A bit repetitive, I know, but I think I was 17 when I did this :) ('94, I think - I dispute discogs, as I went to uni in '95, and this was while I was in 6th form)

Hilariously, I also wrote tracks #3, #7, #10, #11, #15, #18 and #19 (the cheesier of which, at the behest of my label) on Illegal Jungle 1, under different names so my boss at the time could sell it to Cookie Jar as a compilation album while only having to buy half an album's worth of tracks. Yes, I have the CD inlay with "Scott Lamb" on the credits to prove.

I'd apologise to Edie Brickell, but I never thought much of her, to be honest. My dad suggested and provided the track on the basis that it had a nice, clean, exposed section to rip a sample or three out of.

To avoid paying up or being sued, we had the vocals resung by a Birmingham session singer lass called Judy Hayward, who I only met on the day, and remember as having nice (by which, I mean prominent) tits.

If I remember correctly, one of the breaks is from The Dark Stranger, another from Scottie the slower synth stab is from Mentasm, and the bassline is a sinewave from an Akai S1000

Originally written on an Amiga in Octamed, then remade in the midi room at Ritch Bitch Studios (Birmingham) on an ST with Cubase and an Akai S1000.
