Cheers! Yeah that score is SO great!
Oh I wasn't a direct part of the vinyl edits, but I know everyone involved worked hard and went through a bunch of test pressing to make sure everything was legit quality!

Glad your experience was so positive as well. People in my life really enjoy the soundtrack, it's seriously inspiring. Something about how the chords swell and the piano-centric melodies...
I'd send them a quick email. The same thing happened to me with a different company. Turned out to be a glitch in their ordering system or something.
Good idea, I just dropped them a short line. Thanks!

600 copies
I really hope I can get this, my wife adores this game. She would love to listen to the music.

At least they clarify that this is a "first pressing", so if we miss out there will be other opportunities.
Tri-color or something else?
Pretty sure it's also the tri-color.

YUP! Just got the Mondo Music Weekly email and it's on there. Hopefully I can get online to snag one at the usual time.
So, we know Data Discs is working on Altered Beast as per their tweet a while back, but considering the length of that OST, do you think they'll pair it with another game on the other game on the flip side?
Personally, I think Alien Storm would be a great pairing: similar time period, both arcade ports, and they would compliment each other well. Also, that ending theme is too good.

I've got this on preorder but can't stop listening to the digital. It's such a fantastic album. Hearing Kakariko village in a minor key is amazing.
I listened through this in its entirety once before, but couldn't make out any Shadow Temple representation. Am I missing something?
Heard back from Mondo, they're apparently moving warehouses, which is slowing things down. Wish they'd given us a heads-up in advance, but good to know at least.

No, I don't think so, but I'd probably make myself draw blood and start crying if I heard a HQ rendition of that Shadow Temple music.

yeah that's kinda shitty how they never said anything beforehand.
Um, so is there any way to discern between Mondo variants without opening the records? Picked up standard CVIII, never got around to listening to it, then grabbed one of those splatters when they went up randomly later. Want to keep the splatter and sell the regular, but I don't want to open both. : (
First, I would check Discogs and look closely at the descriptions for each variant. Sometimes there is a differentiator that people have kindly described on the ID tags on spines or by the barcode, but this isn't always the case.
Occasionally there are other tells based on labels or stickers on the wrap. Again, not always though.
Only differentiators that I can see according to Discogs are on the discs themselves. Grr. Guess I'll just pop one open and hope for the best. What the fuck, Mondo?

On one hand I don't care about Altered Beast - on the other hand, there will be a glaring gap in my data-discs collection...

They know what they were doing with those numbered releases, lmao.
Is this the first Friday release for DD? They usually drop on Saturdays.
Oh shit, can't wait! The original artwork looks awesome on the cover. Kinda sad that they decided to go the 45rpm route and just feature Altered Beast, instead of pairing it with another soundtrack (Kinda like Galaxy Force 2/Thunder Blade)
I know the music is kinda meh for Altered Beast, but I kind of have to go for this one, I was kind of obsessed with the game when I was a kid, for whatever reason.

Haha, this is the exact reason I only bought Streets of Rage and not Shenmue too, as I knew it'd get harder and harder to resist each release
Yes, they said so in their newsletter.
Great!, fat chance of me getting one then!. When do they go on sale?
Just copy-pasting from their newsletter. I guess it will be prioritized for the allocated UK/EU and public slots:
Also this is the full text on SCV4:
It goes live the same day as Altered Beast, so I think that's why.
Spacelab9 will have be selling a Fallout 3 single LP via ThinkGeek on Friday: http://www.thinkgeek.com/product/jort/
It's basically a repress of the Hot Topic picture disc from a while back, but in a proper jacket and on "radaway" colored vinyl instead.

Damn, this one is a must for me. Love Stardew Valley too much to pass on this.
Oh, interesting, I've actually hesitated on that one in the past because of the picture disc but may pull the trigger here.
