The rarer 7" edition of Innerstrings is entirely remade by Mike Silver, each mix using a different alias of his. The Sonovac mix takes the already great No Shuffle Mix from the CD/12" and adds their unimitable style. All the lyrics are resung, and some more added on a similar theme. The tune itself is a glitchier, darker rendition featuring some unusual effects to spice it up.

Unfortunately, the B-side by Soft Verge lets down the single a bit, being very featureless and bland. Basically, there's a low 'wub' sound every few seconds, and eventually some squeaky noises. Pretty boring listening, although the style must have its fans I don't number among them.

Another good Black Strobe single, although not quite up to the quality of their original productions. The Sonovac mix and the rarity value are worth the price in my opinion, but the Soft Verge is for dedicated fans only.
