Background [edit]

The first single from the album, "Electric Eye", was released for digital download on November 30, 2009. The song was released again as a double-A-side single with "Antlers" for 7 inch vinyl on February 8, 2010. Apparatjik's first song to be played on BBC Radio 1 was a radio edit of "Datascroller", which aired on June 14, 2010.[10] This was released as the third single on 19 July 2010 as a download only.

The album cover artwork is derived from a diagram related to spacetime theories in the field of special relativity within physics, and follows with the band's overall image as being a "species of their own from another planet".
