That all looks pretty good to me, Mike. Definetly go with the female vocals 
on "Rain".  If you have any more room, and don't another Cowboy Bebop 
soundtrack, think about "Bad Dog, No Biscuits". It's chase music, but with 
comedic overtones that make me think of a bunch of people chasing each other 
through the chaos of the Hong Kong open markets.
