Background

The album received generally favourable reviews on release, and has become an influence in the electronic genre. Allmusic reviewer John Bush described the album as "a left-field treat for both pop-culture seekers and genuine music fans".[1]

The track "Last Night a DJ Killed My Dog" is a reference to Indeep's 1980's single "Last Night a D.J. Saved My Life". The bassline is also very similar to Last Night a DJ Saved My Life. French producer and Ed Banger staple Feadz provides most of the turntable work on the record.
