How come Nexus is last?! Was it put on iTunes a lot later than the other CDs, or do people just not have a sense of taste at all?!

No disprespect to anyone involved with any of the other productions - I'm after all on that list as well - but it's just that Reyn kind of kicks our collective asses from here to high heaven every day of the week...no ass-kissing intended.

It did get on there very late: plus it's a different audience to the discerning multitudes round here

Where is Instand Remedy now adays, would be cool to hear some new stuff from him

1) INSTANT REMEDY: Instant Remedy

I don't wonder. Instant Remedy album is legendary. Even remix-scene-hatr like me knows and respects it )) Yeah it's a cheap and straigtforward remixing, but that's the point. The album feels like it was done sincerely and without calculation.

[xo]

2) CHRIS ABBOTT: Back in Time

BUUUUH - this list is rigged!!!! I knew it!

ORPHEUS: Crystal Dreamscapes

The eighth is quite cool tho

Last... who cares what sells - everyone has his own taste and knows in his heart what is cool (ok, sellers and artists care (ok, fans care too (ok, forget it right))).

After reading this, I fetched my Instand Remedy CD from the cupboard and am listening to it in the car on my way to work now.

Back then when I bought it and the stakes were still low, it was such an awesome album.

Now, years later, I'm seeing it with different eyes, or rather: hearing it with different ears. In the meantime, there have been much better remixes on RKO, but Instant Remedy is still a very, very great album, very classic! I especially like the Ghosts'n'Goblins version and Comic Bakery.

Shame the PPOT stuff isn't on there, really—I would have bought a few tracks of that.

I gave PPOT the details of CD Baby, but I don't know whether they've done anything about that yet...

We are reluctant to release LRR digitally and we still have plenty of RSRs, so...
