Bell Boy Group: Members Posts: 108 Joined: June 2009 Posted: Mar. 23 2015, 14:03 I would say that Suite 1984 is made up of bit of Killing fields that was not used…..MO said he wrote load of music that was not used….. Interesting !!! Back to top

equinoxe Group: Members Posts: 175 Joined: Aug. 2011 Posted: Mar. 23 2015, 16:13 I'am curious if Discovery will be released together with The Killing Fields as one release (digipak), so we would get 2 remastered album discs + 3rd disc named Suite 1984? So this 3rd disc could contain selected or unpublished tracks from Discovery and TKF mixed in 5.1? I mean the facebook message is not clear enough, because it's not sure, what album this "Suite 1984" concerns - Discovery or TKF or maybe 2 of them mixed together on one disc? It seems, we need to wait for additional informations about the forthcoming releases. Back to top

It must be some sort of hi-tec from the future. Back to top

iwaniuch Group: Members Posts: 19 Joined: Jan. 2013 Posted: Mar. 29 2015, 07:19 Since we're talking about vinyls - any idea where you could get the vinyl of "Incantations" 2011...? It's really difficult to find. Was it so limited...? Back to top

dazzler Group: Members Posts: 103 Joined: June 2009 Posted: April 14 2015, 12:27 I guess they will be released as one package. 2CD + DVD CD1: Discovery with regular bonus tracks (In the Pool, Afghan and I hope also Pictures in the Dark, Legend and the Trap) CD2: The Killing Fields (not much bonus material here) DVD: including 5.1 mixes, promo vids and Suite 1984 The fact that Suite 1984 contains unreleased material from both Discovery and The Killing Fields makes it more likeable to combine both albums in one package. Both albums will be available as a singular 1CD release too. Back to top

Marky Group: Members Posts: 390 Joined: Sep. 2005 Posted: July 01 2015, 18:48 I was hoping Mike would substantially re-mix TKF into a suite of music. Its segmented nature for film prevents it having as much flow as his normal instrumental work, but his creativity on the album is outstanding. We missed a work of genius here. If it were judiciously edited and mixed, we could still have it. Back to top

tarquincat Group: Members Posts: 104 Joined: Aug. 2009 Posted: Aug. 05 2015, 08:43 These releases were "coming soon" on 22nd March, still not even a release date. Mike has obviously finished his bits as he is working on the next ones. Back to top
