'While the Pet Shop Boys adopted a cerebral, cynical stance with a society that they were aside from yet engaged with, and Soft Cell were the Dionysian agents in the gutter while looking at the stars, Erasure were Apollo's children, glittering with the beauty and radiance of a thousand suns.'

Sounds like s t e p h a n o to me.

Some of the remixes on the limited edition release are very listenable.

Pughie came up with what he thought the tracklisting should be for the project and asked Stephano to come up with the artwork for it, and then they laid it up on Pughies site. Somehow it was brought to Andys attention, he saw it loved it, and then had the artist Patricia Anders perfect it.

I'd have liked more singles box sets in the same style as the 4 released up to Abba-esque.
Just for the sake of it, make sure you're always frowning. :|
It shows the world that you've got substance and depth.
