This is the first version of this CD released on the german market before the finalised ZYX release. Some copies feature a round white sticker on the jewel Case reading "Mixed By GIGI D'AGOSTINO". This white circle was added to the cover art permanently on the later ZYX releases. ZYX is only mentioned on the disc matrix code.

Cover versions:

Track 5 "Zora" is an adaption of the title music from the TV series "Die Rote Zora Und Ihre Bande". The original music was composed by Christian Bruhn.

Track 10 "Natale" is a cover of "X-Mas In Freiburg" by Christian Morgenstern.
At the time of the release year (2001) Gigi D'Agostino did not know the name of the composer of "Natale", so he credited him as "T. Parlo".
In the Italian pronunciation "T. Parlo" sounds like "ti parlo" which means "I speak to you" (as a call to the composer).

Track 12 "Sway (Mucho Mambo)" is a cover of "Sway (Quien Era)" by Les Baxter.
Track 17 "Moscow Nights" is an adaption of the Russian folk song "Moscow Nights".
Track 22 "Tammurriata Nera" is a cover of the traditional Neapolitan song "Tammurriata Nera" by Edoardo Nicolardi and E. A. Mario.

Track 3 "Cosmic Pop" uses a sample from "A Whiter Shade Of Pale". by Munich Machine Introducing Chris Bennett.
The vocals of track 16 "Raggattak" are sampled from "A Who Seh Me Dun" by Cutty Ranks.
