Kiln was mentioned in a Radiolab music special on May 14, 2008.

In 2013 the group contributed three songs to the PlayStation game Hohokum.[1]

gollark: Except in bees, I mean.
gollark: Do we *pay* DS?
gollark: I've seen something which let you define processing chains as Lua scripts, which might be nicer than a graphical UI.
gollark: And I found out the computers all have keyloggers by typing a bunch of suspicious keywords into notepad (and not saving that). They complained that I had apparently wasted a bunch of time by doing so.
gollark: This has never been fixed because apparently the old software does everything they want fine.
