Notes and miscellanea
- The song "Silhouette Harbor" was originally intended to be on the album Moonfish Parachutist 2. However, this album has yet to come to fruition. The release of Music encouraged the band to place it on this album instead.
- As an added bonus to the success of the kickstarter, Windsor Airlift released The Adventures of Flames Pond in its entirety to YouTube.[13]
