Printed inner sleeve with a short essay by Cary Loren titled "We Are All Maki-Maki". Dutch artist Ben Schot stoically announces the Tawny Owl on side two and makes its sound. The birdcalls of Schot are all approximations, the dry rehearsel of the wetlands and ponds once heard in childhood... When Warren Defever drops his microphone out the window in his Livonia, Michighan studio one summer night, he records not only the 'imitation' of a suburban wasteland but the same landscape that stretches in front of the stone Maki-Maki. Birdwood, USA is a concrete island of sparrows and automobiles sharing a hollow street. The slow minimal soundscape of one night in suburbia becomes a droning backdrop of white noise in Birdwood
