Despite that, the tunes are decent, especially the &#8220;Light&#8221; mix. The two B side mixes were both produced by UK Tribe, who did some OK singles on their label <a href=\"http:\/\/www.discogs.com\/label\/45266-Ava-Aura-Records-Ltd\">Ava Aura<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>What surprises me most about this EP is that it&#8217;s a full picture sleeve release, with color label etc. No one-off hasty test press or promo business here! With that in mind, I&#8217;d think that they must have pressed at least 1000 or more of these. And yet, I&#8217;d never heard of this EP or seen any copies for sale up until a single copy went on discogs last year (via Craig\/Crugga).  Googling for it didn&#8217;t turn up any old results either. Every now and then a single will &#8220;slip through the cracks&#8221; liek this despite being somewhat plentiful, not getting propery listed simply because no one wants to bother adding it. But usually stuff like this still shows up in some form &#8211; on other sites, mentioned somewhere, etc. The fact that this one never did, leads me to wonder if either the pressing was cancelled, or somewhere in the world there&#8217;s a big cardboard box or two filled with hundreds of copies of this.
