The cover art was created by Sheffield-based design agency The Designers Republic, with similar but distinct geometric images appearing on the CD copy, and the two vinyl records. In all three cases, the cover art is an abstraction of a photograph of Fallingwater, a modern house designed by American architect Frank Lloyd Wright.[lower-alpha 1]
The opening track "Goz Quarter" contains both scratching and a vocal sample taken from "No Awareness" on Dr. Octagonecologyst.[6]
