Product Description:

This is an enhanced CD which contains regular audio tracks as well as multimedia computer files.

Personnel: Ed Simons, Tom Rowlands (keyboards).

This seven-track EP (which also includes a video of the song "Let Forever Be") is built around the title song, which hails from the Chemical Brothers' in-the-mix album SURRENDER. Alongside the original version, there are two remixes of the tune.

The Gentleman Thief mix adds slightly Latin-tinged polyrhythms and funky female vocals, while the Futureshock mix highlights the electronic aspects of the track and emphasizes a beat somewhere between house and disco. Two live cuts from the Brothers' performance at Glastonbury 2000 show the duo in prime crowd-pleasing mode (though "Got Glint?" has its agreeably atmospheric moments). Elsewhere, "Enjoyed" offers kinetic sequencer rhythms, and "Freak of the Week" mates "Funky Drummer"-style beats with nicely off-kilter bass loops.
