This song was kind of an afterthought, as I was looking for songs to fill out the Omega album. I had done this originally as just a chiptune, trying out different patches on my FM7, added a loose fitting funk beat to it, and then finally using wave editing software to chop it in places to make a nice small segue from Where Are You? to Mag 6.7 on the record. To me this has always reminded me of Art Of Noise, but mostly because of the Dragnet percussion sample I used.
The title is Spanish for 'Mind and Madness". I was intending to portray in music how restless I was as the time, and how I tried to socialize as much as possible by going out with friends and doing whatever it took to keep my mind of my troubles. That's where the Jazz Hands subtitle comes in: unable to remain still for too long.
