"In Pieces" is another excellent addition to monika's impressive collection of remix 12"s and the perfect accompaniment to Gudrun Gut’s magnificent solo album "I Put A Record On".
"Move Me" which originally came out to great acclaim as a 7" on easugar jukebox now gets a well deserved twelve inch release with remixes by Burger/Voigt, Ocean Club member Pole lends his hand to "Cry Easy" and Dntel provides an astonishing remix of “The Wheel”.
