ie
"Daisyissmic Glee"
:P
They use a special computer program that is sent to them by their record label as soon as they get a track signed.
Essentially it uses an algorithm to determine planetary alignment, and then selects randomly from one of the following categories:
1) Space (advanced options allow you to select "obscure scifi book on/off")
2) Really Cool Places That All Well Travelled Psychedelic Musician/Adventurer Should Visit.
3) A literal desciption of what the track should do to a dancefloor. Usually wrong.
4) Tribal something
5) Drugs
A maintenance release from 2001 introduced a bug which prevented the "Eastern Mysticism" category from displaying.

Ohhhhhhh I like this game. :iyes:
If there's a sample in the tune that defines it then call the tune something to do with the sample
just the label name followed by a number. e.g. Hydraulix1, Hydraulix2 etc.
