Title: I'd love the Chems to do reissues like Underworld are doing...
Post by: neorev on Nov 10, 2015, 11:15
Anyone see Underworld's reissues for Dubnobasswithmyheadman and Second Toughest In The Infants???
They are beautiful!
Vinyl-sized reissues that have been fully remastered with multiple discs collecting all of the singles, b-sides, alternate mixes, live recordings from each album era along with unreleased material and a big book of art.
I absolutely love what they did. I own the Japanese version of Dubnobasswithmyheadman for the bonus disc and for being pressed on SHM-CD and will be getting Second Toughest In The Infants when it comes out on November 20th.
I would love for the Chem Bros to do this and to be able to have each album era's material all in one package.

I would buy remaster bundles for sure. It would  be a great opportunity for them to officially compile the Dust Brothers era as well.

Unfortunately, the Brothers typically look forward, not back. And I can respect that.

Yeah, just a few demo track CDs from each era, I would explode.

The Second Thoughest in the Infants remaster is awesome. 4cd's on repeat.  Dubnowbassiwthmyheadman was also great. Those releases are the shit.

One year on and I listen to the Dubno stuff on a near-weekly basis. The demo and live jam CD's, as well as the extra 1 hr mix that they "found", are all just superb.  Still to get STITI - think Santa is bringing that one... - but from what I've heard so far it's going to be a fine Christmas.

And both Underworld and Sigur Ros announced new material and tours on the same day earlier this week!  For Underworld, what a title - "Barbara Barbara we face a shining future" and the blurb makes it look like being a great 2016 as well!   "So what's there in the shining future? The opening punch of a two-note detuned bass riff crunching over relentless percussion; the elegiac swoop of strings as they stretching out across off-world electronics; a demented lupine howl that curls itself into an unshakeable earworm; celestial techno and South American acoustics; voices that warp into harmonic riffs; found lyrics that form fine-tuned monologues; head music to dance to..""

Haven't heard any of it. I find them ridicousely expensive. Maybe I need to go for the double albums instead.
