Track 1 : A short instrumental interlude using a now-defunct Crumar organ. A different version appeared on the Hidden Songs 7” released by Liquefaction Empire in 2000. Recorded at home in Leicester.
Track 2 : An alternate take from the VPRO Dutch radio version that appeared on the 2001 mini-album An Empty Box Is My Heart (Alice In Wonder Records). Features Grant Painter on drums and Lily Caprani on violin. Recorded by Paul Warrener at Seamus Wong studio in Leicester.
Track 3 : Originally released on the Alice Will Never Surrender compilation album, this was our first contribution to the Alice In Wonder label based inDijon, France. Recorded by Paul Warrener at Seamus Wong studio in Leicester.
Track 4 : Featuring a charity-shop Bontempi organ, this is also an alternate take of a song from the 2001 mini-album An Empty Box Is My Heart. Recorded at home in Leicester.
Track 5 : An instrumental interlude that saw us experimenting with tape speeds on our Tascam 4-track. Recorded at home in Leicester.
Track 6 : A track written around a simple floor tom pattern recorded on a single mic through a guitar amp. Recorded at home in Leicester.
Track 7 : An interlude to mark our move from Leicester to Manchester. Recorded in Stayfree rehearsal rooms before leaving the city.
Track 8 : One of the first songs written with new pianist Gina Murphy, this was our contribution to the annual VPRO (Dutch radio) Christmas compilation album curated by the De Avonden show. The album also featured Califone, Savoy Grand, Willard Grant Conspiracy and Müm. Recorded at home in Manchester.
Track 9 : A collage piece created using a dying Hammond organ in our Manchester rehearsal room and various vocal loops.
Track 10 : Recorded in Salford University’s piano practice rooms on a single mic, this is a short fragment that never developed into a full song.

Track 14 : Recorded as a soundtrack to K. Craig’s short film The Note, we improvised the music in one-take while watching the film at home. (Sarah Kemp then added more of her inimitable blind-take violins.) The film starred Marc Rahr and was released as a ‘film for your computer’ on the Hold Fast, Pioneer album.
Track 15 : One of only two songs on this compilation to feature long-term temporary drummer Huw McPherson (also of the legendary Lazarus Clamp), this early version of a song from Hold Fast, Pioneerwas mixed by Alex Green and featured on a Slow Noir Records compilation. Recorded in Salford.
