On 11 February 2010 a song, "Natural Selection", appeared as a streaming on Spin magazine's website,^[10] and was later made available to download as a 320 kbit/s MP3 file, via UNKLE's official website. Beginning on 31 March, a Warm Digits remix of "Natural Selection" was made available for download to customers who had pre-ordered "Where Did the Night Fall" on UNKLE's online store.^[11]
