Dubnobasswithmyheadman: 20th Anniversary 5-CD Deluxe Boxset

[Troy McClure]

My order hasn't made it to Arizona yet....hopefully tomorrow. Very anxious to dig in. I know I could listen to it on Spotify, but I want to have the first listen of it be the full audio, not a lossy format.

Maybe my mail man is a secret Underworld fan and borrowed it.

How's the vinyl package look? I may order it for when I get around to getting a record player.

And for the record, "S.W.F.A.B.N.F.I." still means "Someone Will Find A Better Name For It", right?

And I got mine today, Oct. 08. I really was expecting to wait another week or so to get it.

Also, for the guy that cleaned up discs 4 & 5, I'd also love a copy. I haven't opened my set yet (honestly not sure I WANT to, it's so gorgeous), but I have listened to the first 3 tracks on disc 5and I noticed the crackles and hiss too, and like him, thought it was recorded from vinyl.

If anyone wants access to the cleaned tracks from the Deluxe set :

Some of disc 4 (6 tracks)
All of disc 5
and now I have also included Dirty Guitar and Dark and Long (Dark Train) from disc 2 minus hiss and Thing in a Book from disc 3 minus the 3 glitches around 9.10 (These have been present since its first appearance and should really have been sorted for this release!)

Please PM me and I will send you a link to my server where you can download them all.

The Yellow Rez 12" is delayed 7-10 days due to 'manufacturing issues'

[chrisuk2009]

If you don't want the CD, you can buy the mp3's from Amazon.com in the UK if you buy it as a 'gift' for ~£18/19 ($29). Quality wise it's 256kb/s.

IMPORTANT: Nobody should be distributing or seeking mp3s of officially published tracks on these forums. There are rules written here somewhere about that. But this place shouldn't become somewhere for that - It doesn't matter if people have already bought the album and want an alternate version - this kind of practice should be nipped in the bud and stopped immediately.

Don't really know how I feel about any of this. What was released was released as they intended.. they are not "mistakes" or "glitches" when they are presented like that on every format - that is obviously how they were finished in the master file.

If by fixing hiss you mean that you have reduced or completely blocked out a frequency range then count me out. I'd like to think that the tracks were all provided in a cleaned state, clean enough that they can be enjoyed but not so much that the original and integral quality of the audio is damaged or undermined.

There is hiss on a live recording from 1992 because the recording happened to have hiss on it - any extra work done on it will damage the recording.

I'll take the hiss.
