ok, thanks to 50pound note, and his friends, we had an excellent version of what recycle the box set would have been like.

but what about the rest? the ones that came after world in motion?

it's time to revisit that idea.

i'm slowly working on the listings, and will be posting them on a blog shortly..

basically it will cover these singles:

1 regret 2 ruined in a day 3 world 4 spooky

5 true faith 94 6 1963-94 7 lets go (salvation tracks)

8 blue monday 95 9 video 586 9b brutal 10 true faith 2001

11 crystal 12 60 mph 13 someone like you 14 here to stay 14b world in motion 2002 15 confusion 2002

16 krafty 17 jetstream 18 waiting for the sirens call 19 guilt is a useless emotion 19b hellbent

we will visit each single separately, and see what tracks can go on them.

the following singles won't be represented:

808 state acid house mixes jamx deleon - blue monday 2005 run wild record store day - ceremony

dj mixes crystal competition mixes

some, but not all the tracks from the 12x12 singles.

that will be a separate project.

as an added bonus disc,

20 the peter saville show sountrack will be included.

If you start uploading mass amounts of copyrighted material Warner Music may get a little cross with you.

Not to mention the band and/or their management who are known to actively read these forums.

Most of what you're proposing above is still purchasable or widely available second hand so people can still buy it.

If the New Order Archives who offered obscure live shows was hit with a cease and desist, how long do you really think your public "Recycle 2" will last?

i'm not worried in the least bit.

it's a private blog.

i'm just announcing it here.

no harm in discussing their music.

Assuming you're not planning on uploading any tracks (just discuss fantasy track listings) then even still, why?

There are plenty of New Order Discographies around the web encompassing the London Records-era singles; not to mention Discogs.

If you're planning on actually uploading tracks then... er, see above again.

for the first title from the first set of singles, we look at regret:

regret was the return of new order, with the album republic.

there were several remixes, spread across vinyl and cd.

most of the mixes were on the cd-single.

the sabres slow n low edit was on retro.

all of these are sourced of cd. the japanese republic had the 2 sabres mixes, also there was a french promo cd, that had those also.

the radio edit is exclusive from:

http://www.discogs.com/NewOrder-Regret/release/878375

for the first single we have these:

---------------------------------------------------------1 regret (or 7 inch version)              4:08  v, cd, cs, ld optional -regret (radio edit)             3:50  cd  2 regret (the new order mix)              5:10  v, cd, cs3 regret (fire island mix)                7:15  v, cd, cs4 regret (junior dub mix)                 7:44  v, cd, cs5 regret (sabres slow 'n' low)            12:49  v, cd6 regret (sabres fast 'n' throb)          12:11  v, cd7 regret (sabres slow 'n' low edit)       6:41  cd================================about 52 minutes

What's the criterion? 'True Faith 2001' was not an official remix, was it? 'Video 5.8.6' is not a typical release, more like an archive vault product, that normally is never included (or at least not in this chronological order). There was never 'World in Motion 2002' (rumor of a new remix was circulating at the time, but instead they re-released the 1990 version backed with 'Such a Good Thing').

Another point: why indeed? All that was released in the digital age, on CDs. Sadly, what distinguished the Factory-era output from London was the substance of the material: solid B-sides, smart minimum of remixes. To collect all various remixes after 1993 is entertaining but futile, in my opinion.

yes, according to both:

'Video 5.8.6' is not a typical release, more like an archive vault product, that normally is never included (or at least not in this chronological order).

right on both... however, if we go chronologically, that's when it wss released.

the point of including world in motion, was precisely to include the new b-side song.

i prefer only new order tracks and mixes up to 1987.

everything after this is pretty subpar. however, there's a huge part of their catalog that incorporates these tracks..

and for the sake of completeness, its well worth cataloging them.

i intend on doing a recycle+ compilation, and going back and revisiting all the previous singles, and adding in some extra tracks, and mixes also.

Ruined in a day was the second single:

2 separate cd singles came out.

also, a few more mixes on vinyl (promo), and a few later promo mixes on cd.

there was a new b-side called 'vicious circle', which was an instrumental with one mix on cd, and the other on cassette.

ok, just to clarify some issues.

i've been asked a few questions, so will reply to them here.

  1. what is the goal of this project?

to create a supplemental listing of new order tracks similar to the previously released recycled project

  1. is this for sale?

definitely not. this is a fan based project, made for personal and private, non-public use.

  1. what is the blog for?

the blog is for a more private sharing of the ideas with more freedom than the forum or mailing list

  1. how do i sign up?

pm or email me. once you do that, you can sign up by yourself for an account. or alternatively, i can invite you if you provide an email.

