Clarinette
I believe Michael Paulus is playing the actual instrument. I’m just playing around in the background.

A play on the word heroin, but it was inspired by a gilded statue in Portland that I don’t remember the name of, so this seemed apropos.

Hello! Video Reprise
Couldn’t help myself, we just had all those nice instruments sitting there, and who doesn’t love a reprise.

Rob a Train
Not sure what we were going for here.

Intertime
I think I spent too much time on the bus.

I believe I had just gotten a copy of Reason at the time, which had fantastic evolving synth sounds. Play it loud… but not too loud. It’s a loud track. If you’ve ever listened to Medicine, you know what I was aiming for.

Moving Pictures
Song kept building. Rare attempt at sincerity in songwriting. Don’t hold me to it.

Irata
Don’t you know, that’s Atari spelled backwards. Boy can you hear that guitar buzz.
