The Richie Hawtin remix is, just as the title suggests, "STRIPPED". It's very minimal and hard-housey in a Detroit kind of way. I like it quite a bit and think it works really well in a mix with the original version but I'd imagine other people might not like it or find it boring. Don't expect to find the highly collectible original mix of Positive Education on there! I like the SOMA label quite a bit so I'm biased but the comp doesn't have the best tracks from this label on here such as the harder non-vocal version of U-Dig, or Stoned or any of the remixes of Sidetraxx (especially not the acid-house version! :) Luckily, I already have all those. Instead it has some of the label's earlier stuff like One Dove and Slam's previous track. The vinyl version has an extra 12" BTW.
