this is based on the soundtrack of a film called september clues very interesting dunno if its true but fun all the same for conspiracy nuts....

Why this represents 1993 is really quite a mystery to myself. I was 2 years old, so I've no idea why it strikes me as such a dark and mysterious year. I think I managed to get down exactly what I was thinking with this track.

There are too many amazing quotes from this film to not sample them SOMEWHERE in my album. Time after time, the 'yo-yo master' line got me laughing, so I thought I'd pay homage to it.

I'd be lying if I said this entire track wasn't sparked by the opening audio clip. It really made me think about the ways some people create their own enjoyment. Cool.

A bit less percussion and a bit more rhythm was the idea for this. I say that, but the track had a fully formed drum track alongside it until right at the last when I discarded it in a fit of creative temperament.

This track is the introduction to the main bulk of the album. It says "WELCOME TO RPM '09" and doesn't let you go until you've gotten to "Dancing With The Midnight Waves", the penultimate track.
