Notes

In slipcase.

All songs produced and mixed at The Glue Factory, SF. Mastered at Masterdisk, New York, NY.

From back cover:
"I released The Better Tomorrow EP in 1996. It came out about the same time I released another LP entitled Dr. Octagon. I have added several vintage tracks to make it into an LP. These tracks give a pretty good picture of what I was doing in 1996."

Track 3: DJ Q-Bert written as DJ Qbert on the back sleeve. On the inside sleeve as DJ Q-Bert.

Review by awillhoite Apr 08, 2004
To me this is like the sequel to Dr. Octagon. It's in the same style as Dr. Octagon and was recorded at the same time. Automator lays down some fat beats while Kool Keith lays down the fat lyrics along with some help from Neph The Madman and Poet. Some stands out tracks are A Better Tomorrow, Sleep, and Buck Buck. Highly recommended for Automator or Kool Keith Fans!
