There's a really pretty house song on there, but it's really slow (around 110bpm I think) and not really what you'd expect from CR. The rest of the tracks fit in a little more nicely with the rest of the CR catalog. Well worth the $6 in my mind, or $10 if abroad. The only thing that really struck me about it was that most of the songs sound like they were made with Roland XP-series sounds almost exclusively, like I thought I could have made the entire EP on my XP-10. I don't use that keyboard much anymore, but it does have a nice core of sounds, and I thought it was interesting to hear them used to good effect in a CR release. The pretty house track is definitely the stand-out on there in my mind though, I just have trouble finding suitable material to mix it with. The Microworld on Transmat worked ok once.
