For Outcast, yes. Every so often, Beaumont Hannant gets bored with making absolutely _brilliant_ and unique idm, so he does a strange collaboration project or two. "Sculptured" was almost a full album of such pairings between BH and poets, singers, guitar players, rappers, etc. Now, BH has gotten together with his engineer for most of his albums and singles into a more collaborative effort, again working with different people to create a new overall sound. The first single, "Terrible" in my opinion lived up to its name, with a rapper Bullet providing vocals. However, the second and latest single, "Rollercoaster" will set it's hooks in you before you can even press the +Volume button on your remote. The CD has six mixes, four of which feature the husky vocals of Sarah Winton. And get this-the lyrics actually say something and try to increase your awareness and/or thoughts on certain subjects. Wow. I say, get it. I am eagerly awaiting the full length. Andrew
