The personnel for this album were Sean Booth and Rob Brown (alias Autechre), and Russell Haswell (from Or Records).

[3] Minidisc was the world's first ever MiniDisc-only release[4] and was designed to take advantage of the format's (then exclusive) zero seek time: Minidisc contains 45 pieces split into 88 tracks which are intended to be played in shuffle mode, creating a quasi-unique, aleatoric arrangement every time it is played, a technique also used for the compact disc releases Masque by the King Crimson-related ProjeKct Three and Apollo 18 by They Might Be Giants.

The release was included in Pitchfork Media's 2010 list of "ten unusual CD-era gimmicks".

Most CD players cannot do seamless random playback because there is always a slight delay between tracks.

People listening to digital versions will get the full MD experience as most music players now have gapless playback even in shuffle mode.
