New Wave Outpost Forum

New Wave Outpost- Hunters, Collectors & Contributors (Thank You In Advance !!) (Discogs shows Pics & info)

What I'm after is from 3 Aussie Bands. Albums, EP's & 12 inch Remixes (Extended Versions). A Few (Bare with Me)....(If anything just the Mixes/remixes will be fine unless people have some of these, thanks again !!)

Models - Melbourne CD (Live, Unreleased & B-Sides), 12" Mixes for Out Of Mind Out Of Sight (Nnix Mmix)(never released In Australia and not on the reissue),
God Bless America (12″ Version) , & Let's Kiss 12" Mixes.

Mental As Anything - CD Albums - Get Wet, Espresso Bongo, Liar Liar Pants On Fire, Garage, & tents Up. 12" Vinyl Mixes or CD Maxi's - Big Wheel (Extended Mix), He’s Just No Good For You (Extended Mix) &, Apocalypso (Wiping The Smile Off Santa’s Face) (Extended Mix).

Now I do have "Live It Up" & "You're So Strong" (Mixes) .

Mondo Rock - "The Modern Bop" (Aussie 12" Remix), & Good Advice & Primitive Love Rites (Extended Version) with the B-side (Forget the song) it also is an extended version (Australian pressing 12").

Not sure what happened to the Models 'Magnetic' box set that was announced back in 2013 (I think). It was delayed so that they could add some additional material, but I haven't heard anything since. I would have thought that it would cover most of the stuff that you list here.

Nonetheless, I should be able to help with some of the Models stuff, but will need to transfer it from vinyl - so it might take me a little while (and I can't guarantee how good a job I'll do!)

Incidentally, I think, from memory, the Aussie 12" Nnix Mmix of 'Out of Mind' is the same as the bonus 12" mix that is listed on the Australian CD - not sure if the overseas mixes were any different.

Hey there - micmij (thanks for taking the time if you have any of the stuff I posted, appreciate it!)

Really, the only thing I heard that they had done with the reformation of remaining members (plus additional ?) was the -Models GTK (EP) in 2014. Had no idea about the magnetic box set if that is what it is called, amazing and that would be cool to buy (maybe expensive, but hey it'll be worth it) as well.

Good question, because I read somewhere that was a rare Australian remix not released in Australia. The mix (I may be confusing myself) was supposed to be different than the bonus stuff on the cassette version from the U.S. I also believe that the remix was different from the U.S. 12 inch as well but I think this mix is longer and the other was about 5:54. Either way I'm sure something will be different.

Cool and thanks for responding !!

OK, I've managed to grab the extended version (6:23) of Out Of Mind, Out Of Sight from the Australian CD (it's in FLAC, let me know if you'd prefer MP3) - https://mega.nz/#!9R9BlJSQ!QwvNPyYtH_BM ... QidLdO_B_4

Also, here's an interview where the box set is discussed - http://www.messandnoise.com/icons/4632558

I've definitely got the God Bless America 12" handy, and will try to rip that soon. I don't think I have the Melbourne CD or Let's Kiss 12" (although, I would have some other 12s...)

I'd be interested to know if this 12" is different to the US cassette version. Back in the day, I always assumed that the tracks released internationally were the same as here in Australia, but thanks (?!?!) to Discogs I'm slowly finding out that that's not always the case. It looks like the following tracks were remixed from the original Australian release for the US LP:
* Big On Love
* King Of Kings
* I Hear Motion (which additionally replaced Seeing Is Believing)
* Barbados

Hey micmij, thanks for you time and effort for doing this. I may have the out of mind mix but either way FLAC or MP3 320 will do. God bless America 12" is one that I do not have and when you get around to sharing your ripped version it will be a gem, thanks for that as well!

Lately , I've been re-doing most of my recordings in FLAC as some people (Torrentz - KAT & more crowd) prefer my rips in FLAC. Then someone referred me to this Outpost. Appreciate the referral to the N.W.O. , when I have more info will thank him for that. So lately Most of my rips except the Pseudo Echo vinyl compilation I posted a day ago or so in MP3 and that was done a while ago, just zipping through getting versions on CD that are not released or not put on re-issues. Then again, anything that is not too expensive to buy and out of print.

Now joined on here I'll try and help others if I have it or anything you may need unless you are all caught up with stuff, that's cool too. Have a few other bands and mixes I'm after so will post soon like - Pete Shelley's Blue Eyes 12" extended mix and maybe a couple others , have to check what I have. Plus a few other groups.

Thanks again !! There have been some rare music requests on here that I have not seen in a while. Then again some that I haven't heard of at all.

Just read the article on The Models about the Magnetic Box Set, thanks for that link! Wouldn't mind getting a hold of that GTK-EP.

Thank you for the "Out of Mind, Out of Sight" 12" in FLAC!

Finally got around to ripping the Models "God Bless America" 12" in FLAC - https://mega.co.nz/#!9UNjDTZQ!UqAQSuhvz ... WfqKwz9kPk

I haven't performed any additional processing to remove surface noise, if anyone is interested in doing that I can pass on a 24bit file.

micmij,

Much Appreciated for this, as I last week posted about 11 of my Pseudo Echo 12" Imports and U.S. Promo's. It can be time consuming and yet rewarding at the same time. Now I have them on file (Handy!).

If you can post the 24 Bit Project File. see if it makes any difference, thanks I would appreciate that!!.

Maybe others if they care to, to use their expertise and come up with a better version (Who Knows???).

Like some I read somewhere on here people can get pretty anal (I believe the word was) about ripping vinyl. I just stick to the one program as it seems to do the job for me (Others have commented that it sounded good).

Cool Deal, thanks!!
