Here is a snippet of an interview that talks about this piece:
"The song "Study in F" is beautiful. When you initially conjured that song, was it instrumental, or did it change later?"
Jeremy: "I didn't set out to write instrumental. I thought it would be good to have a song that bridged the gap on the record between the crazy, loud, electronica songs and the acoustic, organic, quieter kind of songs. I thought that this instrumental piece - "Study in F" - could serve as a breather or something to cleanse the palate. I wanted to make an album that could be listened to from top to bottom. "Study in F" was meant to be a respite, but I love the piece. It's kind of inspired by Phil Keaggy and Paul McCartney, but it's just fun for me as a guitarist to push myself a little bit. I heard that song in sections- as I was writing it, and I remember it was in the morning around 9:00 AM and I was meeting friends for lunch that day. I had it stuck in my head the whole time I was eating with them because I was so excited about the song. It feels classical to me, but sort of modern."
