Sam Means, the instrumental genius half of The Format, has released a new EP to the world under the name “Means.” It is 5 beautiful tracks with a runtime of just over 2 minutes. He had blogged about this before, but I honestly was not sure it was actually going to happen. The EP is called Ring Tone EP Vol. 1.

The simple and catchy tracks remind me of Mark Mothersbaugh’s soundtrack work.
The tracklisting is as follows:
01. Bells One
02. Good Morning
03. Bells Two
04. Good Night
05. Bells Three
