James says it's "inspired by Martin Denny flourishes, royalty free breakbeats, Gary Wilson and Hamburg's infamous Golden Pudel club." The record was composed solely via MIDI and a Yamaha Portasound PSS-480 and is an oblique homage to the Residents' Commercial Album a 14-track record made up of sonic vignettes that sounds as good on a stereo set-up in the Amazonian jungle as it does coming through laptop speakers. Like Pants' previous records, it sounds different to what has come before: In fact, there are more than 100 tracks that were considered for the release. As Pants explains, "Instead of laboring months over one song, I like to move quickly onto the next". What's emerged on this release is something full of (fake) emotion, set to an exotica beat.
