Eventually reconstructed in 2007 while searching for material for the From the Archives series, the album was released on FSOLDigital near the end of the year, and on CD, complete with Buggy G. Riphead photography, in summer 2008. The music references much material from the time (featuring elements of "Cascade", "Ill Flower", "An End of Sorts" and "Tired"), many sections reminiscent of the group's 1994 ISDN transmissions, and some sequence-based sections that shed light on an otherwise unheard element of the band's sound, emulating a Berlin School sound with a Tangerine Dream influence only witnessed otherwise on their Kiss FM transmissions.
