From Paul D. Miller (DJ Spooky):

Issued as an 8-panel Digipak with transparent trays inside a matte/clear with white/silver printing plastic slipcase, including a 100-page booklet featuring quotes from the artists, photos, and extensive notes. The tracks are presented here chronologically, and if you’ve read Joel Chadabe’s book “Electric Sound: The Past and Promise of Electronic Music,” then this makes an excellent accompaniment.

Track 1-15 is mistakenly the totally non-electronic ‘Phonemena For Soprano And Piano’ from Philomel and not the listed ‘Philomel’. Also, many of the tracks have inevitably been heavily edited. Tracks 1-11, 1-16, 2-1, 3-7 and 3-12 are previously unreleased. All other tracks taken from previously released CDs.
