Following Tahiti 80's lackluster 2000 album, Puzzle, this EP was released in 2001 containing three remixes of tracks from the record along with a live version of "I.S.S.A.C.," a song that in its simplicity, tone, and bright acoustic brilliance separates it from the rest of this bland collection. Concerning the remixes, "Heartbeat" -- while not exactly a classic track to start with -- is given wince-inducing sprightly pop treatment by guitar wizard Cornelius. The other two remix tracks, "Revolution 80" and "When The Sun," don't benefit much from having their previous mixes turned into a "Millennium Version" and a "Sunrise Version" respectably.
