Re: DRIFT Series 1 - New album, Nov 1, 2019
Very nice news. There are still a couple of pieces missing in lossless with this format like the original 47 minute version of Appleshine Continuum. Wonder if those will ever show up or are those now "early" versions that don't count?

I assume this is going to get fixed on Monday and we're just looking at an early and incomplete version of the upload?



I'm a sucker so I just bought the Bandcamp version anyway. Hoping this is the first of many Bandcamp releases and that Riverrun shows up at some point...

it was the availibility.

that said, the price drop makes it great for those on the fence,

If I had to guess I'd say that the old box set was harder to manufacture hence the availability problems and higher price. Probably had a higher minimum order quantity to get the sets made than the new format.
