This is absolutely the most minor and least essential project I ever did. It was the result of a bit-of-fun challenge on the Soundclick forums with the aim being to write a whole EP in 24 hours. The rules were that there had to be at least 4 tracks, each at least 3 minutes in length, and there needed to be cover art too. This was my entry, and it was apparently completed in about 11 hours. The vocal samples are from some weird video I'd seen on Youtube that struck me as cheesy/funny for some reason. Yeah, it's utterly disposable crap, and conceptually terrible, and yet it does hold a distinction of sorts in that it's the first project I did using a live guitar. (It's a long way from being the actual first song or recording I made with the guitar - that was this track - an early demo of a song called "Mescalito", which I apparently recorded on 5th August 2007, when I'd been playing guitar for all of 6 hours. The guitars on this EP were kind of shit even by my noob standards: I'd already done numerous stray tracks with better riffs and performances.)

Unsurprisingly, this EP never had any remixes, so it's being provided as-is.
