***Questamation*** is the first full-length semi-programmed album by Canadian band [Ubiquitous Synergy Seeker](/source/Ubiquitous_Synergy_Seeker) (alias USS), consisting of Ashley Boo-Schultz on guitar and vocals, and Jason Parsons (a.k.a. Human Kebab) on turntables and programming, released on March 9, 2009.[1] For the recording, USS teamed up with Matthew Wagner ([Crystal Castles](/source/Crystal_Castles_(band)), [Alpha Galates](/source/Alpha_Galates)) for production and engineering, as well as with Chris Davies and Charles Topping who 'aided musically'.[1]

"It's going to be our hello to the world," Parsons said.[2]

## "Laces Out"

"Laces Out" is USS' first single off *Questamation*. Released on February 10, 2009, it was soon aired on multiple radio stations, including [102.1 The Edge](/source/CFNY-FM), which earlier had "Hollowpoint Sniper Hyperbole" in heavy rotation, inspiring USS to begin producing music videos for their more popular songs, such as "2 15/16ths".

The music video for "Laces Out" was shot in mid-March 2009. It was directed by Jon Knautz and produced by Brookstreet Pictures, along with LifeForce Entertainment.
