So I own ~100 New Order records and these are the Best Sounding versions of these tracks. I'm hearing details for the first time such is the clarity here. I'm enjoying listening to the separation of the instruments. It's gotten expensive now but worth tracking down...
A delightful compilation. I always loved New Order more as a singles band than a full albums one (and some of their best songs ONLY have been published as singles), and this has almost all the gems in the most interesting mixes (unless you prefer the longer 12" versions of some). Excellent pressing too, with spectacular sound quality and no noise at all. Expensive but worth its price: almost definitive.
Sound is very good. But, for such an expensive set, you would expect at least a booklet or something extra. Box set contains download code, info sheet, 4 vinyl discs and that is it. You will want to upgrade the inner sleeves.
Excellent pressing. This comes from the corrected 2016 master, which replaces many album versions that appeared on the 2005 master with their correct single edits/mixes. MORE IMPORTANT it corrects the horrible brickwalling issue that plagued the 2005 master. The vinyl pressing is full, clear and clean with almost no surface noise and excellent bass. I recommend turning the subwoofer up a bit on this one, you won't be sorry!
The packaging is minimal, with an beautiful gold embossed outer box. The records are housed inside 4 pictures sleeves that can be combined to form a larger version of the gold leaf from the cover. My only complaint is that, at this price point, the records should've been in their own white anti-static sleeves. The records caused some minor splitting on my inner sleeves during shipment.
