A pal of mine passed on a rumor to me that some kid wrote all of the tunes
that are featured on _Dreamland_ using a MOD Tracker + that Miles [or an
associate] found them on the Internet and swiped them away. I sincerely
doubt the validity of the rumor, but the songs on _Dreamland_ really do
like something I would be plaing on MOD4WIN or something. I worked in
a music store over the summer in which _Dreamland_ was played daily. I
constantly thought to myself "if I had a clean piano sample, I could do
this, too!"
