Trivia
- The font used on the cover is Helvetica Neue
- The track titles are plays on the Yamaha RY30 drum machine, which is the only instrument used on the EP with bits of FX in different channels. [1] These were also the first tracks to use the RY30.
- Due to an oversight, the record sleeve doesn't specify whether it needs to be played at 33⅓ or 45 rpm. It is accepted that it was meant to be 45 rpm since the song durations at that speed match up with the durations listed in the mail order letter[2], however Sean joked that the original intentional to not clarify it "should be honoured" [3].
