More archived material coming out on CD and 12"
29/05/07

For everyone who can't be bothered downloading MP3s of all those archives - good news. The lot's coming out on CD. For everyone who downloaded the archives from FSOLDigital - bad news. The lot's coming out on CD.

Three CDs, distributed by Jumpin' & Pumpin' (of all people) will be out on 23rd July 2007. We're expecting the tracklists will be the same as the downloads (and should include that Brujo MP3 that only half of you seem to have received), while a double 12" vinyl of the record will be out on the same day with a best of tracklist. As below:

1.1 Lizzard Crawl
1.2 Hallucination
1.3 Woodland
2.1 Mouth Muse
2.2 Turn Around
2.3 Hazey Day Girl
3.1 Brujo
3.2 Long Shadows
3.3 Dark Matter
4.1 Distant Nebulus
4.2 Space Squids
4.3 Mango Tree

All reports so far tend to suggest these are among the most popular tracks from the lot, so they seem to have made wise decisions there. Oh, and here's a cover for the vinyl (LPFSOL01) once again nicked from Astralwerks:

We'll have other covers, tracklists, news and whatnot up once... well, once it turns up. There doesn't seem to be any information anywhere about the records yet!

What we're most excited about regarding this is the potential future releases. With Environments confirmed for digital release in the future, plus other archives, will these get CD releases too? Basically: there's still a chance of Environments being released on CD. It's been a long thirteen years...
