Blurays are a bit of a novelty and the reason to fork out extra might be to collect all the videos. Can't imagine most people popping in a Nonetheless bluray to listen to it.
They want to sell a few more copies to boost first week sales. It’s purely for chart position.

I've always quite liked his tracks...those I've heard anyway, quite hard and tribal..not the circuit house we might expect from a white gay US house act.

Maybe they'll add the videos to the Dreamworld Bluray.

Riiight. Obviously popping an extra video on there wouldn't help sales at all then, doh!

What matters are numbers.If they hit number 4 o 5, but their sales will be bigger than recently = we should be happy,
I've been around the world for a number of reasons. I've seen it all the change of seasons, and I, my lord, may I say nothing?

In the early days of Tribal House weren’t most of its proponents US white and gay? I’m thinking Tenaglia, Peter Rauhofer, Junior Vasquez, specifically. Two of those are of Italian heritage should that be any relevance. I think some of Superchumbo/Tom Stephane remixes are good. The Paninaro remixes he co-did are pretty good for an early effort, I love the New York city boy Uptown mix, Up and Down is great as well. He did a great track called ‘This Beat is’ in the early noughties, had a great time dancing to it in the dance tent at Glastonbury, May have been part of Felix da Housecats set. I think he tends to up his game when remixing PSB, some of his other remixes can be a bit his style on autopilot.
Still waiting to hear the Adam Freeland, Manhattan Clique and Axwell mixes of Integral.

I hope that it's a danceable single and that there are still some on the album.

I think that a Loneliness Remix CD will be released at Easter with the remix Party in the Blitz

If you have a great home theater system set up the music sounds utterly brilliant on the blu-ray. I have a handful of these blu rays.

The thing is they have to look for a song a bit commercial and radio friendly to promote the album in an album which is more reflective. An uptempo song in an album full of ballads.

Neil said there was an expection in the mood of the album with one of the songs or something similar on an interview. "So Hard" was the lead single of Behaviour but the song didn't represent the mood of the album. Something similar could have with the lead single of Nonetheless maybe.

Looks like the video was shoot on a theatre.
