PS. Does anyone know what the font used on the cover is?
Looks like a variation on Palatino, the serifs on the 'T' lean out. Maybe my linotype version is slightly different from other foundaries, my 'T' has vertical serifs.

Sorry to be so 'typo tecky'.
dont apologise. i was trying to do a back tray for the release. it does look like Palatino but the way the 7 and 3 are dropped and the 1 and 2 are superscript makes it hard to reproduce. the superscript 1 and 2 i can do, but i'll have to work on the other. the upper case text also looks more spaced than Palatino Linotype. The 9 is also more Garamond than Palatino.

So I would check out Garamond. I have three Garamond's. Apple Garamond, Apple Garamond Light and Garamond and its the latter which fits the bill the best i think.

Note: Adobe Garamond Pro has titling capitals built into the base font. Garamond Premier Pro does not, because it has a full set of optical size variants as separate fonts.

It's impossible to get this download for me! When i click "buy now" i'm taken to the payment page, i enter all the correct data from my visa card; and when i click "continue" all it does is take me to the same page again, oly with the visa card number and security number erased. And yes it's the right number. What's wrong here? Why is there no error message? Is there no other way to get this? And why o why isn't there a help page so i don't need to post this sor of thing here?

- end rant.

hi all,
i was looking through this topic and it botherd me that some people were moaning about the mp3 quality of lovely broken thing. i dont know why - as you cant even hear the mp3 compression at that setting anyway - the differnce is inuadible! - muppets!

anyway i think its wicked - has a nice raw edge to it like b fish - and i think underworld are gonna kick back again

But knowing that it's been compressed is itself a problem - knowing that the details have already been removed by the compression. We can only guess at what it should sound like...

They really should have compressed it with lame... (something like -V2).
The mp3 encoder they use produces those horrible gaps between the tracks:( (e.g. Blue Mountain is messed up completely)
I'd say that was the reason LBT was not cut into pieces;)

This EP is absolutely fantastic. I'm loving every minute of it. It's great to see UW pushing the boundaries of their own style of music, which is already pretty wide. It's fantastic.

Question: where did the tracklist come from? I've looked around but haven't found any evidence of it anywhere in the package...

Came from Yannick, he is our offical UW news filter.

If you go to the shop on uwlive.com, and click 'preview' it gives you a bunch of blurb about the release which has the track titles in there ...
