I'm very excited about this, hoping for great things.

I hadn't thought of pre-ordering from the label - it's quite expensive, so I might just wait for the shops now...

These are going to be in stores too. It's on the upcoming list from Forced Exposure so don't think that it's going to disappear immediately.

Aye, I know. It was just a question as to whether I wanted it NOW or to sit back and wait for it to filter through to UK shops. I work in a record shop here in Glasgow, so it will reach us eventually through the UK distributor, but I was musing on whether I could wait that long - the release date is 13th July here.

I like it much....Very intense and varied and sound is very detailed...One of the best among the last collaborations....

I did not know Blast First even still existed...maybe I didnt pay attention, nothing interesting..what's this?    A £20 promo cd featuring Primal Scream and Suicide?   ??  Stupidity.

£11.99 but fuck it, think ill have to order it there.  Cargo Records I first heard the news from, selling at £13.99 if I recall, which is a plain rip off..

(Haino completist)

Well, Blast First Petite direct isn't much cheaper than Cargo, as they charge £11.99 plus £1.75 postage in the UK, which makes it pretty steep for coming direct from the label.

I'm going to wait for it to come through Cargo as a distributor into shops. It was scheduled for 13th July, but I'm not sure if it might have been delayed a wee bit, we shall see.

As I suspected, this has been delayed until 27th July via Cargo in the UK. I don't know about distribution elsewhere.

Good things come to those who wait, hopefully...

Just got a note from Blast First Petite that they've sent the Haino/Panasonic disc. At least I hope it's a cd--there was no indication as to format.

It's OK. I think Haino would have made better beats as rhythm is his strong point. It will suffice until there's more DJ Haino Keiji

Finally got my copy this week, but haven't had a chance to listen to it yet, due to a huge weight of King Crimson on the go... hopefully this weekend...

I like it, although I don't hear too much Pan Sonic after some interesting stuff (particularly on track 2). Then it's back to the usual Haino in excelsis, which is no bad thing. It's beautifully recorded, to my ears, and the cover's lovely too!
Wife hates it--no change there....
