Facts about the
album's production:
- The phrase "Underground
Classroom" refers
to 8/A's first
classroom, which was literally an
underground classroom that
was small and uncomfortable.
- Both tracks sample the
school bell, one from term 1, and the
other from term 2. If you wanna
learn more about the samples,
click here to check out my YouTube playlist.
- The album's
production took almost 3 weeks of non-stop
working. I used "Audiotonic" to
make this album, which is a
really bad
version of Audacity.
- The first made
track was "Drowning
Rave",
which is
surprising because it was
the most difficult track to make.
- The last made
track was "Burning
Rage",
which samples
a recording of
me smashing
and grating a toy microphone
on concrete and stone
walls at my garden.
- The loud thuds
and screaming in "From
Out Of Nowhere" samples
"8/A
Classroom Recording",
in which several people in our class were
screaming and intentionally making loud noises so the
hallway teacher
would close the door. This was
remixed in "leave the door open"
- The track "September
2021" is
actually me singing
"September
1939" by The Caretaker.
This was because
my
equipment back then wasn't good enough to make
a noise track,
so I
just recorded myself
screaming into the microphone instead.
- Tracks "A
Handful Of Stories" and "Neva's
Serenade"
sample Kayra and Neva playing
the piano.
- The tracks "Show
Me" For Ladies" and "My
One Desire"
sample songs that have
been played on the graduation ball.
- The closing
track "Graduation
Ceremony"
samples
Back To Black, which was also played
at the graduation ball.
- The original album cover
photo comes from
this exact moment from the graduation ceremony.
- Neva
owns the first ever press of this album on CD.
Scrapped Tracks:
Dancing In The Dark was scrapped track because it didn't
fit
the timeline
chronologically, and the equipment wasn't good
enough to make it.
It was replaced
with Jingle
Bell Rock.
Troubles Gone Beyond Recall was repurposed and it became
"It's All Forgotten now"
from "A
Classroom Above The Skies."
8/A Gang - Leave The Door Open was the first ever track
I made, and it
has been used in "From
Out Of Nowhere."
8/A Gang - HNI_0032 is an unused track and it was
featured
in "AuditoryStaleDonerTenCupsOfAyranAndABoxOfRulokat."
