• Written, produced, performed by FSOL
• Artwork by Buggy G. Riphead.
• The first sleeve to feature The Electronic Brain, the model by Olaf Wendt.
• Part 3 is essentially an extended version of "Elaborate Burn", another song on Lifeforms.

In September 2020 FSOL released "Cascade 2020", an album that is a reimagination of the "Cascade" single from 1993. It includes recreations of "Cascade: Part 1" and "Cascade: Part 4", as well as two new parts of the piece (sixth and seventh) and nine other new tracks that are separately titled.^[5]

The result was described as "a sprawl of gloopy acid downbeats, spine-tracing trance arps, intergalactic steppers techno ballistics and a ravishing jungle mix, reconnecting strands of arcane prog rock into dub and computer music".^[6]
