No major news…my trip to the Hollywood Virgin Megastore was a bust. They had about 30 copies of Mercury and Solace but that was it. I went up to the counter to inquire about the upcoming release…after a few questions…the guy just stared down the field…lost. Didn’t have a clue. His “Release Date” clipboard listed nothing, gave me a # and a name to call. Hmmm, we’ll see.
So, I went down the street to Tower Records (on Sunset). Again, nothing. They can order Imports, but need a reference # if you need a specific disc…and since there are 2 CD’s coming out, I wasn’t about to take my chances. 0 for 2. Hmmm, that’s 0%, bad news.

Sorry folks, took a day off to recoup from my illness. So I’m back and here is what is on the 2nd CD on the Japanese Import. I know there is at least this - there may be more:
Sunblind (featuring Jan Johnston)
- The Fibonacci Sequence
- These 2 songs will be available as B-sides to the UK and US singles, however, if you’re like me, there’s no way in hell you wanna wait for them, even though you’re gonna end up buying the singles eventually anyway.
Anyone go to Coachella? Anyone confirm the Mercury & Solace 2nd CD5? Anyone get a label # on the Japanese Import? Just a few of my questions.
More Soon…

So I sit here in my office as Coachella goes on, missing it…and disappointed. It’s only 2 hours up the road, but I’m still sick as hell. BT will be in Tent 1 for a 50 minute show this sfternoon, playing an exclusive remix of “Blue Skies”. I guess you could call it the “Coachella Mix” lol. I know I’ll regret not attending.
Anyway, I have been given the “green light” to release the artist who BT recently remixed I talked about a few days ago…Sarah McLachlan. The track, “I Love You”. The mix…“BT Vocal Mix”. No news yet on it’s release.
If anyone knows of a place to pre-order the Japanese MISL import please lemme know. Gemm.com (through my links) offers a few places online, but they’re quite expensive and I have yet to confirm the correct version with the bonus CD.

Well, quick important news. No matter whether if you’re in the US, UK, Japan, Canada, Ukraine, China…this affects you. UK gets a BT release on Oct 25. One CD. Japan gets an unofficial release on OCT 18…2 CD’s. YES THAT’S RIGHT! Bonus CD. CD1 is the same on both releases. I’ll tell you what the bonus tracks are in a day or so. It’s not a marketing scam. UK gets a full 74 mins of CD time. Japan just spends more money I guess. Pre-order it now if you can.
P.S. It gets better

With special thanks to Graeme Simpson, the BT interview from M8 Magazine is available here. Thanks very much to Mr. Simpson for the hard work in OCRing and HTMLing this 4 page article for all of us to see.

Well I have heard that the “ALL GOOD GIRLS” mp3 is a phony, so can anyone tell me who it is? I sure didn’t think it sounded like him, and lord I was praying.
There are a few BT items up on Ebay that I need to plug. Chas has a rare Nocturnal Transmission 12” up there, details on the BT Board or thru the following link, and I have 3 CD5’s up there. Take a lookie and gimme some of your money, lol.

P.S. Coachella is this weekend. BT on Sunday, confirmed.

Well, sorry to have been gone so long, I’ve been sicker than a dog. But I’m back. And I have news to tell. But absolutely foremost, I’d like to shout out to Rollergirl, “Thank you for all your news, corrections, compliments, rumors, etc. But especially thank you for your hot legs.”
Next, The CDR Sampler for Movement in Still Life has been floating around the rare music stores in the UK and has finally arrived at gemm.com. You can get there through the links. The track listing is in the CD discography and all the tracks appear to be edits.
Next, I recieved and MP3 called ALL GOOD GIRLS, apparently by BT, and possibly he on vocals. I know nothing else. Can someone gimme some info on this?
It has been brought to my attention that somehow, someway, the Flash file wasn’t working for some people in order to enter the contest; that it was defaulting to the sounds page. Well it appears that that has been fixed, so ALL of YOU can now see and hear it…if you have the plugins.
And finally, I haven’t been given the green light to release this new BT mix that’s coming out, but I’ve now heard it from 3 different sources, so here is the song title…“I Love You”. That’s all I can give you right now. It’s not as huge as I originally thought, but it’s pretty damn big. Apparently the artist has been after BT for awhile to remix something, nearly a year.
I’ll have more soon, enter the contest, and keep it shakin’.

I received an email…of which I consider quite reliable…stating that very soon…and I mean VERY VERY SOON, there will be a HUGE BT remix coming out. Basically…the BIGGEST BT MIX EVER!!! The statement says just as big as the Sasha and BT Madonna Reemix, yet BT only! Now I don’t know about you, but there are very few artists bigger than Madonna and duos…well, I have always been impressed less with. So! I hope he’s remixing Limp Bizkit! Or Garth Brooks! Or something so ridiculous we all loose oure shorts. Did I spell everything right? lol.
I’m as in the dark as you guys are on this one!
I’m working on a newsgroup so you don’t have to continue returning here for the same ol text.

2 30th Strike Depeche Mode CD’s have arrived on Ebay with the 4th mix of It’s No Good (Brian Transeau Mix). They end soon so bid quickly.
I suppose even though it’s a few hours late…the other 3 mixes popped up on Ebay. I don’t need a new day for that.

Well if you’ve dropped by the Imusic BBS in the last 24 hours you’ve seen the post by BT. In regards to Jan Johnston stuff, he replied saying that she has a CD coming out next year on Perfecto. Included on that album will be the much rumoured about longtime live-only production written by her and BT called Flesh. Kick ass.
Sounds is also updated with a little Lenny Kravitz.

I have been out of town for the last week and just returned. I updated the Discography with some new information including details on a rumored RARE Go CDR.
By popular demand, I have added cover images to the Remix section. I’m still working on it and adding new ones all the time.
I will be uploading a new clip to the Sounds section in the next day or so. Leave a message on the Messageboard if you have a request.
