This is the track-listing for the CAT-051 12" I have as well - the Pacman game aside (obviously). Bonus 12" has no track-listing.

CD-ROM data has to be on track one. I think.

This very much like the first one off of _Module 2_ but less AFX-esq and more coherent.

And this is exactly the same as _Blue Calx_. I love it to death.

Yupyupyup.

Hmm. This must be the live version of _Asteroids_? I like this cos its really stark with none of the nuances of the original. And its completely brilliant. Is the Pulusha out yet? You IDMers need this if you want some of the old school Global Comms. sound. Gorgeous. They had some promos with artwork (not the whites) in some exchange shop in Camden (anyone else go to the Metroplex 12 party?) so I'm assuming its out or imminent. || [CiM] || simonw@sol.ftp.com || http://www.geocities.com/SunsetStrip/Alley/4492/
