New albums, reissues & compilations to watch in 2015

[negative1]

Yes it is confirmed. As for a wish list i wouldn't know where to start. Actually i could state a Madonna: Singles versions / Edits 3-4 disc set. Agree with The Madness (1988) double edition maybe with some demos and the important missing S on the spine. The 2nd Madness Singles box due due in 2004 would be nice lol but wno't happen. Then i'd go to Kraftwerk single mixes / exteded mixes box set (demos would be incredible like scheduled Tour de France album from 1983). The 2 -3 new live tracks (which i loved) from around 1997/1998 would be amazing i've only waited almost 2 decades for those and have actually given up on it EVER happening now since they failed to appear on TDF Soundtracks. They did promise first two albums remastered also years ago. Then again Kraftwerk should be German for 'Unforfilled promises'. Promising a new album since 2010. The B-52's are also due a proper remaster / rarities set/s. A Thompson Twins DVD / Blu ray of as many videos as possible and BBC performances.

Then loads of 80's stuff which is missing on CD, badly mastered, badly remastered etc.

On the new album front i'd mention Kraftwerk (again), Madness, OMD, Duran Duran, The Prodigy, Tears for fears, Adam Ant, Level 42. Think there's a very good chance on many of them especially Adam Ant, Duran Duran, Madness & The Prodigy.

you might want to post your wish list here, to avoid confusion:

The Kraftwerk ones would be a big ask. They don't seem to like releasing compilations and things like that, even going as far as to produce The Mix to avoid a greatest hits/singles compilation release. I never got into their albums pre-Autobahn but I'd be interested in giving them a shot!

Spandau Ballet's catalogue needs to be remastered again imo. Probably not what should be on a priority list, but maybe in the future. Then give me Madonna's first five albums remastered and expanded, and I'll be happy. But it seems that will never happen.

Yeah i can't be bothered with the big re-issue list i did see that thread. I think i'm right in saying Enigma finally have a new album out in 2015. Hope Tom Bailey of Thompson Twins does too! Even a re-recorded Twins set would be nice with the new lyrics for 'If you were here' included

no date set yet (Spring 2015):
The Wake - "Here Comes Everybody" 2CD Deluxe Edition

[omar]

Would love to see The Wake's album getting reissued. Their current stuff has been badly mastered from vinyl.

Thought I read that Duran Duran was working on a new disc, that sounds like their last one(AYNIN) which I liked.

Peter Murphy-Deep would be an excellent remaster to do IMO, and those Kraftwerk cds would be freakin amazing to get remastered as well, especially the TDF mixes.

[DJ Phoenix]

Also, I don't think anyone here would refer to him as "new wave", but how about Corey Hart reissues?

I've heard an extended of "Never Surrender" that I really enjoyed. I'm sure there are more mixes of that and others, anyone have any info on if there's ever been any reissues before?

Yep, Duran Duran is indeed working on a new album with Mark Ronson (can't wait!). Madness and Tears for Fears are as well, and I think OMD too (one of my all-time favourite bands here!). The Prodigy's new album has been announced (as you probably all know now) and its coming out next month.

ZTT's The Value of Entertainment / ZTT Sampled has finally be reissued on CD+DVD

[Neil Kelly]

Yes, DJ Phoenix, Duran are indeed working on the album as i stated (with Mark Ronson and Nile Rogers producing (no less). Doesn't mean at this point it'll definitely come out this year (could even be shelved although i doubt it) but if i was to take a guess i'd say it will about August! OMD maybe October. All guess work of course. I saw Kraftwerk 3D show 2 nights running in Amsterdam January 2015 and amazingly met Ralf outside. And the 'new' guy (who does visuals much like Florian did). I knew it'll make no difference but i did say please release your new album! Also saw Kraftwerk in Vienna 4 times in 29 hours last year and 5 times in a week in London, 2013. All 'The Catalogue' 3D shows
