Well, see, this is where it gets confusing for me (it would be easy if I could afford to just buy each version, but of course, I can't - Any Ninjas out there wanna enlighten me?). See, at http://www.ninjatune.net/ they list ZEN1275 (12") and ZENCDS75 (CD ) on one page, and they have this little side-scrolling page-in-a-page that supposedly lists the tracks on each release. The CD list goes like this: "Original Mx, Ko-Wreck Tech, Squarepusher, Autechre Mx, The Herbaliser Mx, Funkstorung Mx, Trapazoid Mx, Nick Fury Mx" - 8 tracks, all with Real Audio. So I do believe the CD version has just 8 tracks, especially since it's a "CDS" on Ninja's "Singles/EPs" page. That would mean Amazon and CDNow have it wrong, as they list all 12 tracks, and apparently for the Ninja Tune version. To make it more confusing, if you're at the Ninja Tune site and click to see what's on the 12" version, they list the same 8 tracks with RealAudio, but then they also list the other 4 tracks without RealAudio. I take this to mean that the 12" version has all 12 tracks, although I suppose it could mean that it only has the same 8 tracks, but for some reason they decided to list the missing tracks with the 12" information and expect people to know they're not there because they don't have RealAudio for them. Except that idea has to be wrong just because their description of the release also mentions the missing artists, so they must be on one of the versions, unless the description is including the Choc. Ind. version and just not mentioning that it's from a different label. So without buying them to check, I still think, unless someone knows otherwise, the Ninja Tune CD has only 8 tracks, the Ninja Tune 12" has all 12 tracks (somehow), and Amazon & CDNow are wrong to list all 12 tracks for the CD.
