Studio-sweepings of Masters, and worth hearing in that sense, but one wonders if perhaps in the bad old days of Record Companies, the company would have either not released this, put it out as filler on a single (hence marginal cost to consumer being in some way zero), or charged less for it (the marginal cost to the artists being already zero). Perhaps DGM can revive the logic of Chris Blackwell and bring out a sort of Help label, where one could buy the likes of Earthbound or (NP) for a copper short of thirty bob. In the case of the former because MC was zero, in the case of the latter to get people to try something a bit off the beaten track. Given the existence of that pricing strategy, the less committed (but still appreciative) consumer can be alerted to the releases where more effort was put in by higher price. Signalling, I believe its called, and it was of benefit to everyone.

I love it all, except for The Idea of Decline, which sounds too much like Ali Click from Nerve Net. And the high frequency beeping/whistling gave me a headache. Can we get a version without all Read more

  I simply didn’t understand it.......  before touched it’s sound using Soundforge and Goldwaves and VST , DirectX plugins. And software sine oscillators. Suddenly it started working for me. Then it was a good idea to sample, loop and sequence some moments Read more

Caruso, Looking at the files through Audacity and listening to them with foobar2000, I cannot perceive any breaks in the ends or beginnings of the files visually or aurally. However, when listening to them with Media Player Read more

As one who bought "No Pussyfooting" on LP back in the 70s, and have somewhat slavishly followed the careers of Messrs. F and E since the first Crim and Roxy albums, I think this is their best collaboration Read more
