The tracklist is a reflection of Ridha's style, which is usually good news. However, I do have a feeling that he may be on a turning point in his career. His latest remixes deviate from his trademark style. You see, the remixing techniques he made us familiar with were (are?) quite insolent interpretations of the original. He just distorted the lot, added one huge let's-get-wild moment and, if there were any, twisted the vocals. That was until he remixed Feist's "My Moon My Man". This remix showed us his, ehh, feminine side. He did still twist the vocals partially but he stretched the whole thing and it was relatively soft compared to his usual style. The same thing goes for his remix of Apparat's "Arcadia", only this time, Ridha went even a bit further. He turned the original into a 13 minute epic that contained bits of techno, electro and nü-rave. And yes, I realise that he also remixed "Phantom 2" and that it was very heavy shit. But nonetheless, I believe that Ridha may possibly be tired of his ordinary sound and wants to explore new territories.
Maybe I'm completely wrong though, meaning that you've just wasted two minutes reading this piece of text. Fact remains that this tracklist is good news for people who still haven't had enough of Ridha's electronic warfare. No doubt he will have gotten it right once more...

Tracklist looks amazing!
I agree that the Feist remix was genius, but the similarity with 'Shine Shine' on his album 'Oi Oi Oi' was so heavy that, in my opinion, it instantly diminished the feel of bóth tracks.
Sad as it may be, it doesn't change the position of 'My Moon My Man' in my 2007 top 5 chart.
Let's just hope he keeps pushing his envelope.
