Dance (House, Techno)

Identical to Innovator but the discs do not explicitly mention Disctronics. Another release, Innovator, has slightly different tray inlays. The human-readable part of the barcode is correct, but the actual bars are invalid and cannot be scanned. Issued in a double thick "fatboy" jewel case. Cat# on spine: TMT CD 4 Cat# on discs: TMT CD4 The main artist is billed as Derrick May on the spine, booklet, and tray inlay. Secondary main artist credits for Rythim Is Rythim and Mayday appear on the front and back of the booklet, as well as the tray inlay. The tracklisting shown on the release contains a number of errors for disc 1: Parentheses are missing from the title of track 3, "Another Kaos (Beyond Kaos)". "Beyond Kaos" is listed as track 6 but is actually appended to track 5. "Another 'Rest'" and "The Dance" are listed as tracks 7 & 8 but are actually sequenced together in track 6. "A Little Spaced Out", "Daymares", and "It Is What It Is" are listed as tracks 9, 10 & 11, but are actually tracks 7, 8 & 9. The reprise at the end of "It Is What It Is" is sequenced as track 10, and is unlisted. Track 11 is unlisted. Track 14, "R-Theme", contains a 0:20 unlisted track prior to the start of the song. The tracklisting shown on the release for disc 2 also contains errors: Track 3, "Phantom (A Relic Mix)", is listed as tracks 3 &4, "Phantom" & "A Relic Mix". "Kaotic Harmony", "More Phantom", "Salsa Life" and "Nude Photo" are listed as tracks 5 to 8, but are actually tracks 4 to 7. "The Beginning" is listed as track 9, but actually spans both tracks 8 & 9. Parentheses are missing from the title of "Another Relic (From The Relics)". Tracks 12 & 13 are listed with the mix titles offset by a dash instead of in parentheses. Surface noise indicates "R-Theme" was mastered from vinyl. Mastered and edited in Detroit.
