The CD edition consists of six tracks. The first is a version of the song "Harmony Korine" mixed by indie rock band TV on the Radio guitarist and programmer David Andrew Sitek, the second is a version of the song "Get All You Deserve" by American hip-hop duo Dälek, the third is the track "Abandoner" mixed by British dream pop band Engineers, the fourth is a mix of the track "Salvaging" by King Crimson drummer Pat Mastelotto, the fifth is occupied by the winner remix of the "Abandoner" remix competition[3] and the sixth track is an interpretation of "Get All You Deserve" by ambient musician Fear Falls Burning.

In the US, a limited special offer with an autographed booklet was distributed by Newbury Comics starting from 30 July 2009.[4]

Digital edition

A digital edition will also be available in a near future, collecting all eight tracks from the CD and 12".

Video competition

A video competition started on 6 June 2009, encouraging people to make a video for the David A. Sitek mix of "Harmony Korine" and a YouTube Channel was set up for that purpose.[5]
