It is indeed both creepy and fabulous. It also includes screen-printed artwork by Motorboy (of Pete Martell running to warn Harry and Dale not to drink the coffee), and a replication of the map to the Black Lodge. Don't buy it from Boomkat though - their P+P costs are hideous (EDIT: and it's sold out there anyway). Get it with free P+P from V/Vm direct (http://www.brainwashed.com/vvm) - trust me, he needs all the money he can get.

(while you're there, download my two New Beat mixtapes - they're sub-par, and one of them has Pump Up The Jam in it, but at least they're free)

I've only ever known V/Vm to reissue a couple of releases out of the hundred or so he's put out since 1996, so the chances are remote. However he may upload MP3s to his website at some point (maybe in a year or two), or the audio may appear on his upcoming 7-disc retrospective box-set, but I'd say that's is very unlikely. In the mean time, there are some MP3 previews featuring reprocessed versions of Pink Room and the Fire Walk With Me theme on the website. Might also be worth checking out the torrent sites, as they could appear on there.

Hi again, having listened to the preview samples makes me want this collection even more ! :(

I haven't found anything on e-mule or any torrents that i know of, though i'm not too up on finding torrents,
not done it that much. Anyone here on the boards have any ideas to help ?

If you can, then a big thankyou in advance! :D

On a V/Vm/Lynch note, here's the former's pastiche/tribute to Mulholland Drive:

Just to let you know, any hope of a repressing almost certainly went out of the window when V/Vm and V/Vm Test Records officially disbanded on New Years Day. Fans of Lynchian dystopian audio might be interested in a couple of forthcoming repressings of albums recorded under the name The Caretaker - I know one of them's Theoretically Pure Anterograde Amnesia, a 6-disc boxset of distressed Eraserheade-esque noise and drones (also available to download for free as DRM-free MP3s from his website), and another one, probably A Stairway To The Stars (I could be wrong though), which features reworked versions of classic pre-war pop and ballroom. The name Caretaker is a reference to The Shining, which may give you a clue as to the nature of the sounds...
