[17] Following Field of Reeds, TNP moved to Berlin and set up in a dilapidated GDR broadcasting studio in the industrial suburbs.

[20] The results have been described as sounding like "dance innovator Jlin deconstructing a Depeche Mode anthem scored by Steve Reich".

[21] The album features vocal appearances by David Tibet of Current 93, Taiwanese singer Scintii and Elisa Rodrigues.

[23] The band have said that during the making of the album, they took inspiration from their idols such as Captain Beefheart, Francis Bacon, Igor Stravinsky and Leos Carax.

[24] The album's release was marked with a "happening" event at the Institute of Contemporary Arts, involving a stage set constructed out of slashed silk and scaffolding, designed by George Barnett and artist Freya Don.

The physical formats were 12" record (with acidic multi-colour vinyl) and on CD with unorthodox artwork printed on a transparent plastic sleeve and a half-size booklet.
