Found by a friend on Facebook yesterday. Do somebody here know this guy? He's a german graphic designer and in his website he affirms that produced the artwork for "Community 2" but the sleeve showed in the portfolio is totally different. Here is it.

He also wrote this:

I thought the first snippet released was Singularity? "guitar driven tune" sounds as if it's describing the second released snippet, surely? But anyway, looking forward to hearing something soon

Nah mate, prior to Singularity there was a very short snippet released on Facebook i.e. 4 snippets in total.

Ah yes, you're quite right.I'd forgotten all about that very first 7 second snippet! Haven't looked it up or listened since that night it was first released as didn't think much of it and it was only 7 seconds.

Why? Does everyone release track 1 from their new album as the first single? News to me.

For 3 out of the last 4 new order albums it has. I'm pretty sure I'll stay with you would have been a single as well if it was released at the time of the recording.

Ahh got it thanks. I did hear it, and you're quite correct. There are 4 clips. I don't know why NO posted about there being 3? I suppose as this one was relatively short compared to an average of around 30 seconds for the others. Now I've heard it again, knowing that it's the intro to Restless, it's got me quite excited looking forward to hearing something next week.

Proper b-sides are becoming something of a rarity since the demise of 7" and CD singles. They tend to end up being bonus tracks on albums, but we can hope. You know there will be at least one remix anyway - The Andrew Weatherall remix I mentioned back on page 1 of this thread.

Ask me no questions I'll tell you no lies. No hang on those aren't the lyrics to Restless.

Oh it's basically the same image as that Facebook screen grab above. 4th September is a bummer if he's right. Originally they said August...

August is the instant grat. I imagine we'll get a single track for the instant grat and then the single with remixes etc on September 4th or whenever it is released.

Just visited the deluxe vinyl set listing on the New Order website store at http://store.neworder.com/ again. Now confirms there will be digital downloads of the extended versions:

"All orders receive Music Complete HD and MP3 digital files on the official release date 25th September. HD and MP3 digital files of the Extended Versions will be available when the box is dispatched. THE ACTUAL BOX SET WILL DISPATCH EARLY NOVEMBER. Instant grat download of first single available in August."

No news on whether 'Restless' will be available as the instant grat track tomorrow - and no mention of its release date or a download link when I login to the store - but hoping for an update tomorrow morning.

My concern is that there is a difference between "will receive" and "will be available". The terminology is somewhat ambiguous. And again release dates are inconclusive. Mute mentioned before that "The digital download will contain the extended mixes that are on the vinyl." I was therefore expecting to receive them on the official album release date. Now they are stating it could in fact be November, although I know they will aim to despatch the box set sooner if available. So will this now be a separate download again and will it be made available free to the people who have ordered the box set or will we be expected to pay for the download also? I wish it was a bit clearer. I'll be quite disappointed if it's the latter.

On the email from them yesterday: 'Stay tuned for details of the forthcoming remix package which will be available on vinyl, CD and digitally on 9 October 2015.'

Looks like the Weatherall remix will be on there at least, hope the rest of the remixers are of a similar standard.

Bernard is interviewed in this months Mojo which features Keith Richards on the cover, anyway, it seems that the track Tutti Frutti is a "grand piano-house yacht-disco style festivity that features an Italian style lothario intoning the title", sounds like it could be a distant relative to Fine Time then.

I bought the issue. Quite an in depth interview - 5 pages.

Talks about :-

Why he didn't cover much about the recording of Brotherhood and Low Life in his book (basically he felt it wasn't interesting to indulge in stories of hours and hours in the studio)

Stuff he covered in the book i.e childhood, growing up in Salford, Ian Curtis and JD

The problems surrounding tense relationships in the band while recording Republic

A little about Hooky but didn't like to say much and felt he said all he wanted to say on the subject is in the book.

Depression from hangovers on tour being the cause of bad gigs in the 80s

Sailing life

Interesting stuff about the recording of Get Ready and struggling at first with Steve Osborne's demands

He did take a "tiny, tiny, tiny " bit of LSD when writing the lyrics to Temptation and how that song and others felt like they were given to to him and the band as a gift (reminiscent of the Melody Maker interview from December 1988 in how he talked about writing songs felt like the songs came down from some greater power from above)

Oh there's loads in there - i could quite easily scan and post the whole thing but i don't want to get into trouble

Bit worried now that the deluxe tracks will be DJ remixes rather than pure extended versions... Hope that's not the case.

Will be interested to see if the album leaks weeks in advance of release. I recall 'acquiring' Waiting For The Sirens Call about 5 weeks ahead of its release. Get the feeling Mute may have tighter reigns though.Miss the old days not hearing a new NO album til official release day though- there was something magic about that which has been lost forever unless you are really really disciplined.Seems like an eternity since Music Complete was announced but still an eternity til 25th September
