Notes

From album page:

'My main instrument was a Yamaha SY55 keyboard workstation. I also added a Roland TR-505 drum machine on some of the songs. I used a four-track to record the SY55, and then adden vocals and sound effects to the remaining two tracks.

I was getting into UK punk (Clash, Buzzcocks), and wanted to make my own punk album. I was also really into Julian Cope's experimental albums (Skellington and Rite), which "proved" to me that truly cool music could indeed be made in a home studio. I decided to give "living room punk" a go.

The music conveys my mindset more effectively than the lyrics. I usually spent an hour or so on the lyrics for a song, and then recorded one or two takes before doing a final mix. The lyrics were analytical, self-conscious, often humorous, and tended to focus on whatever was on my mind that day, which was usually myself. :)'
