NOTES:
- A June 2000 promo of this compilation listed the Freeform track as being by "Nudge (aka Freeform)" - this was therefore originally a track that Simon wrote under his now defunct "Nudge" alias. This alias is no longer being used by Simon because a pair of electronic artists in the United States have been using it for some time already. Therefore, for the actual release of this compilation, the track was attributed to his more ubiquitous Freeform alias.
