Tundra's debut single, released by Warp Records in 1998. He composed it on the same Commodore Amiga that he would later use to compose his debut album, "Some Best Friend You Turned Out To Be," in 2000.
"Basically, I got a Commodore Amiga, I figured out that you could sequence stuff, and that appealed to the control freak in me that I didn't have to be in a band—I could just tell the computer to play all these instruments at once, and arrange these long complicated songs. But having listened to progressive rock, as well as electronic music, my first demo tape was I think 12-13 minutes, and that was the track "Children at Play," which Warp put out as my first single, unedited. "
It was initially received with a range of responses, with various labels telling him that it was "too long, or too weird."
