Interested in hearing the M.A.N.D.Y. one.

[BishBash]

Are you folks listening to the samples on Muzoic? They won't play for me. :confused:

Yeah, looks like this is a Japan-only digital-only release, like the Nylon Strung single earlier.

Everything on this is available worldwide now except the M.A.N.D.Y. remix. Fingers crossed for it too. :)

Do we have any Japan board members on here that can help facilitate a legal (ok, semi-legal) purchase?

Thanks - Rik

FYI, here are the easy instructions on how to buy digital music from iTunes Japan:

First, you need to get a Japan iTunes Gift Card (or just the 16-digit code from the back of it). Here are a couple possibilities, but Google will provide more:
http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_sacat=0&_nkw=itunes+japan&_sac=1
http://japancodesupply.com/collections/itunes-gift-card

Second, you need to load the Gift Card credit into a new Japan iTunes Store account.
1. Launch iTunes on your Mac or PC, select iTunes Store, and click the round flag icon in the bottom-right corner. Choose Japan from Country list.
2. Make sure you are not signed into an existing account. It should say "Sign In" in the upper-right corner.
3. Click the "Redeem" button on the right, and click "Create Apple ID"
4. When creating your new Apple ID, use a new e-mail address. When you get to the payment method page, leave the Payment Type blank, and enter the 16-digit code from your Japan iTunes Gift Card in the redeem code field.
5. For the billing address, just Google and use any address in Japan you like. You can do this in English or any language that's supported by iTunes.
5. Now, your new account should be created and loaded with the credit from your iTunes Gift Card.

Third, find the music you want, add it to your cart, and checkout.

Thanks, but I'd greatly prefer to buy a lossless copy from another vendor.

Yeah any ideas on how to get the HQ version of the MANDY mix? all the others are available in the U.K
On another note check out agoria set here

[markreed]

No physical release? Thanks a bundle!

I checked and the M.A.N.D.Y. remix is being promo'd to DJs this week or next week, so it'll probably appear on a release at some point too.

The M.A.N.D.Y. remix sounds as utterly boring as as all the others - it really won't be worth the hassle.

Nylon Strung would benefit from stripping down instead of layering some trendy bleeps on top.

so while i was reading up on using Spotify in Japan (it's not available)... I had thought perhaps I could spoof my IP address here and stream it. nope. BUT, I did find out how to purchase this quite easily.

1. Download Tunnel Bear which is a VPN application - super easy to use:
tunnelbear.com - works on both Mac & PC or if you're saavy - use your own VPN

2. Set up a free account (500mb) per month or 1GB if you tweet. Select "Japan" as your country and turn it on

3. Go here: http://ototoy.jp/_/default/p/62602
Here in the U.S. the tracks will display "In Japan Only" - with VPN set to Japan you can now select the tracks in 16 or 24-bit audio (Flac, ALAC, AAC, Mp3, Wav)

4. I used my PayPal account since it was an option - so it was an easy purchase

It took only a couple of minutes, but I received an e-mail with a link to download the track in a ZIP file. I only purchased the Nylon Strung remix - it was $2.69. Once the track was downloaded, I turned off my VPN and dropped it into my iTunes Library and am now listening to the track in 24-Bit, which for me equals happiness.

Goodnight fellow dirts, I hope this post helps at least one of you. Cheers!
