issued an expanded re-release of the album. In a press release, the label stated:

[The] fact remains that "Adventures In Foam" was a really good record, one that deserved to be heard, so when Ninja were offered an opportunity to re-release it, they jumped at the chance. Not least, because a rather unscrupulous company in the States have been circulating a version of the record with a changed tracklist, different (and unapproved) cover art and mis-titled tracks.

The Ninja Tune editions' tracklists are identical to those of the original Ninebar editions, but the CD comes with a second disc comprising the following tracks:

1. "The Brazilianaire" – 6:20
2. "4 or 6" – 5:40
3. "Mars Brothers" – 5:06
4. "Popsicle" – 4:37
5. "The Light" – 5:15
6. "The Sequel" – 7:52
