... is finally out. Sorry about the delay, everyone. We went deep in on the packaging, which took time to both write, design and manufacture. I hope people enjoy!

Arrived this morning.

Fantastic packaging, but...

Put it on on the way to work and there seems to be only 13 tracks on the CD, not 14.
Haven't had time to check what's missing yet.

Know that - but there's 14 tracks listed on the sleeve, and the CD player says 13 on the CD.

From a quick skip and checking the tunes I know, I think it's one of the Horsepower tracks that's not there.
EDIT - scrub that, I think it's Highland Spring missing.

Menta is coming up as as track 9, Pathwayz as 13.
I'll have to dig through my vinyl and check the earlier tracks as I'm not too good at remembering the names...

nothin odd about that!

massive project, great idea, and the package looks fucking heavy, great art

intelligent marketing putting the unreleased gurley on the cd not vinyl :x :wink:

For those who haven't bought the CD - it might be worth waiting for a 2nd pressing, with all 14 tracks :?

hotboys isn't unreleased, it came out in 2000 - jayda sold it to me when he worked in blackmarket. well worth tracking the 12" down for the a side with the full missy elliot 'hotboys' vocal.