  1. where are all the tracks?

there aren't any yet. if there are, they will be preview versions.

this project has 3 stages) 1- pre-production 2) production 3) final release

we are currently at stage 1

  1. what is the final product?

a listing of the files, and perhaps a playlist, and artwork for anything further consult the blog for updates.

thanks for your participation, or you just want to lurk and observe, feel free to do so.

however, those that participate with ideas, tracks, artwork, will receive the most benefit.

thanks again, and enjoy.

Andy wrote: Quite a lot of time and effort spent on a band whose last quarter century of work you dismiss.

agreed, but still fun to chronicle.

the last good album from them was in 1983 with 'power corruption and lies', although 'low-life' was very good, and 'brotherhood' was ok.

i don't really like their albums, but they have a lot of variety in their mixes.

i listen to a lot of techno, and electronica, so when they have gone down that road, i tend to listen. some of the mixes of 'waiting for the sirens call', such as the planet funk one were very listenable,as were blue monday 95 mixes by hardfloor, and others. there's a handful from here and there that add up to a decent collection.

These are the same thing. UK World timing is incorrect (3:58 is the Perfecto edit). There is another, arguably superior, UK radio edit ("Spike's mix") but it was only used in the video (with added sounds from waves, motorboat, bikes etc). I don't think I've ever heard a "clean" copy of that mix. In an ideal world, that would be on a "Republic" bonus disc if a 2CD release of that ever happens. Or even better, a full length mix. The album version is clearly an edit too.

I don't really see the point, as most of those songs are pretty available (auction, iTunes-type services, etc)..... And it could get you in trouble. I don't make these kinds of rules, but you know, we have to abide by them.

Endlessly cataloging the various edits and remix variations will bloat the project and will turn many people off. The reason the original Recycle was a success was because there were barely any remixes on the earlier singles and even by the time of Technique there were only two or three. It didn't cover every obscure edit or bootleg mix and was all the better for it; it was succinct. Cataloging 25+ remixes of Crystal or 15+ of Jetstream is just a bit dull and OCD really. A further reason the original Recycle was a success was due to the sound on these various CD and vinyl tracks being enhanced; are there any audio specialists working on your Recycle 2?

The point still stands a lot of the material you will be releasing is still available to buy and giving it away en masse for free to "anyone who sends me a PM" will dent the band's income; we're not talking swapping a few FLACs or the odd album under the radar. At least the original Recycle focused mostly on tracks which were long out of print or languishing on dusty Factory vinyl.

not everyone has or uses itunes. i sure haven't seen any of the many promo mixes out there, or am i missing something?

what about the vinyl only tracks? the compilation only ones?

most of these tracks are sourced from cd, so not a lot of work needs to be done to them.

this is a private project, if you're not interested. that's your prerogative.

plenty of people have expressed interest in it. just like they did with the 'interational 2' - 4cd set. quite a few appreciated that also.

maybe the band will come out with something official someday.

we can only hope.

where exactly are we supposed to find these?

where are you looking????? i can't check itunes JAPAN, but i doubt it has very much either.

i checked itunes USA:

Series 1

1 regret - 4 out 7 mixes 2 ruined in a day - 1 out 11 mixes, 0 out of 2 b-sides 3 world - 1 out of 11 mixes 4 spooky - 8 out of 9 mixes

Series 3

8 blue monday 95 - 0 out of 12 mixes 9 video 586 - 0 out of 4 brutal - missing 10 true faith 2001 - 0 out of 9 mixes

Series 4

11 crystal part 1 - 1 out of 13, missing 5 b-sides 12 crystal part 2 - 60 mph - 0 out of 4, missing b-side 13 someone like you - 0 out 8 mixes 14 here to stay - 1 out of 4, missing b-side world in motion 2002 missing 15 confusion 2002 - 0 out of 12 mixes

Series 5

16 krafty - 7 out of 13 mixes 17 jetstream - 8 out of 13 mixes 18 waiting for the sirens call - 0 out of 10 mixes 19 guilt is a useless emotion - 5 out of 13 mixes hellbent - has it

so basically, you can only find 36 out of 180-200 tracks..

thats about 20%.

what a joke.


amazon is a lot worse, only has a few more mixes for 'guilt is a useless emotion', thats its.

and buying 20-25 singles off ebay, is way too much time and effort for most people.

itunes UK is the worst of all, only has the 'spooky' single and best of mixes.


this project is a lot easier to deal with, and have everything conveniently located.

I personally do like remixes, but I have no desire to collect every remix (official or unofficial) that's ever been made. If it's not available digitally, I suppose some might look at auction sites (Ebay etc) or something to find what they want. I know there's a Buy/Trade/Sell section both here and on neworderweb, so fans who have a lot of things can trade or sell some items they want.
