Undertow to be released as next single

[Wish]

According to OS it will be packaged in a pochette.
Any ideas how it will look like?

Probably something like this:

Or even simplier:

I.e., not standart digipack or cardsleeve.

Pochette just means wallet. I'd imagine a variation on a card sleeve cd single either loose or stuck in the cover of Annually.

Thanks to Drem for this

Drem. Whoever the f' that is.

He's a member of this forum. I like whenever possible to acknowledge news that others have brought to our attention...

I've just noticed that the official Pet Text states the 12" vinyl release of Undertow will have FOUR tracks. Presumably the three on the CD but something else too...












The lost room..?

I wouldn't be surprised to find the four remixes on the 12" to be completely different from the CD. As long as it's not an RSD release (please no!) I will probably order the 12" as well, despite my dislike for vinyl. It just really kinda irks me that, as with the last few singles they again stagger the releases of different formats, so we have to pay the crazy shipping prices multiple times if we don't want to risk missing out.

That said: I'm glad they're doing the Annually thing, finally. Oh, and I hope we'll get some more updated versions of tracks. The Super version of Love comes quickly was great as well. Do I sound too greedy?

"Packaged with Annually will be an exclusive three-track CD containing a new mix of “Undertow” by Tuff City Kids, a new “Super” version of “Left to my own devices” produced by Stuart Price and a remix of “Burn” by Baba Stiltz, in a pochette designed by Farrow."

a SUPER remix of Left to my own devices? Hmmmm!

I lost track of what constitutes being a single years ago.

It's like saying an American isn't a human being (can I get away with that? -ed.)

What have I done to deserve this?

Any release like this is (for me) great news. I'll be especially interested in the remixed "Undertow", since many here (including me) hoped for a different mix... and especially a single, even a limited one.

As for Left to my own devices: apparently (as we know) it's a studio mix of the new version they're using on the Super Tour. I really like it, mainly because it's so different and stripped-down. BUT, towards the end they revert to the original version with the orchestra... but with powerful beats. I can't wait!!!

I was assuming that Left to my own devices will be the Super tour "new" version.....

Been listening to Tuff City Kids remixes on Soundcloud this morning...they all sound pretty damn good. Actually I could hear them remixing Burn more than Undertow based on their sound. This Baba Stiltz character though sounds a bit more concerning. Almost everything I've heard on Soundcloud sounds tooooo dubbbbby, down groove, or minimal tech... something that Burn does not need. Oh dear. I've been praying for remixes to Burn and now that we have at least 1, I hope it doesn't fail. Baba's sound is not giving me hope.

I love the recent Tuff City Kids track with Annie

Undertow sleeve is very similar to New Order's Blue Monday 1988
