| We were honoured when Banco de Gaia asked us to remix this, the lead track from his Igizeh album. What we ended up with was a head-on collision between his celebratory ethnic funkiness and our somewhat gloomy melodicism. We liked our additions so much we recycled them into a track called exile from Planet 8. |

| ...normal now. Punky technoid thing. An old song for us but a brand new recording. The original version contained spoken samples with, er, shall we say, unresolved copyright issues. We completely rearranged the song, streamlined it, made it faster, and sort of more psychedelic, as befits its hallucinatory lyrics. |
