PS. What is EP of Dance doing there? Always found that sleeve slobby.

My reissues I've kept wrapped and unopened, so I cannot verify. But could it be, that Fire Cracker is actually missing the beginning on the original issue? The New Order Recycle project found out recently, that what was believed to be a missing beginning of the bassdrum pattern opening of Blue Monda...

Magnificent story Graham. The "what exactly is this" mystery is comming to us all for music not heard in a while. But quite funny when it happens for music you wrote yourself. I actually had semilar experience when I heard Pacific (Acid Brass) the first time on the radio. That long second ...

Speaking of greyarea business. From the mid 90's and onwards a lot of bootleg compilation EP's surfaced. Typically whitelabels compiling 4 club classics thrown together for DJ's to grab. I remember seeing Pacific State on atleast two different such bootlegs offered on Ebay. Unfortunetly I forgot to ...

The "other" thread inspired me to pull the shelves and do a bit of documentation. Apart from Go-Nogo and Specific Hate I've played virtually non of these and don't remember them. Omiting, atleast, PM Dawn, Freemaison and William Ferry Brass Band regarding vinyl/CD releases, here goes... ht...

Had similar Pinnochio-feeling after seeing 24 Hour Party People, which dissapointed me on a couple of other matters.

Are you referring to this one?

Yeah.

Actually I have been very cautious not to listen to any Pacific bootleg remixes. Vinyl bought and put on the shelf. So digital releases isn't that interesting to me.

One of the vinyls has a brilliant remix of Facination by Human League though.

Very.

That scan is my copy. Unfortunetly it lacks the info sheet.

Who was the guy who named Pacific 909 as an all time fave in Muzik a handful of years back? I believe he was a Detroit broke as well.

I'm sure Bjork is thanking Graham on various releases. Note also Headphones being dedicated 'To Graham'.

Which reminds me how great it would be to actually know what was on those unique Massey tapes for Bjork. Let alone having a copy.

A guy on tuneid.com is currently requesting ID for a track that's indeed fueled by Cubik. Is this on 808state.com record?

I wish Martin would step up for these things a bit more,He would have had a good over view. Definitely highly desirable to hear from Martin again and telling about the music scene and the shop say 84-94. Or what about a round table discussion of the four of you plus Gerald under the strict conducti...

I recorded digitally off the netplayer and reencoded to 192 kBit. Wanna have?
