The first installment in Alva Noto's Xerrox series, this album builds a sonic world from manipulated, fragmented samples of existing sound, creating a hauntingly familiar yet alien soundscape.
- The Xerrox series is based on the concept of a digital "copy" of the world, altering and recontextualizing existing sound material.
- The album features a notable collaboration with Ryuichi Sakamoto on the track "Hazy."
- The release was issued on Nicolai's own NOTON label.
