this record includes moments in love, beat box, a time for fear and close (to the edit)...the music was compiled by the art of noise between February 28th 1983 and April 1st 1984...on April 2nd 1985 the art of noise had this to say: "our contemporaries irritate us, we detest the neighbour to our right, we detest the neighbour to our left. above all, we destest the one on the floor above us. just as much, anyway, as the one on the ground floor. (good heavens! we live on the ground floor ourselves!!!)"...the busy buzzing flies are of some use after all...sleeve design: xlajztt for the enjoyment of zang tuum tuum. zang tumb tumb's musical director is trevor horn.
