Was this mentioned last week?

Always thought the primitive 1970's analogue beeps and clunks were part of their charm. Still prefer the original album versions rather than The Mix.

I'm sorry, but this just sounds like a waste of time and energy, especially re-doing the first three albums.

Strange choice, very strange choice.

How many different remixes / takes are they gonna do? They've only done about 4 original songs, the rest o the songs are just slightly different takes :evil4:

Having only just gotten intae KW (thanks to Jarvo) I am gonna compile my own BEST OF at the weekend hopefully. Can't see the point in this either.

sounds good. a live dvd would be better tho. maybe a now and then type one. having been to see them, and their great visiuals , id just love that.

i dont have all their ab=lbums on cd, so its good news for me! the graphics are great, but seem a little shoddy on the albums.

i like the way the other 2 are now refered to as engineers. i wonder will wolfgang and karl get a say in this re mastering.

going to see kw again (hopefully) in the bennincassim festival in spain in august :)

The original Tour De France is brilliant,anything else worth owning is on The Mix cd.

If I've bought the English and German versions of all their CD's, surely I'll purchase these new releases.

Shit! Are they remastering both languages?

:clap:

Hibster - I prefer most of the versions on The Mix :nod: Downloaded shed loads of KW from Soulseek, some cracking stuff on there, but the stuff Jarvo sent out was better.

:beer: And cheers to DigiMikey Baby for KW at Brixton 91 - can you send me the tracklisting though Mike, I haven't had a chance to listen to it, and I hate tapes sent a la Rocket;)

You haven't lived life until you've listened to The Man-Machine album (preferrably in German). Two words: Spacelab. :D A perfect electronic tale and the blueprint for most of today's dance music.

I personally think Radioactivity is one of the best albuns ever... a huge influence for Joy Division and Bowie, just to name a few.
