Comments[edit]
Samples / Lyrics[edit]
- At 0:46, a backmasked radio news report from the Christian Science Monitor about the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996:
"the deal with Democrats, Republicans agreed to strip out language that would make even legal immigrants liable for deportation if they use government relief programs for one year out of their first seven in the country. President Clinton has held the accord(*), saying it fought illegal immigration without hurting innocent children or punishing legal immigrants. For the Christian Science Monitor, I'm Jon Decker in Washington." [1]
- Contains a drum break sample from "Do The Funky Penguin" by Rufus Thomas.
- The end of the track uses almost (if not exactly) the same synth countermelody as "Breaking Nehushtan".[2]
Trivia[edit]
- It has been suggested that the name 'Trade Winds Mix' may be a reference to an anecdote shared in passing by Michael Sandison in a 1998 Space Age Bachelor interview:
"It's a small world. I stayed in Braeside for a while and I remember a shoot out near the Trade Winds hotel, when I was told to get down on the floor of the car."[3]
- This song plays identically but at different speeds between releases. While the only digital source of this available is the slower speed Marion (20th Anniversary Edition) version, it's likely that the faster, vinyl-only Demon 1 version is at the band's intended speed. The difference in speed and pitch between them is exactly the difference between 44.1khz and 48khz audio, suggesting some kind of issue transferring it from the master DAT. Furthermore, the faster Demon 1 version can be inferred to be the original based on the band using a vinyl rip of it at that speed on Boc Remii Vol. 1, it matching the key of the original "Surfaise," and the "Breaking Nehushtan" sample matching that song's pitch and speed on it.
