Notes

From Bandcamp:

Recorded during the Semaphore album sessions, these tracks were not selected for the final release. 'Don't Need A Reason' was included in the live set at the time but not otherwise released, while 'Somedays' was cut together with new studio recordings and parts of a Simon Starling demo titled 'Alphabet Bush'. The third unreleased track was created when the decision was taken to shorten 'Space And Other Places' for the album. Part of the edit was saved and became 'Place And Other Spaces'. An early 9 min. mix of 'Space And Other Places' is also included here for the first time.
