Confirmed by Martin: this will be a 12" picture disc issue of the first A Controlled Vista, the album that originally appeared in the Touched by Silence boxset.

And that's what it turned out to be!

Ah, just came to share this. Looking forward to it a lot.

(Unless it's this month's calendar track...?)

https://f4.bcbits.com/img/a2579542906_16.jpg Paxanimi is out now! This one is very different to the past few, with a sample-based '90s ambient sound (Future Sound of who did you say?). The label have it as two 20 minute suites whereas I've chosen to split it into seven tracks. Digital and cassette ...

Yeah, those boxsets lacked the bonus tracks... happens quite a lot with these things, the contracts are only for the bonuses to be on the standard albums. They're also small boxes, without liner notes. Wouldn't mind nice 12" deluxe boxes like these. I'm guessing they'll do a Blue Years Live box as t...

The original sold really well so I’m not surprised they’ve done a follow up, even if Chris Franke’s lack of interest has resulted in a smaller number of rarities. The Keep is from the original 1984 tapes so that’s a nice one to finally have. Really hoping Esoteric decide to do similar boxes for the ...

Just noticed there are a few raw elements of Interstat at the end of Dark Hours of Your Being.

Oooooh you're in for a treat. Last year's Calendar Album is one of their best FSOLDigital albums.

To the best of my knowledge, this is a vinyl version of a previously CD-only release.

2CD Immortal set with the longform paths release on one disc and the MPB remixes due on the other is now expected.

The AA release will be on CD. Gaz mentioned on Facebook they'll probably do a 2CD edition featuring the longform single on one disc and the MPB remix on the second disc.

I've added a few more tracks that I've found, as well as doing an 'FSOLDigital bonus tracks' section, and an 'obscure edits & promos' section which includes a lot of the tracks Trigger Bo suggested.

They're similar but I wouldn't say it's a remix. The main 303 loop is different.

Some of the background sounds in the track were apparently recorded at Earthbeat - a band playing nextdoor overheard through the not-very-well soundproofed walls.

Cascade Part 1 Recreated - Ok, this is definitely less of a faithful recreation than Yage 2019, it feels a bit sparser, a less chunky mix, a few different aspects in there (notably the water sounds in the intro), different structure... lacks the section starting with the synth arp.
