Notes:

The first engraved cat# REF-008 was changed into REF-007 on both sides.

Some copies of this just have a blank white label on side A.
This is simply because there weren't any more laser refraction stickers

* Following on from their "Alien Community" project (Originally released on FAX and recently re-released on Instinct) this collaboration between Jonah Sharp (Spacetime Continuum / Reflective label head) and Pete Namlook (Air etc/ Fax label head) was recorded at Namlook's studio in Frankfurt August 1994.

* Originally released on the FAX label in October 1994 (Fax PW17 - A limited edition of 1000 copies worldwide on CD format).

* Reappears here for the first time on vinyl.

* An albums worth of music (47 minutes) for the price of a 12".

* Before the current retro-electro fetishist boom was news, Sharp and Namlook crafted a classic piece of electro for the 90's.

* WIRE magazine (U.K) said "Sharp's music stands outside the (self-constructed) confines of traditional Ambience by virtue of it's rhythmic restlessness...like eavesdropping on deep space communications...dominated by power surges, swoops of sound, rising and falling...simply like no Fax record that precedes it."

* I.D magazine said "This is amazing: a single 47 minute track of Namlook and Spacetime improvising in a spaced-out but phunky Kraftwerk stylee. 
Ideal for those long trips on the infobahn."

* ON magazine (London) said "An album which discovers the interface between abstract electronic sounds, techno beats and arpegiating sequences"
