segued from Microstar's set
Segueing in from the Microstar set, you can hear Jon come in with minimal guitar a little after the 8 minute mark. One by one, Aron, Allen and Marc join the fray as they play along with the psy-trance track. By about 12 minutes tdb are playing by themselves, the vibe of the Microstar’s set remaining extremely prevalent. Around 14:20, Jon adds a graceful melody on top of the edrum-heavy groove, but it's somewhat brief, as they quickly refocus on the dancey minimalism being crafted. At the 18 minute mark, Barber brings another new melodic idea to the table and the rest of the band latches on. Moving together as one unit, Marc tips their hand, but only slightly, with his slap bass line at 22 minutes. As their final destination starts to come into focus, the descending melody becomes more recognizable, but they’re still not ready to show their hand. Pushing this set-opening jam to its limits, the band dances around the melody of Shem-Rah Boo with dexterity and patience, before finally dropping into the song over 25 minutes after the jam began.

The nearly 30 minute jam that opens set two is probably the most inscrutable piece of music the band has ever performed. It is the culmination of every dnb influence the band has had up to this point. It begins with a distinctive Brownstein bass line, which informs the structure of the first nine minutes (and makes periodic reappearances throughout the jam). Sammy soon launches into a breakbeat rhythm, and Barber creeps in with the distinctive muted distortion. Magner uses a variety of synths, every one of them atonal. Barber finds a simple theme, and around the 5 minute mark begins to increase the distortion. Shortly after, Magner introduces a glitchy synth effect that carries through the background of the jam. Sammy breaks down and rebuilds the breakbeat rhythm a couple times, with Brownstein’s distinctive bass line giving some continuity, as the jam ebbs and flows. It breaks down more fully around the 10 minute mark; Magner plays around with some digital synths and Barber gradually returns to the muted distortion effect. Just shy of 11 minutes, Barber fades to the background, Magner introduces some more ambient effects, and the tempo picks up dramatically. After a bizarre and chaotic passage around 13-15 minutes in, the jam begins to settle into a more melodic passage. It builds to a sort of crescendo before breaking down into more of a steady groove around 18:30. After a few more breakdowns, the jam once again enters into a dnb passage. It builds and breaks down again, and at the 23 minute mark Magner debuts a new, iconic synth effect, reminiscent of a digital symphony. The new synth gives a distinct character to the final theme of the jam, which comes to a head around the 24-25 minute mark and begins to break down shortly thereafter, dissolving into ambience and finally dropping into Chemical Warfare Brigade.

The Plan B outro quickly departs the structure of the song itself and launches into a driving trance theme, which sounds a lot like a Run Like Hell jam. There is a tense breakdown after a few minutes, and the jam heads towards Helicopters. The build into the peak is very strong.

Jam > Mr. Don
Some of the finest psychedelic music the band has ever crafted. Tense and formless for the first couple minutes, it gradually takes shape around Magner’s synths, and resolves in a thrilling conclusion: the best segue into Don ever.

No lyrics but there's some distinct Barfly jamming going on. After Maze the tape is stopped or cut then restarts in the middle of this jam. It's either Jam > Mike's Song or Barfly Jam > Mike's Song or if you want to get way out there on a limb Barfly > Mike's Song.
