Isn't strobo = blinking? Blinking tone, as in fast beep-beep-beep?

sounds to me like the lfo rate from a track you were working on just wouldn't leave you alone.

in regards to the song, the leatherette is just the fake leather (nowadays called 'pleather') material that covers the surface of the car's dashboard. makes more sense if you know the song is about auto(as in car)-erotic/crash-fetishism (re: Crash by jg ballard).

15-16? years ago i saw a poster of some magic mushrooms (possibly a "infected mushroom" poster?) which i thought looked cool. At the time my productions sounded a bit trippy, inspired by bands as Ozric Tentacles, Eatstatic as well as the 90's trip hop scene, and thought "shroom" would be a fitting nick sound-wise. Music style has changed, but i never really bothered changing the nick
