Stupid remixes?

#1 Post by davee »

It has been announced that there will be remixes of Stupid from various people, but none of these remixes will be on the UK CD or DVD (if the track listings are to be believed).

One of them is listed on CD2 of the album release (Fundamentalism). So how is one supposed to obtain them/listen to the others?

Well that's a bit crap, isn't it? Via download from where? I don't want any DRM-encumbered tracks...

bizarre that the 12" promos haven't shown up anywhere considering the singles release is about a fortnight away :?
Still waiting to hear the Adam Freeland, Manhattan Clique and Axwell mixes of Integral.

I'm a little annoyed about the way record companies spread tracks over different formats to gain more revenue from fans that want to but it all.

What happened to the US Maxi Single with all the mixes?? They were great.

The official site says:

"The various dance mixes of "I'm with Stupid" will be available for purchase on digital download stores. We will give the details here once we have them from EMI. British chart rules only allow for three CD or vinyl formats to be released. "

Do british chart rules prohibit remixes included on the regular single cd as well? What a lame excuse to make us pay extra :-(

That`s what i also thought.If only three format count towards the charts why can`t one of the formats be a maxi CD with the mixes.

Because they live in the dark ages and release a 7" instead. At list it will be picture disc so that we have something to hang on our wall.

With the next single we get a special shellac disc release. So everybody could buy a Grammophone player. Or what about a limited record made out of stone and release it through a new PSB Label called Flintstone Records.
