Digitally remastered edition of the 2003 album I Trawl the Megahertz, an album originally released as a solo album by Prefab frontman Paddy McAloon. The album is a predominantly instrumental and experimental release and is very different than any other Prefab Sprout album. After McAloon was rendered almost blind for a period in 1999 due to detached retinas, he was left housebound, and found comfort in listening to shortwave radio transmissions such as chat shows, phone-in programs and documentaries. He recorded conversations from these programs and fragmented them, adding in new words and lines from other sources, providing him source material for the album. The album features classical passages and orchestration reminiscent of Claude Debussy and Maurice Ravel, McAloon's two favorite composers. With themes of old memories and time passing, I Trawl the Megahertz is a highly personal work.
