The Retrofilter(tm) Mark IIa created by the minds at (M)Labs, runs solely
on the particles of Hydrogen which it's inbuilt Thermal HydroTractor(tm)
extracts from H2O (water).  The Retrofilter(tm) Mark IIa creates brand new
music from tunes which can be as old as one or two years.  It does this
using a relatively simple equation (below) pioneered by (M)Labs in
early 1995.

The Retrofilter(tm) Mark IIa can be purchased directly from (M)Labs.
Finance is available.

                              What the...?:

This tune began it's life over a year ago in June 1996 with a working
title of Piano Man.  After utilising the wonders of the Retrofilter(tm)
Mark IIa I produced this new track!

The new name came from my bored brain when I was sitting at work doing one
of my tasks... retrofitting.  This is done when a copy of a program I
changed was changed since I took a 'copy' of it from our production
system.  I need to make sure that the changes made by the other person are
in my copy... so it's a pretty boring job. *yawn*

The only thing that really remains of the original is the kick, snare and
piano line...  I was trying to get a convincing delayed reverb happening
(that's why the reverb on the snare keeps coming in and out...to make sure
you hear it!)...

ANYWAY... here it is (finally!)

Hopeyalikeit!

                                Samples:

All voice samples ripped off the 'bonus' CD with the Pulp Fiction
soundtrack of Quentin Tarantino talking about the movie and the music.

The cool 'bridge' beat came from the song Da Funk by Daft Punk.

The rest came from my Korg 01/W synth...
