Very noisy mass....rustle, sand. But, on the whole, a wonderful record. The bass is wonderful! I still recommend it! -
Edited 2 years agothe sound of the initial/original vinyl from 1992 was completely killed on this "remaster" - wondering what's the idea behind it ... -
-
The legend goes the original recordings (recorded on cassette) we're damaged by his cat. I think this pressing does good justice. Deep bass, high treble on Xtal. -
This sounds really good on 140g records, I honestly find 180g have a tendency to attract dust, but these don't at all. -
Fuck off, klimek. Stop trying to shill your original pressing to fetch more money for it.
In other words, this sounds great. Great balance and great clarity. Would buy again and again for the sound on Xtal alone. -
What an excellent sounding pressing! Crisp, clear and full - wonderful balance between the highs and lows with so much clarity. Very happy with it and would definitely recommend. No need to pay the crazy prices for older copies...

Edited 4 years agoI really do not know which pressing i have in my collection. It is so difficult if not impossible to tell apart the 2013 and 2018 pressings. The mint marks on my copy are etched and almost impossible to read. Regardless of that I am very happy with this my discs. The sound quality is superb given what the source material is ( is it DAT or audio cassette tape or both ? ). The tracks themselves will never sound outdated or obsolete. They are timeless classics that I could listen to again and again. All the tracks are excellent and this a must own release for every true electronics music aficionado out there. [ Playing this using an Ortofon 2M Black cartridge. ]

I have a different variant on all sides. I do have the etched MPO & Matt At Alchemy. Mine is also stamped with the MPO logo and runout etched on side 1 is 19 146777. How many variants are there? None of the sides of mine are listed in the identifiers above. -
