10 remixes from 10 DJs of 10 tracks from Prophetica's last album, 'Walkaway'. These remixes are generally harder edged than the original album, and there is more variety due to the wide range of DJs employed. Sheltershed and Redsavior will be familiar names to some, but most others are previously unknown to this reviewer, though they do produce some of the best material heard here. "One Thousand Times" has a euphoric trance feel, while "I Want More" is more "big-beat" รก la Chemical Brothers. "Healing Comes", mixed by DJ Matt Harder, has one of those deep and brooding bass lines typically found in Goldie's music, but the rhythms are not so intricate. "Detox For The Masses" is different again, with a US hard house kind of feel, with the pounding kick-drum and repetitive synth motifs. So for some, this could be more interesting than the original release, being harder, deeper and darker. And less commercial.
