Daniel Ash had originally intended to release an album of some of his older work stripped down acoustically, but later decided that the idea was boring.[3][4] Ash taught himself how to use Logic Pro and stripped down the songs electronically, then rebuilt them with elements of EDM, including dubstep, as well as elements of reggae.[1][2][3][4] In 2014 he funded the album on PledgeMusic and asked fans to select the songs to be included on the album, which was released later that year by GO! Studio.[2][4] The album was also reissued in 2016 by MVD Entertainment Group and Main Man Records.[5]
