Hey all,
Longtime fan, been on the forum ages but never post.
Sorry if this has been asked already before, but what exactly is new to CD that hasn't been on CD before with these remasters?
Thanks!

- Sub-culture (John Robie 12" mix)
- Dub-vulture (12" version)
- True Faith (True dub) - the Tall Paul 94 mix, not the Pettibone one.
- Run 2 (12" version)
- MTO (Minus mix) - labeled as simply "MTO"
- EDIT: and of course The Perfect Kiss 12" as Nick mentioned below.
That's all.
All other tracks from the five 2xCD reissues have been on other CD releases previously.
In most cases they sound better on the older CDs.
And "The Perfect Kiss" (full 12" version)... :)
Although it does have the rice crispies effect... :p

I thought this turned out to be the same one from Substance? It's not the full-length mix, it's an edit.

The Low-life bonus disc has the full John Robie Sub-culture 12" and as Nick said TPK 12" which I forgot about (because I've barely listened to it). So first time on CD for those two. Or more accurately, first time from a dodgy vinyl source via a record company's turntable to CD for those two.
As Mr Discog says Shellshock is still the Substance edit although I'm not sure we strictly needed the full 9 and half minutes of Robie massacring the band's sound for that one!
Shellshock's my favourite New Order song - but I actually prefer the Substance edit! The 12" mix just wanders on too long at the end.
Doesn't mean I don't want it on CD though!
"Vanishing Point" (Instrumental Mix), which is on the "Technique" 2nd disc, hasn't ever been on CD before as far I am aware. Also, the mix of "Round And Round" that is on the 2nd disc, I haven't heard before, but don't know what the mix is actually called though. Shame that "The Happy One" was left off though.
Also, it's a shame that the 7" version of "True Faith" isn't on the "Brotherhood" 2nd disc too. Has that ever been on CD before? On both "Substance" & "Singles" it's the full 5-minute version & "The Best Of..." has the '94 remix of it on it.

Yes it was - it was on the Round And Round CD single

I think the closest thing to it is the edited version on the '94 CD single.

"Round & Round (Twelve Inch Mix)" (as remixed by Ben Grosse) and on the "Round & Remix" 3" CD single...
Since it's already on CD, it's a shame that the bonus disc version crackles so much...

It's on the UK CDV single, although it's pretty rare (i.e. not general release)...
It might also be on the US Promo CD single, but that's even rarer (i.e. I don't have it)! :p

No, that's a different mix. There are two, similarly titled mixes of Round & Round that are both 6:50 in length, just to confuse matters.
The one on CD2 of the remastered Technique is 'Round & Round (12 Inch)', from the UK 1989 CD single FACD293, which is called the 'Extended Mix' on the Canadian CD single and is a longer version of the re-recorded single version mixed by Stephen Hague.
'Round & Round (12 Inch Mix)' is the Ben Grosse, clubbier sounding mix on the 3" UK CD single FACD293R

True, it's the bog-standard Stephen Hague Mix - why oh why did they call them similar names/same track length?? :p
Oh, the discogs.com entry seems to be wrong - Kevin Saunderson also didn't mix the one on the remaster!
