The project took shape after Menomena's recording process for their third album was delayed. Knopf embarked on the project that gave him the opportunity to work with other 35 collages from the Portland and New York areas.

Ramona Falls is named after a waterfall located near Mt. Hood, a place where Knopf used to hike as a child.
It's believed that Brent had played a handful of his own material at shows around Portland, Oregon sometime in the years prior to the Ramona Falls project. Most recently is his PDX@CMJ performance October 24th, 2008 in New York under the title "Dear Everything." It is believed that at least some of this material was further developed for "Intuit".
