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

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.

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, reallyâ€â€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...
