"The cut "life in mono" in my opinion is awesome. But the second track is even better. Listen to it on a rainy day and you'll know exactly what i mean. Its kinda like the song that closes the move frantic"

"Trying to compare "Life in Mono" to another song is very difficult... the only one that comes to mind is Portihead's "Sour Times."This EP CD includes 4 different versions of "Life in Mono." The first is the radio edit of the song. The second is a remix by the Propellerheads (which is my favorite of the remixes!). Third comes a remix by the band Banana Republic, and fourth is Bushmaster's remix.Most of the remixes bear little resemblance to the original song, so you really are not getting a rehash.
The radio edit is dramatic, layered, clean yet dark.
The Propellerheads, in their fashion, create a driving bass line that pumps through the song.
The Banana Republic Dub is your classic techno/hip-hop dub. No suprises, and sounds NOTHING like the original.
Bushmaster does a nice job of mixing in and out of elements in the original.I love this CD and listen to it while driving, writing, or gaming. Be sure to check out CD2 as well."
Mono what a terrific cd

"listening to "Life in Mono" soothes your mind. Although the song has a sad tone in it but it still a great music..... However, i recommend fans to look for the Formica Blues Remix, the songs their are better than the original Cd. Unfortunately, finding it is hard to find and if you have one pleaaassseeee tell me where you got it. e-mail me @ technoholic_79@yahoo.com"
