Robert J! Lake, Nick Smalley, Luke Benjamins, and Erik Scheele: (album audio commentary)

GFD: And now, this is the stereo track. He made this one in— RJ!: Stere—
Jit: Yeah, I just, I so suddenly noticed that.
GFD: Yeah, because RJ is... suddenly, this one's on a Game Boy... or something.
Nick: Heh.
Jit: Did Game Boy's have ste— GFD: They did! They had stereo, uh, sound. RJ!: Well—
Jit: I could never notice that 'cause, uh...
GFD: Yeah, the speaker had stereo sound. RJ!: They did have stereo sound. They in fact, it's advertised as such on them. Like, the Game Boy itself.
GFD: Yeah. Dot matrix with stereo sound. RJ!: As having stereo sound. Yep! ...but yeah, I cha—
Jit: How do you remember those things about a Game Boy, like were you playing games on them or were you just studying the manuals in games.
RJ!: It says that on the Game Boy itself. GFD: Right under the screen. Or above it. RJ!: Yeah, literally. GFD: Yeah.
Jit: Well, shut...
GFD: So, you can't really avoid that one.
Jit: [mocking noises] Yeah, you can if you're me.
RJ!: Clearly. GFD: Well, you're a dingus.
Nick: Woah... Jit: I'm not a dingus! Nick: Are you going to take that back? That's not nice.
GFD: No.
RJ!: Never call somebody a genius to their face.
GFD: No, I said dingus.
RJ!: You called someone a genius to their Skype.
Jit: He said dingus.
RJ!: I don't care. [laughter]
Jit: Oh, I just found a battery!
Nick: Woah. Jit: Thrilling commentary by Jit. I'm sorry, I'm just like, "Oh, woah, a battery."
RJ!: Let's talk about batteries for a while.
GFD: No! Jit: It's those little ones that you stick into laser pointers and Tamagotchis.
RJ!: For a lot of this album, I cheated because I'm mixing very different kinds of soundchips together. They're all 8-bit, but I have a Sega PSG here, along with a Nintendo emulation and a Game Boy emulation, like there's a bunch of different things for a lot of them.
GFD: Strange. I like the stereo sound here, even though it's not... uh... Jit: It's not appropriate.
Nick: It's not Kosher.
Jit: RJ, you're not supposed to be showing that sort of stereo graphic sound in here.
GFD: It's not straight-bit, that's the phrase I'm stealing from RJ. RJ!: I like... I liked yeah, how nobody said that about Phantom Echoes even though that was stereo too.
GFD: It was stereo? Nick: But that one was cooler.
GFD: It wasn't as... RJ!: [fake laughter] Yeah, it was. Actually, though, it is cooler than this one.
GFD: It wasn't dramatic about its stereo. It wasn't throwing it in your face. RJ!: That's true, all of my stereo tracks are very stereo.
GFD: Yes. [imitating song]
RJ!: Is it enervating yet?
Jit: I don't know... What's enervating mean?
RJ!: Irritating, but um, yeah. Jit: Oh, no. You can never be irritating.
RJ!: I'm irritating, I'm pretty irritating.
GFD: RJ is fucking annoying!
RJ!: It's true. GFD: But fucking irritating as what your Skype used to be.
RJ!: Yeah. GFD: But now, you're a gigantic fucking eye and fuck.
RJ!: For everyone who has added me on Skype, they already know that, but it's true.
GFD: Yes.
Jit: Awshi... Sorry, I dropped something. GFD: Because of the one time I went to chat you, and then your display picture was a gigantic eye and that's what I said: "a gigantic fucking eye and fuck."
RJ!: I actually... I know. GFD: Because it scared the crap out of me, okay? That thing was huge.
RJ!: It's just a—
