Pacific State sounds fantastic on the recent Hacienda compilation.

They played some old-skool over the PA before they came on and one of the tracks was Pacific State which was a very crisp and very, very loud surprise! If a re-mastered Pacific State sounds anything like that then it's going to be an excellent CD!
Yes, I remember that (was there Wednesday/Thursday)!

Back to topic, glad to see it's on the release schedules (even if no date has been set yet) - one step closer to a release - yay! 8)

It's good to see things are moving along. How do you mean "the tapes have had to be baked"?

they get a bit gungy over time ,so you have to slow bake them in a low oven to dry them out,this sticks the oxide(the magnetic bit) back to the plastic tape. Dat s are even more prone to deteriation so thats why Vynil still rules,

I was worried it was going to be April 1st. :P :P :P

Six whole months to wait - it'll be well worth it. :D

what will come first, the ZTT re-issues or Quadrastate?

probably could knock out a new album in the mean time!

Yup - it's called Subtracks!

I'm placing my bets on Quadrastate.
