Coming out of the minimal techno scene in Detroit, this album makes frequent use of the Roland TB-303 machine, which gained prominence in the electronic music world as a staple of Chicago's Acid House scene.
Reception of this album continues to be positive. This is generally accepted to be one of Plastikman's breakthrough albums.
