I'm not sure of my reasoning for buying this. I'm thinking that I might have bought it for the BM1988 Dub, which I possibly didn't have at the time (I got it later, after having bought both the 12" promo and the CDV).

Yes I have that BM Qwest 12” with TBTHOG and TBTHOD on the b side as well. But, isn’t Blue Monday 1988 Dub just the same as Beach Buggy? Haven’t played it in years but might have to dig it out if there’s a difference

It’s different. Beach Buggy 12” is 6:52, whilst the Dub is 7:18. Both were included on the Recycle Project.

The Dub is the same as the DJ Only Mix on here:

https://www.discogs.com/NewOrder-Blue-Monday-1988/release/1280703

And is also on the CDV:

https://www.discogs.com/NewOrder-Blue-Monday-1988/release/882345

^ Oh, right! I’ll have to dig it out then and compare with Beach Buggy. Not sure I was aware of that.Thanks for info , p and Mr Disco

Giving it a spin now

Ok, compared Blue Monday 1988 Dub and Beach Buggy. Yeah there’s quite a few differences isn’t there. Seems to be a lot more of the mad man going on about “ ah boy this is too much” and “ look at them! Look at them!” and other stuff on the dub. Beach Buggy samples the 1234 from Hurt and WWWRL from Confusion 1987 which the dub doesn’t. Interesting! They’re quite different.

here are some other odds and ends i compiled for the recycle 2 boxset project:

let's go, was not really a single, basically a promo..

much later, they added vocals to it, and put it on the best of in the US. in the UK it was a b-side track to the limited UK single of 1963 re-release.

but during that time, they came out with tracks from salvation:

Was never a big fan of BM 88 and only bought that Qwest 12” for the collecting. I probably played Blue Monday 1988 Dub just once, years ago and never revisited it since, so hence ended up thinking it was Beach Buggy by another name. Interesting the things you discover or rediscover from this forum

The ‘Salvation Demos’ include another (shorter) version of ‘Salvation Theme’ (sometimes wrongly listed as being ‘Sputnik’). It doesn’t look like you have that one listed.

What I have is as follows:

Salvation Theme (Demo 1) 4:46 Touched By The Hand Of God (Demo) 5:08 Let’s Go (Demo) 3:31 *** Salvation Theme (Demo 2) 1:51 (sometimes erroneously listed as ‘Sputnik’ (Demo) Skullcrusher (Demo) 3:49

*** This is a vocal demo of the ‘Nothing For Me’ version (I.e. not the older ‘Waiting For So Long’ vocal demo)

They're different remixers for a start, Beach Buggy is a Michael Johnson remix, the Dub is one of the John Potoker/Quincy Jones remixes.

Found my copy of the BM1988 US 12". Couldn't find the promo CD with the dub anywhere. Don't own the CDV.

Some other oddities, I suppose?

I believe the BLT remix on the 12" of this compilation was different in some way? Maybe longer?

And the there's Vietnam...

Fotz wrote: On the Salvation album, apart from the New Order tracks and the two Cabaret Voltaire tracks the rest of the music is possibly the worst music I’ve ever heard in my life. Utter garbage. As is the film from what I remember, I think I found it on YouTube once and tried to watch it and got maybe halfway through and just had enough.

Thanks to a member on these forums, I was finally able to see the film 2-3 years ago. It is as bad as everyone says. Avoid!

I'm grateful to the user that helped me out though. At least I can say I've seen it.

By the way, I've often thought that, at least at one stage, 'Salvation Theme' and 'Sputnik' were different parts of the same piece of longer music (similar to the 'Peter Saville Soundtrack'). If I remember correctly, if you watch the film, certain bits of the soundtrack itself seems to contain elements of both tracks.

I reckon that, at some point, the band (or even the film makers / record label) chopped it into pieces and called it by two separate names. Maybe to pad out the soundtrack; make it look like the band had recorded more pieces for the film.

As possible evidence of this theory, on those 'Salvation Demos' that have been doing the rounds for years, one of the two versions of 'Salvation Theme' on them was actually labelled up as 'Sputnik'. That could possibly denote that the two pieces may have been edited from a longer piece, or that they had interchangeable names. Could just be mislabelling though, as well, I guess.

I may be completely wrong here though. Just pure (and fun!) speculation on my part.

I've seen a clip of the film somewhere with 'Let's Go' in the background and it's different to what's on the 'Salvation' soundtrack and any of the other released versions. Sounds a bit more synthy. Hope it gets released as part of the 'Low-life' definitive edition.

Other exclusive versions/edits from soundtracks

Not sure if the "original"(?) version of Shellshock, with the extra verse, was released somewhere else.

