Is the Bleep.com version they have in now the 2024 re-press? It says 2012 year attached to it?- Very epic record ! But someone able to tell me why this record is so expensive ??? Even repress record from 2024 !! Impossible to find this record with a good price ! Only more than 75 euros ! I’m so Sad !
- got the original. this blew the roof off of many a Florida clubs back in the day. you want old school breaks with a Detroit/electro vibe. this is about at the top of the list.
It was techno, it was electro, it was acid and it was totally epic. A militant sound of, and from, Detroit, that was markedly the next wave of the original. Landmark UR that took the torch from the forefathers and ran even further into the future. Some say, the best track ever.
I have this 2 times in my collection and am going to sell 1 that has not been rotated... (new).. Make an offer!.. Doesn't have to go for the top price...
Edited 2 years agoBeing a late adopter on this by at least a couple of years; I must add that it's one of my favourites.- On my Archer pressing with the 70mm ring, the sound drops out a couple of times briefly (less than a second) towards the end of 'Final Frontier'. Is this the same on all copies of this pressing?
My other copy with the 32mm 'muffin type' ring does not do this. - One of the masterpieces of all dance music, you can't f*ck with this track, will make you cry if you got a soul.
Watch the aliens floating about................ They know no no thing! vPeace
The main reason this has never been repressed is that Mike Banks told a story that he had lost the master plates to this release........
