   aaron sent me an mp3 of his 3:54 'half step' version and it 

matches my commercial cassingle exactly, EXCEPT, the 

pitch.....the cassingle is pitched down to run 4:03......so 

it's quite a difference of 0:09 over a 4:00 song....now, i 

would think it was my cassette deck that was the issue, but 

since the cassingles sleeve lists the run time as 4:04, 

it's probably NOT my cassette deck....bizarre!

	Ed, I highly doubt it's your cassette deck, given the fact that the "Brixton Mix" matches the promo CD single timing exactly. I wonder if, perhaps, they accidentally mastered it at the wrong speed at first (which would match the printed time), but they caught the error before they pressed the CD, 12" and 7" and simply forgot to make the correction for cassette singles.
