Cubism CD?
Hi all!
In the latest issue of "Literally," it states that there will be a soundtrack CD issued with the "Cubism" DVD as the PSB were pleased with the soundtrack. Because I live in North America and a NTSC region 1 DVD hasn't been issued, I haven't bought the package. Was a CD indeed issued with the DVD (most retailers state it's a two disc affair)? If so, what was the CD tracklist (as I'm sure they couldn't fit the whole soundtrack on an 80 minute CD)?

Really? What a pity!canveyboy wrote:There is no CD. This idea was obviously cancelled.
No, some of us need one more reason to buy second copy of this DVD, more prior than different outersleeve.canveyboy wrote:All you have to do is rip the dvd using something like DVD Audio Extractor and you then have the soundtrack in MP3 format anyway so we dont really need a CD!
"I think it’s an amazingly good album, I’ve got to be honest with you. It’s one of the albums I feel most proud of. But for people who don’t really know us, and have a sort of an idea about us, ‘Electric’ is more what the Pet Shop Boys are meant to be."

In the US these days, any live music DVD comes out as a CD/DVD and usually comes packaged like a cd so it throws you off a bit, it just has two discs inside.
The cd will have some songs from the DVD and the DVD has the whole concert. Not like its bonus material or anything.
When I was in the US, I remember seeing a lot of DVD's like that.

I don't know to whom I should trust now

Literally notes that N&C liked the mix of the concert so much they decided to include a CD with the DVD.
There is NO indication that this was a US exclusive, nor does it indicate where this CD edition would be available. So we can assume it was to be the standard release. And since the UK/Euro version does not include a CD we can further assume this plan was canceled for whatever reason.
So: No bonus CD.

Oh yes, I read this yesterevening (thanks to a kindhearted girl who helped me get it!). Only time can tell - don't say "No" now, without official denial (don't count this as it).
By the way, when this issue was written?

I quite liked the mix of the concert as well. As with all the live DVDs I buy, I record them in real time using Audio Hijack Pro (Mac) which rips the audio stream to a high-quality mp3 file (usually a fairly high bitrate). Of course, you can eq the sound to your liking as the DVD is playing, and with Cubism I bumped up the bass just slightly.
Then, the mp3 is converted to the ATRAC3+ format so I can listen on either my Sony HD5 or my MZ-RH1 minidisc with decent headphones (Shure E4c). Pure audio bliss, in my opinion!
Anyway, more info that you all probably wanted to know!
