Don't have the Sony album, but I've got the Ninja single and it's mighty
fine. An Amon Tobin remix which is very... uh, Tobinesque :-), a Rare
Force mix which is pretty straightforward for a Ninja project but still
great, a Chocolate Weasel mix that sounds more like it should've been
called a T-Power mix but probably couldn't be for contractual reasons, and
one other mix that escapes me at the moment. There's also an extract from
the full-length release that sounds really, really interesting, so I think
I'll check the album out.
