***Actually the 12" material you list above is his more DJ/dance/uptempo
oriented material, and is available on 12" only. The material on
Dettinger's "Intershop" CD is, while still super good, more of a downtempo
companion to the 12"s and the CD material is all exclusive to the CD and has
not
been released elsewhere or on 12". So the CD and the 12"s have
no crossover other than that they're all by the same guy. If you like the CD
and want to investigate his more uptempo material, I'd advise you to check
out the 12"s as well. Andrew Duke
