Title track from AMUC's 2013 RPM album.
Probably the closest thing to a 'rock' track we've done this year.

This started as something AMUC did for RPM 2007 - the problem was that at the time, it was really cool-sounding noise, but not a song.
We sampled the original track, and came up with this little ditty from that.

Getting kind of sci-fi here, and I really went overboard with the samples.

I told myself that the 2013 RPM album was going to be guitar/bass/drums/vocals. Maybe an occasional keyboard thrown in as a gimmick. Yeah, this song is based around an electric piano and has a sax solo. So much for convictions.
