A MESSAGE FROM OUR SPONSORS is the obligatory interlude: Short and campy, just the way I like 'em.
The track was built from a very fitting sample of Dr Pepper's 1977-1985 "Be A Pepper" advertising campaign, featuring a young David Naughton. The exact commercial used can be seen here:

This is the second track that received a cleaner sample, ripped from a student film assignment that I stumbled across by chance (basically a zero-budget schoolyard remake against the song, which I cannot find now). How the student found a higher quality version of the song, I'll never know, but I'm not going to complain!

A exploration of different flavors of electronica, slotting different pieces into a simple, yet satisfying framework to create something multi-faceted, yet connected.
There's some flavors of ambience sneaking around near the ending and some harsher tones explored in 'Minus' that almost give it a factory-like feel, but the biggest standout is the synth-pop flavor added in 'Grey Eminence'.
This one's a grab bag with a lot of fun stuff tucked inside, definitely give it a listen. Cardian Matsu
