Another one from "New Decade Reconstruction" series. The origins for this piece date back to 1977, when the creator of original recordings used in this piece was mere 12 year-old! It combines several "Revolution 9"-like strange experimental pieces, with almost all of copyright-friendly materials (like the obligatory-in-1977 P*nk L*dy samples) removed. All sounds were recompiled from original cassette without any alterations in speed, direction, equalization, compression and stereo positioning, although some new edits have been made.
