From KFW's bandcamp:
"Wow, we're six months in to the whole "DAT era" project already! I've really been having fun going through all of this music; while I'll admit that I had a certain trepidation in confronting all of this - at 43 I'm almost completely out of touch with my young adult self - but it's been great hearing everyone's feedback & enthusiasm for this material.

On this tape we find most of the more experimental "Oiseaux 96-98" tracks, including two entirely different takes of "Atelier" (the earlier version has never been made public), a trio of short digital-music miniatures, "Sampler", "Numbers", and "Waves", and five takes of centerpiece "Rhetoric" (part of the mixing process involved "playing" the various no-input mixer noise chains heard throughout in real time; each one ended up with a different performance - it's interesting listening to these in order & how the the track was built-up & linearly fleshed out over a week or so).

After that, it's "Madrid", "Corcoran" (for the record my least favorite released Hrvatski track; should have been cut from "Oiseaux"), and an early "radio edit" of "Ghatham" which, in retrospect, I prefer to the full "prog" one on the album. At the end is the ultra distorted remix of "Ordinary Garden Hose" from the "Blitter EP"."
