Couldn’t resist. Snagged one.

Reminder: this is again available for purchase during Bandcamp Friday.

Ah... ordering that CD sharpish was totally the right thing to do.

I've been waiting to get information on progress, and received the following about a week ago:

The CDs are expected to start shipping by next month.

Excited to get closer to hearing a CD full of unreleased Nuron.

Almost forgot about this. Glad to hear these are finally about to go out.

good news. completely forgot about this.

Bonus and unreleased nuron!!!  But £40 (plus shipping plus Brexit Fees) feels a little steep. I mean… we’re now pushing £70-£80 for a cd…. 

Almost forgotten I'd even pre-ordered this, crazy it's taking so long. Anyway, just checked on Bandcamp and there's been another update: "Apologies for the delay. Shipping will begin by end of June". There's also a track listing for the bonus CD...

Extra will be a bonus CD of unreleased material from 1993-1996.
CD track list:
1: Nuron - The Coded Message
2: Nuron - Interior World
3: Nuron - Waiting For Nothing
4: Nuron - Another Way
5: Nuron - Neither Here Nor There
6: Fugue - Contrapoint (First version)
7: Nuron - Dialectic Confusion
8: Fugue - Contrapoint (Stasis Mix 2)

Plus 2 new updated remixes of tracks from 1993-1996 as a download. 

And some mockups of the (I assume) final artwork, was expecting something amazing after after all this time.

So did they explain why the 2CDs are costing 50 squid enclosed in what looks like a cardboard sleeve ?!

Remember feeling flush after dropping £25 for Goldie's Timeless back in the day

Christ, I’d forgotten I’d splurged on this.

What a lovely surprise.

purchased this 1 year ago. i wonder if it will ever materialize.

Ok - maybe he saw the post here but he just replied to my email from a couple weeks ago. Looks like it’s coming soon but he needs “a few more weeks”.

The unreleased bonus tracks are a mixed bag, but a mighty fine one at that, absolutely fabulous to hear never before heard classic Nuron/Fugue, although some of them sound really rough compared to the smooth style Nuron's known for. Definitely no regrets for buying the CDs.

You finally got your CDs then @dcom? Not even had a dispatch notification, the long wait has sapped my enthusiasm as well. Does the packaging and design justify the massive wait and price?

No, only digital, still waiting for the physical.

Wait, you can dl them from bandcamp (if you bought the cd)? Perhaps I misremembered, but didn’t he say these tracks wouldn’t be made available digitally? I hope they are…

Yeah, it's a private item so there's not even a release page, download only. Hopefully it'll get a general release with the physical.

OK, so now I'm confused. Just went to Bandcamp. I bought both the digital album and the CD with the extra tracks. In my collection only one version shows. And the download only has the original 11 tracks. Please don't tell me i f-ed up because I've bought two versions of the same album.

You have. What I failed to mention is that I got a Bandcamp yum code for the bonus tracks album, it didn't come with the actual purchase, and is not generally available (at least yet), apologies. I'm sure you'll get a refund for the duplicate if you ask.

Thanks for the update dcom, lucky you on getting the download, who knows what’s actually going on. June has come and gone without a dispatch or update.

It’s all really pissing me off if I’m being honest, really shouldn’t take a year from the initial preorder, and these things were far from cheap.

I got the same response as @Extralife, things are still a couple of weeks away from completion. But I think Nur is doing everything by himself, so maybe cut him some slack, although with these past dues I know it's a bore to keep on waiting.

Agree with this assessment.  I will say is that Nurmad is a super friendly guy - feel free to send him an email
