Red Flag: Naive Art 2CD/LP reissue

[Thefxc2]

I have suggested that and others to Torben. He’s come through with most of my request except Moskwa TV and Microchip League “Code Numbers”.

Did you suggest the THX comp to him? That was a good one. The Voyou as well...

MCL in some form would certainly be on my list, and I think that would sell pretty well in the states. Personally I'd be ecstatic to see Bigod 20 (early singles), SA42, A Split-Second (1st album + singles), and Poesie Noire. (Assuming the Classixx series is an ongoing thing...looks like it's been a year since the last release.)

I dimly recall that they'd planned to reissue Robotiko's Cyper Space album as part of this series...I'm assuming that fell through.

I suggested the Robotiko, Tribantura, Voyou, and Axodry but I am sure Torben already had it in his mind to do them anyways. A little knudging probably helped see it through. Moskwa TV and MCL "Code Numbers" was also suggested but they haven't happened yet. I keep wishing it would though. Basically all the cool Frankfurt stuff. The two tracks from the "Rejekto" 12 inch also need to be on cd. Not sure why those were left off the Robotiko compilation. The THX I did not suggest but it's pretty awesome.

The release has been postponed to January....

The problem with these ("Your Alltime Classixx Collection") is that the music is usually faded out earlier compared to the originals (which are not usually as loud either). The THX one, is missing one song that was included on a comp, and they used vinyl for two or three of the songs. For the Konzept CD they used vinyl for the Hype Mix of "Hypnautic Beats", when there was a better version on "The Official Techno Club Compilation" not taken from vinyl. The same thing with ECO: they used vinyl instead of the CD Single version. The Tribantura "Lack Of Sense" (Razormaid Mix) is missing a beat at the end of the song, I think (I have an mp3 that has an extra beat, that seems legit.) The Brigade Werther one is missing a short song ("Werther Rap") from the single "To Be Continued..." because they didn't like it. But they could have included it as a hidden track at the end. Oh, and I asked him if he could include the "Don't Look At Me" (E-Tron Mix) by Blind Vision alias E-Tron on "Works", but got no response either.

I asked the guy (Toban, I think) on a forum to include the Konzept side project U-Men, as a bonus with the Konzept, but didn't get a response. No prob, I just made my own double CD including all the original versions of the songs found on their CDs + the U-Men single as a bonus. I also made my own ECO 3 CD set that includes all their songs (and non are taken from vinyl either). Later on, I'd like to do the THX one with that missing track (but I'd have to spend several hours fixing the ones only available on vinyl).

That's about it I guess; glad I got that out of my system.

Per Pylon's website, this release has been pushed back to April.

I hope because they are considering a triple CD with ALL the mixes/versions....

Wooow, it's wonderful, for more information check my profile)

Checked in with James at Pylon Records and this release is being delayed again. Warners is working to finalize where these will be pressed.

[musfan]

Is this reissue going to be released? Their website still lists the April 2019 release date.

[Glenn]

I check in with them periodically and checked in within the last week and was told they are waiting for Warners to sort out the pressing plant to get the CDs made. Still planning to be released but no ETA. I mentioned that the April 2019 date is still on the site and they responded that they are aware and will be updating their website soon with some new release(s).

[musfan]

Thank you for the update Glenn.

[Thefxc2]

Yes, thanks indeed for the update. Pylon Records seems to operate in fits and starts; they were on a roll with those great Nitzer Ebb and Xymox reissues but they've been mostly dormant since then. So it's good to know this is still on, although I do wish they'd rethink the track list.