This soundtrack features an official edit of Pettibone's The Morning Sun remix, different from the one on the promo CD and CDV, which got botched on the chorus. It can also be found here: https://www.discogs.com/Various-The-Best-Ever-Indie/release/7168650

20 years on, and I still find it hard to believe Someone Like You wasn't the (obvious) first single. Crystal is great and did really well, but I love this track.

Looks like it's contained within this clip here on YouTube from 1:27 onwards. Sounds like the Salvation soundtrack CD version but with a more prominent synth bass. Could be the same mix but EQd or compressed a bit. Or a different mix. Tricky to tell.

Never a big fan of BM 88 either, certainly after the scorching original on Spunkstance, but the video's cool. They even got Gillian to move a muscle. There was also a DMC mix which was similar to Bitch Bugger 12", from The Remix boot I keep going on about.

Are okay, thanks. My fault for not reading the credits more closely. But as I said I’m not a big fan of BM 88 so really didn’t bother before

I love that version of 'Shellshock' from the 'Pretty In Pink' soundtrack. It's easily my favourite version. It strikes a nice balance between having the 'bonus verse' that was eliminated from the 7" and 'Substance' edit, but isn't anywhere near as repetitive as the full 12" version.

As well as the three exclusive mixes on the soundtracks mentioned above (Pretty In Pink, Married To The Mob, Salvation!, Bright Lights, Big City), there's also:

'Temptation' 3:30 (from 'Something Wild')

https://www.discogs.com/Various-Something-Wild-Music-From-The-Motion-Picture-Soundtrack/release/13927074

'Blue Monday-95' (Hardfloor Mix) 4:45 (from 'The Lakes')

https://www.discogs.com/Various-The-Lakes/release/6158976

'Bizarre Love Triangle' 3:25 (from 'Threesome')

https://www.discogs.com/Various-Threesome-Music-From-The-Motion-Picture/release/2871665

I think the latter one (BLT) isn't actually exclusive, but is just a rare mix. If I recall correctly, it also appeared on a BLT Us 12" promo:

https://www.discogs.com/New-Order-Bizarre-Love-Triangle/release/349673

Can anyone confirm if these are the same mixes (i.e. that 7" edit and the 'Threesome' version)? I have the latter but not the former, so can't check.

Another soundtrack of note, which doesn't contain an exclusive remix, but is still fairly interesting:

'Murder' (from 'Empire State')

https://www.discogs.com/Various-Empire-State-Original-Soundtrack-Recording/release/7859354

Yep. There's also another exclusive edit of the 1987 version on this:

https://www.discogs.com/Various-The-Indie-Scene-82/release/445081

It's not just an early fade, as it appears to start and end around about the same place. It must be shorter in the middle somewhere, although I've never checked where.

The Japanese Music Complete box. Does that fall in the oddities class? Either way all my attempts to tie it back up in a correct and impressive manner have always met with failure . Set me back around £70 a few years ago .Took about 3 months between purchasing and delivery.

It took like six months to arrive here. Plus 100% in taxes/fees.

The Music Complete era has its own oddities, like the picture 7" of People on the High Line, featuring an exclusive mix, and a few digital ones like the full instrumental album, Restless + Tutti Frutti instrumental remixes and the Weatherall dub for Restless, unreleased anywhere to my knowledge. Not to mention the radio edits.

Somehow I managed to get the instrumentals, but it isn't even listed on Discogs. I only found this one with the extended instrumentals, which I've never heard about: https://www.discogs.com/pt\_BR/New-Order-Complete-Music-Extended-Instrumentals/release/9966702

It was discussed years ago in this thread: http://forums.neworderonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=3077

In addition, the Extended Bonus mix of Restless from the japanese CD appears to differ from all other 12"s released

Yes I have that People On The Highline picture disc 7”. That also took a while, though think that was manufacturing issues.Also have the MC CD singles card slipcase ( and the complete set of the CD singles to go in it) and the Deluxe box with the album on vinyl and 12” discs with the extended mixes.

Oh and digital files of the Weatherall dub of Restless , Radio edits of all the album tracks and Tutti Frutti STEMS ( didn’t bother with the Academic one)

They also sold an uncut version: https://www.discogs.com/pt\_BR/New-Order-People-On-The-High-Line/release/9729490

Oh ok, wasn’t aware of that one.

I have that version of Restless that appeared on the Japanese edition CD. Can’t recall how it differs so I’ll have to dig it out sometime

It's shorter and has some different drum breaks in the middle.

The japanese mix is uncredited, maybe done by New Order themselves (Morris)?
