I bought the Ninjatune version, Tried by 10... 10 because it lacked the
Phoenicia Mx and the
Sluta Leta Mx.  Then I received the Chocolate Ind. version which had the 2
mixes plus the art was a bit different.  The Ninjatune version had an all
clear cd jewel case and the Choc. Ind. didn't.  It's no matter.
As for how it sounds, I enjoy it alot!  As for the mentioned repetition
factor... it's most understood given the source material.  I like what each
artist did with each track.  I think its a very unique release in my mind.
