I just picked this up. I have to listen to it again to really get into it, but so far I really enjoyed 'Out There Somewhere?'. My beef, though is that on the bonus disc, The Box EP is represented as 1 amalgamous track, not the four separate but connected tracks on the UK EP. That pisses me off, kind of. Anyone else feel the same? Did US FFRR just get lazy? Or was there a reason for it? Which brings me to another question. How did they break up the tracks on the 12" EP? Andrew

According to something I saw on the Orbital web page, it's meant to be played as one continuous piece of music. They put the track divisions in there on the original single to represent the different sections. Of course, they might have done that to conform to the screwy UK chart rules. Not sure on that, as I'm not sure on the rules. -- guyjr@cc.gatech.edu a.k.a., Guy Elden Jr.
