Probably just a (transparent blue!) re-press of FAC 329 (?) - but doesn't list the actual remixes, just TBC. Maybe they'll include all of the mixes from FACD 329. Maybe a new one (wishful).

Well NO have posted about it on Twitter and FB. Opening up the larger image from FB (and zooming in) we see a tracklist on the label of:

1 Pascal Mix 12" 5:16 2 OT Mix 3:37 3 The Almond Slice Mix 4:26

They seem to have it as FAC 329 A, and Factory Communications printed on the label (if it's real, it may be a mock-up).

It's not clear how those tracks are split on the two sides of vinyl, or if they're all on one side.

EDIT: Stephen has replied to a tweet saying: it's 3 tracks on one side and 2 on the other. So we know the 3 tracks on one side, as above. The remaining 2 tracks are, I suspect: Pascal Mix (short version) OT Mix 12"

Well thanks for posting. Sory to hear you didn't like it. Shall we embed it? I think yes.

I like the way Gurnsey has de-cluttered the track and moved the synth bass forward in the mix. That synth bass reminds me of something - besides the orginal - but I can't quite put my finger on what exactly. I'm generally not a fan of stutttered or chopped up vocals. At the risk of sounding fussy, I like some of the stuttered vox here but not the bit where "about" gets stuttered and messed around - at 4:51 and 4:59 and 5:06 and 5:14 for example. The snare/clap feels a little dated perhaps for a 2024 remix. Although you could argue that there's no point in trying to make an early 90s track sound completely "2024". Overall I quite like it. Definitely got to the end, and will play again.

I think it's alright. It seems fairly typical of what I've heard from him as he's not really a "pop" remixer.

I quite like this mix, actually.

Has anyone acquired it digitally or ripped it lossless?

Here's a rip I did from vinyl the first time I played it. It's completely clean, with no pops or crackles.

It includes WAV, AAC, and a hi-res scan of the artwork, which is subtly different than the original 1991 sleeve.

[hi] I got a copy today from Slow Boat Records in Wellington, New Zealand.

I wonder how many of them made it downer under.

For those interested, the Gabe Gurnsey Remix has been officially released in digital form:

https://www.qobuz.com/gb-en/album/tasty-fish-the-other-two/o8wc97pktsaga https://www.junodownload.com/products/the-other-two-tasty-fish-gabe-gurnsey-remix/6630985-02/ https://uk.7digital.com/artist/the-other-two/release/tasty-fish-gabe-gurnsey-remix-41557384

Or if you have a streaming subscription it's probably already available in your app.

A shame they didn't reissue the entire EP in digital, but you can't have everything...

Arrived surprisingly intact. Could you please rip the O.T.Mix 7"? Never heard that one.
