Background
"Channeling, Pt. 2" is a song by Mike Shinoda made during the 2020 global COVID-19 pandemic.
In March 2020, the global pandemic created by the COVID-19 coronavirus caused communities to quarantine at home. During this time, Mike Shinoda decided to start live streaming online and inviting fans to watch him create new instrumental music.
"Channeling, Pt. 1" was a track made by Mike on May 21, 2020. This jam's working title was "5.21 Mayo Channeling A" and features Dan Mayo.[1] Dan Mayo was Mike's drummer on the Post Traumatic World Tour in 2018 and 2019. The track is part two of a two part instrumental, the other being "Channeling, Pt. 1."
Mike said, "Mayo is just like not really a human being. He just bleeds these rhythms. He doesn't need to think about it, he doesn't need to practice it. He just sits down at the drums and does this for as long as you let him. We were walking through a shopping mall in America somewhere and he'd grab things and just be tapping on the furniture, tapping on the merchandise. We were walking out of the mall and he couldn't help but touch the crystal, and the glass, and the china.... run his finger over it and make a noise. We were like, "How do you get around in life without breaking shit all the time?" Tapping on everything, I feel like he's going to knock shit down."
