The album was released under different names. ''Down Incognito'' is the American title, while it was called ''Made by Hand'' in Europe, and ''Another Way'' in Japan.
The album mostly consists of acoustic studio versions of songs from the three Winger albums and Kip Winger's first solo album. The exceptions are album opener "Another Way", which is a new song for this recording, and the two last songs, "Rainbow in the Rose" and "Blind Revolution Mad", which are acoustic live versions from a show in Paris. According to Kip, he came up with the acoustic arrangements for these songs during his tour of Borders bookstores, when he needed to learn to play the many
Winger hits on an acoustic 12-string guitar.
