This CD was issued in Canada and featured a remix of 'Funk Phenomena' by the Soundbluntz (Toronto based House duo). While the Europeans got a complete release with the remixes of Da Hool, Santos and Mo-Ryn, this single edition sadly didn't featured any of these versions.
The Soundbluntz remix is a simple (and average) update of the original: new rhythm track, filters, downtempo funk phase in the middle and progressive return to the stomping House beat.
