I was at that Hampshire Jam, with a former forum member. I enjoyed that show, but the other forum member left as he found it too dark.

I will order the CD from their website, unfortunately 'Wild 3' is sold out there, and groove.nl. I don't think Steve at SMD stocks Redshift, other than the downloads through MusicZeit.

Any other suggestions?

Sadly no Hampshire Jam this year. I would love to see more shows at the church in Leicester where I saw Free System Projekt a couple years go when they recorded 'British Aisles', (great album and performance).

Still with a young baby, gigs are a bit limited this year.

Yes, this the the Hampshire performance - which I could not get to unfortunately. I have wild 3, but it does not see much playing. This album uses the sequencer far more than of late, and is way better produced than 'Turning Towards' which I find to be recorded somewhat too much 'into the red' (pun and fact).

You will enjoy Colder - it's moved back towards the 70's - 80's stuff.

Interesting interview on the fan site with Mark who states that good recording and playback is vital to the industry, hence the FLAC versions being available from Music Zeit.

Been asked to do a little comparison, prefer the MoFi over the Remaster but not by much.

I have this in vinyl and CD...

Very pleased how well engineered the sound quality is on both formats.

But i've just come to realise some serious violations with the Trades Description act:

This was not recorded live from Mars... but right here on planet Earth, the band are not as advertised proper criminals, and they sure don’t look innocent.

The music however is really excellent so who’s complaining.

11 years ago tonight, I think I was watching Nine Inch Nails at Glastonbury, I would say far better than anything I have seen from this years, but then each to their own.
