"Each month starting in September 1997, we [Matador] will be releasing a series of DJ 12"s featuring remixes of Pizzicato Five songs by such luminaries as 808 State Sean O'Hagan Gus Gus Oval and many others they will be compiled on a remix album early next year." just when you think you've heard everything. a show of hands, please: how many thought we'd ever find Markus Popp and P5 sharing the same soundspace?

Let me just point out now that they have stated that all 12"s will be compiled onto _one_ medium next year. Advance warning for all you whiners out there. -- guy@earthweb.com a.k.a., Guy Elden, Jr.

Contrary to common opinion, clear did actually warn people about the Metamatics compilation. -hjw There is an easy answer to your problem that is neat, plausible, and wrong.

they stated there would be a METAMATICS CD RELEASE, not that it was the LIMITED EDITION 12"s on the CD, at the very beginning. I also received an email from Clear way back when (which I wish I saved) admitting that they did not release that info at the time of the first limited 12" release, but at the 3rd 12" release (notice all the #3 & #4 12"s still readily available?!) and the only people that MAY have known about the CD release are the people that received white label promos... they also said they released the material true what what they were given as master tapes. (whatever that has to do with it)

Granted, they could have been more explicit in their statements, but I reckon it was just a bad oversight on their part. -hjw If you consult enough experts, you can confirm any opinion.
