Penzias and Wilson debuts with a cover of Empty Ensemble's 弦楽四重奏曲其の一六番 (Gengaku Shijuusou Kyoku Sono Ichi Roku Ban / String Quartet Songs, Vol. 1, No. 6). The track was always intended for a full band arrangement but instead became part of a solo piano suite, then eventually the debut album of Empty Ensemble. This release pairs the cover with the original in a new mix.
