808 State REISSUES

Rodders · Post by **Rodders** » 09 Apr 2005 11:35

all 3 tracks from the cubik remixes 12" - one of my favourites. also, do any other mixes of 'the fat shadow' exist besides the pointy head mix? if so, lets hear them!

how about the newer mixes of Pacific, Cobra Bora, Donkey Doctor, In Yer Face (the versions that get played live)

I would like to see all the Pacific Mixes on a double or triple disc set or however many discs it takes to get them all on. Plus samples for remixing.

It would be kind of like Progeny that The Shamen released but in a Box set anthology of Pacific mixes. Or an Anthology box set of all the ZTT years. Erasure released i think about 4 box sets of their singles. My mate is an Erasure fan, not me. Honest. Well they are ok but i dont collect their stuff.

So i am sure 808 can do better than that. How about it Graham? The 808 State Anthology Box set?

Or how about that early version of Voodoo Ray as mentioned from the Prebuild liner notes or mabye more early BBC material .

All I REALLY want is a live album, there must be loads of live tracks hanging around even if they're not from the same session or performance, could some live versions be incorporated into it.

This is as well as the full live album/DVD which Im sure we'll see in a couple of years, how about the spanish one off here.

I would definately love to see on a bonus CD:

Pacific 909
Global state (I love that track - CD quality beats MP3)
In Yer Face - Vigo Spain version without PA
Celestine
Cobra Call the cops
And any new material or unreleased material!!!!

Also a Live CD would be great of selected good track performances rather than one solid set.

To be included as well:
Minton
Variations on te deum
In your face facially yours
Mondonet
Baton Rouge
Freak both mixes
Ooops - Mellow birds

Any chance of a demo version of Balboa or remixes of tracks never mixed??

Plus a new mix of in yer face (a radical mix!??)

Cant wait for it + 808 might win the hearts of non 808 fans again!

Got to have Pacific 909 as a b-side to 90, also why can't Quadrastate feature as the 2nd disc material to 90? Utd State 90 features the Quadrastate tracks in different guises, so it would be nice to see it as a 2nd disc. (Unless hopes are still harboured for a full release?)

Any bonus material would be nice, and the Vinyl only stuff (Insane Lover/Freak and vinyl only mixes) should feature, however it would be great to see at least one new track feature on the 2nd discs as an extra bonus to us loyal fans!

This sounds like a fantastic opportunity to get a new fan base interested in the band, whilst refreshing what has been an amazing career, so it needs to be done absolutely right.

I think Quadrastate deserve an isolated release. And it should have bonus material as well.

Will State2State vol 1 be remastered? It should.

all the best
Pete (saving money)

Heres another idea - what about a mix CD of 808 material (not necessarily the chart hits with perhaps a few new mixes thrown in).

I would prefere new or unheard material over this - but if its an extra then it would be great.

Im sure Daz and Andy wouldnt have any trouble with this, or perhaps all three of the 808 team mixing.

This could even be a release in its own right!

Like Nick I would also like to see Moses remix included. But I would like to see a proper remix - not like the Tommy boy promo which just seems to be a different Eq, If I remember rightly 808 did not produce it as a remix.

It would help get over the semi dissapointment after spending years tracking it down. Although still glad Ive got it because it is a bit different and a good track!

BADGERMAN · Post by **BADGERMAN** » 24 Apr 2005 15:09

Heres my ideas for the bonus Cds:

808 90 use the track listing for UTD 90 but with Cubik substituted by Call the cops mix of cobra bora.

Bonus Cd:
Fat Shadow - long edit
Dance yourself to Death - Bassless version (fantastic track) - DYTD could be included on the main album as it would fit in well.
Anacodia - 90 mix
Pacific 909
Cobrabora live 94 (as featured on the site but in Cd quality)
State ritual - freak beats mix or new remix
Tomix mix of Cubik
Bitches live
Pacific live - or pacific new remix
The only rhym that bites vocal or the 7 inch instumental
Tunes splits the atom-Creamomattic
And any other tracks from around that time or new mixes of 90 tracks.

Excel cd version same as UK version
Bonus CD:

Olympic - Eurobass
Cubik - Pan American (these two for people new to 808 - a must have)
IYF - Facially yours mix (only Jap CD)
IYF - live version (Vigo Spain version has no PA over it) or a studio recording of it
Ooops - Mellow birds and Utlzula head mix
Sanfransisco - new remix
Cubic - Lambrusco cowboy mix
Tecnobell and spanish heart - new remixes would be great
Open your mind - fon mix

Perhaps open yourmind (open mix) could fit on to the Excel CD - is there enough space?

BADGERMAN · Post by **BADGERMAN** » 24 Apr 2005 15:27

Gorgeous Cd perhaps changed a bit - a chance to stop people biching about an album that wasnt all that bad!:

Could change 10 X 10 for 10X10 black eye mix (its a chunky tune!) and perhaps new remixes of: timebomb, sexy dancer and sexy sythesizer.

Bonus CD:

One in ten Forceable labotomy
Moses - a new "proper remix"
La Luz one or both mixes
Freak both mixes (definately)
Insane Lover - both mixes
Lemon - Gorgeous version or state to state version
Timebomb new remix or the promo mix
Plan 9 - Viny version or remix
Olympic 94
Nimbus - new remix
Reaper pepo - perhaps a new version or the long vinyl version (not a lover of this track - not many I dont like)

Stratta cirus Cd quality

BADGERMAN · Post by **BADGERMAN** » 24 Apr 2005 15:36

Don Solairas Cd same as UK release

Bonus CD:

Balboa Thrme kings mix/new remix/rough demo version (love this track)
Global State - CD quality
Fajhita
Baton Rouge
Lopez - no regreats (full version not edit)
Minton
Saxasalt
Fuzz nasty - Vigo live version
Batong Bridge
Crash
Oasis??

BADGERMAN · Post by **BADGERMAN** » 24 Apr 2005 15:40

Or any other new/unheard or live material would be fantastic.

plus forgot some tracks like mondonet, cellestine and spanish marching

Quadra state - release with let yourself go deepvil quadra state remixes and hitsqadMCR??

Would love to hear new mixes of In yer face, Ooops remix styl, pacific, cubik, balboa and DYTD - but any new takes on tracks would be fantastic!!

Sorry about the rushed list - spelling prob a bit bad, and probably sound a bit sad with my fantasy list - hope some of it happens - it would be great!!!!

BADGERMAN · Post by **BADGERMAN** » 24 Apr 2005 18:56

Also forgot:

Bombadin - Demo version (in my opinion this is far the best version-bit of a journey)

Fear from state to state

Perhaps an 808 remix of invader - I really liked that tune but wasnt impressed with the vegas soul mix - 808 remix would be great.

And any of the Olympic remixes for the word. Ian said he had a version of olympic in his loft which was not used. Is there any chance of getting any or all of the versions on a CD?
