Background

The title track, \"Xpander\", was featured on compilations such as Global Underground: Ibiza, Pete Tong's Essential Selection, Hooj Choons' Nu Progressive Era, and many other DJ mix compilations. It is considered a seminal release within the trance music community. It was voted the 9th best dance track of all time, by readers of Mixmag. In 2021, the song was ranked #233 in A State of Trance's Top 1000.\n

The song \"Belfunk\" was originally created as a remix of Orbital's song \"Belfast\", but Orbital \"hated it\" due to it having little-to-no resemblance to the original. A remix of \"Belfast\" by Sasha and The Light (as opposed to \"Belfunk\" by Sasha and Charlie May) was released by Orbital that same year.\n

The title track and the EP were named after the Oberheim Xpander synthesizer, prominently used in the song. The title track was featured in the 1999 racing video game Wipeout 3, the music of which was chosen by Sasha himself. In 2017, an orchestral version of the recording was released as a single, titled \"Xpander: Refracted\" and saw several live performances.\n
