] and engineered, mixed and mastered by [[Aleks Von Korff]]. |

| | Together with the acoustic one, two more versions were released; The "Piano Lullaby Version", which is just an instrumental of the acoustic version and the Obeebo A.I. version, an artificial intelligence remaking of the piano version.<ref>https://twitter.com/MattBellamy/status/1276238232473210881</ref> That version analyzed the harmonic structure of the acoustic and created a series of new compositions which imitates the feel of the original but deviate from it. Matt chose variation 3, as variation 1 and 2 were too simplistic with no modulation. The A.I. was taught to understand the music theory behind circle of fifths relationships. He stumbled across the circle of fifths pattern by accident as a teenager by simply putting together the most common open chords on the guitar (E, A, D, G, C using B as a turnaround) which led to the original song. He used the same pattern in the chorus of the song [[New Born (song)|New Born]].<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/CCET0zLDtVI/</ref> |

| | Unintended was written and debuted sometime in 1998. Matt was very apprehensive towards playing the song originally, as he originally envisioned it being performed using a keyboard, though he could not afford someone to play one. Thus, the band held off on playing Unintended for quite some time. Unintended remained a rare song all throughout 1999 before finally being played on regular rotation starting in January 2000. Unintended was performed at the majority of gigs in 2000. |

| During the tour, he acquired a new black/maple fretboard Fender Jazz Bass, a new Black/Stealth 5-String and a custom LED-Strip Status bass.

| | She could never be as good as you |
|
| |
|
| Effects-wise, he added a Pigtronix Disnortion distortion/fuzz and the Eventide H9 Harmonizer, while the POG2, allthough not seen on pics before, has likely been on his board since the 2017 Amphitheatre Tour.

|
| According to Chris's bass tech Jon Ashworth, the sound is based around the Markbass SD1200 heads running through the Markbass 1x15 cabinets and distortion is layered on top of that either through Kempers or through individual pedals, which are connected to RJM Switching Systems.

| During the recording of Drones, Chris mainly used Status bass guitars, allthough a Rickenbacker and a Gibson Grabber were also spotted in the studio. He ran them through an Ampeg SVT-VR head for the clean channel and two Marshall DBS 7400s for distorted channels. Later, for the cover of New Kind of Kick, he likely used a Gretsch Thunder Jet, seen in the video, in the studio.
| |
| | |
| As for the Drones tour, Chris kept the bass setup the same as for The 2nd Law tour, with the 5-string Jazz Bass making a return for a couple of Assassin performances. The Chris Wolstenholme Status Graphite 5-String bass also made appearances for Assassin. Chris switched from Marshall to Markbass heads and Markbass cabinets for the Drones tour. The Kemper amps, added for the tour, serve for the two distortion/fuzz channels, one for Big Muff and another one for Animato. He also included an Empirical labs Distressor.

| For The Resistance era, Chris expanded his setup even more, especially in terms of basses rack gear. This was the first tour that Chris started using Status basses with the first one being the [[Status Original Series II]].
| |
| | |
| Both the studio and live setups were the same, excluding the bass and amp selection.

| |
| Not much is known about Chris' gear during the BH&R era as there were little to no pictures of his gear taken during the period, however it is known that Chris started using Fender Jazz Basses a lot more frequently. He also ditched the on-stage amps/cabs halfway through the tour, and started miking them backstage. Instead, he only opted for an on-stage subwoofer, so he could still feel the sub low end, and he also took away the MIDI foot pedal controller.
| |
| | |
| Based on some interviews, Chris added four more Marshall DBS 7400 heads to his setup, having eight in total.<ref>https://www.mixonline.com/live-sound/all-access-muse-367983</ref>

| |
| For the Absolution tour, Chris moved all of his pedals and amps into the rack. Both him and Matt got into MIDI switching systems, with their techs switching the effects on or off; a system, which they still use, due to the complexity of effect use on albums.
| |
| | |
| Wolstenholme also got two more of the Marshall DBS 7400 bass amplifiers into the rig.

| During the OoS tour, Chris got his Marshall DBS 7400 Dynamic Bass System amplifiers and cabinets. He also got a Black Russian Big Muff Pi and a Human Gear Animato pedal, aswell as an Akai Deep Impact SB1 Bass Synth pedal. A lot of the gear he acquired during this era remains in his setup to this day.

| Allthough amplifiers and basses remained the same, Chris used two effects setups during the Showbiz era; On some early gigs, he only used the Boss OS-2 Overdrive/Distortion, plugged into the Pete Cornish Line Selector and running into the amps.
