"Fly Paper" was produced by Terry Brown, who is noted for his multi-platinum success with Rush, Cutting Crew and Fates Warning. Tiles' previous four releases: "tiles," "Fence the Clear," "Presents of Mind," and "Window Dressing" are available as part of InsideOut Music's Special Edition series. Each CD features a variety of previously unreleased songs, demos, and bootleg video; expanded packaging, photos, and liner notes; newly mastered audio from the original tapes; and bonus live material. It was 1999's "Presents of Mind" that propelled Tiles into the mainstream progressive rock scene garnering glowing endorsements from Jethro Tull's Ian Anderson and Dream Theater's Mike Portnoy - culminating in a three week European tour as special guests for Dream Theater.
