The track's title refers to Korg's Disc Rotary Electric Auto Rhythm Machine Donca Matic DA-20. Released in 1963, it was the first rhythm machine manufactured by Korg. A later version of this machine can be seen built onto the right side of the contraption behind Daley in the music video. The song, alongside the Joker remix are included as bonus tracks on the French CD reissue of Plastic Beach.
