Yes it will be back in stock soon, sans le box.
I think I've seen that talk, or maybe read where he's said it's something about moving things forward and that past tunes should be in memories. Something like that anyway
i dont think they will be puting out any more... it defeats the perpose of only putting out 1000 copies. they would not have made much money on these box sets, think of all the artwork, seperate covers and pressing on 180g etc. too only make make 1000, means that it was just a special thing they did for the fans. would love a double sided vinyl 33rpm or what ever...the whole album. they should do that ay.
My information came from the mouth of a record shop that regularly has DMZ w/l promos which are only available in that shop. As far as I'm concerned, if they've heard it's coming back in, then it's coming back in...

You can order the CD now on Bleep, pretty sure it comes out in like 10 days or so

Is it just me, or is the bass on this album pretty much the heaviest thing ever? Like, I don't think any other dubstep album I've ever listened to sounds this bassy. It somehow sounds and feels like it's coming out of a club system even when I'm just listening on my home hi-fi. Absolutely incredible.

Yeah I was thinking this, I think the mastering helps allow for so much sub bass, it's mastered really well. Nice and dynamic but not too quiet.

Definitely want to try and catch Mala on his tour now to hear these tunes on a proper system!

And Noches Sueños is unreal. If I had to pick a weakest track I'd say The Tourist, it's a nice song, just didn't do quite as much for me as the others on there.
Brilliant packaging too, great liner notes from Blackdown. And it's nice that there's enough space in the box for the Cuba Electronic 12" haha :h:
I thought that was the point to make it the full box set.
Yeah it says on the notes inside that the Cuba Electronic 12" completes the box set... so naturally I had to order myself a copy to put in the box! :corndance: Should arrive tomorrow :)
Ah shit, yeah, kinda forgot that haha

You don't really worry about paying taxes, you get paid after it's gone. You never really notice.

I got 2 copies for £70 no delivery charges :4: would be sick to save my 2nd in shrink wrap till say 30yrs time and give it to my grandson to blow his mind and possibly his load :lol: I do however think limited edition can be good, well if you managed to get a copy. Not so good for those who don't.
Can someone please explain why some artists only do limited or never get a repress? I mean some releases would just sell sell sell if there was more copies. More sales means more money right? I just don't get it. This release for instance may only have 1000 copies but if there were 10,000 it would mean more happy vinyl lovers and more money for all involved in the realese.

listening to the album for the first time right now, truly an amazing album. The bass sounds so good and the percussion is amazing.

I really hope no one is going to complain that other people are going to own something they own because that's pretty fucking stupid

My mate's copy arrived last night (in NZ). He invited a bunch of friends around and the first thing any of them did when they got through the door was walk up and start strokiing the box. Had 3 turntables set up for the occassion. Made a table out of an old door on top of a washing machine. Times :4:
