Personally, I think the track "Safer" is worth the price of this CD alone. Fortunately, that's what saves it, as the two remixes of "Peacebone" aren't very good, and the original version is on "Strawberry Jam," which you should already own.

The song "Safer" truly is an amazing experience, and while having no choice but to acknowledge it's brilliance, you can't help but agree with their decision to not put it on the album. One of the great things about "Strawberry Jam" is how seamlessly it flows as an album. One of the best albums of this decade so far. But there's no conceivable section of the album that would work with "Safer." It's just as good if not better than some songs on "Strawberry Jam," but it feels as though maybe it's the next evolution of their sound (no two of their albums sound alike), in which case I already can't wait for their next album.

Definitely a must have for ac fans. Its peacebone remixes are rather dull but the nine minute "safer" is well worth the money, especially if you're into their more unstructured stuff. Safer is a real journey when listened to and it has a real feeling of its own, which is why it wasn't released on strawberry jam.

it's as if each remix touches on two opposing extremes of the album version - and Pantha Du Prince is a great discovery any day of the week.
