(2CD) Pre sale (04.10.2024) | ZYX 83151-2 | 0194111033344 The tracklist for the vol. 2 does list all 15 tracks, including the both versions of Movimento quotidiano. That may be a difference from the double CD release, also a quarter a year delay from the two other versions can mean they may have it pressed it elsewhere.

This one actually fits 74 minute length, so it’s a good cadidate, even a double LP would be nice. However, I don’t feel ZYX is much interested in reissuing it, as this isn’t Gigi’s album but Luca Noise’s one. As far as I know they never released his singles and EP’s in 2000’s, though they did release CD’s and vinyl with Gigi’s aliases and projects. Although Gigi was engaged in all the songs but one on Potenza adeguata.

I had a look on the internet regarding the maximum length of CD's if I find something interesting what pressing plants recommend or whatever. I found an older topic on Gearspace, there you can read that Sony DADC or Cinram did not recommend going over 79:10 or 78:30 respectively, Bob Katz wrote that pressing plants often made customers sign a waiver if the CD exceeds like 78 minutes, so it was a customer's responsibility if the wouldn't play properly, someone else also said good luck finding a plant that make a CD longer than 81 minutes, though there are such CD's, on Discogs there's a box of CD's with Mozart's works and multiple discs exceed 86 minutes. So ZYX may play it safe in the end, they may not want to take a risk a CD stops to play before the actual end of the last song. And after reading negative reviews about their vinyl releases, they want to make at least their CD's well. 😉

It is there, but the 14th track (Movimento Quotidiano F.M.) is missing. CD2 T12 Gigidagostino lwonderwhy Gigidagfrombeyondtolive 5 56 https://m.soundcloud.com/zyxmusic/sets/disco-tanz-cd2

Since he calls it a “collection” it may even be the complete discography including remixes in mp3. The reasonable bitrate could be around 96 kbps to fit it all on a single disc, that would give space to roughly 250 four minute songs.

I wonder why it is an Apple exclusive release. Anyway, somebody should write to ZYX that we want it on vinyl with the tracklist mentioned above and preferably with the same artwork which will give the sufficient resolution of 80 dpi.

It looks like it disappeared everywhere except for Apple Music where on the other hand Gigi D'Agostino Collection Vol. 2 is missing. Edit: The Vol. 2 on Apple Music is not visible in their list of albums, but it can be found using Google search engine. Edit #2: I’ve just realized they also have a section with compilations and there it is. 😉

I hadn’t realized what date it is until you’ve mentioned it, it looks like it is a joke. The 1st April 2025 is on Tuesday and not Friday as it’s a common day for new releases, the catalogue number looks weird as well, there is only a placeholder instead of a real bar code and the picture shows only one diarrhoea coloured record, the second one which would likely be of different colour is missing. 😁

Since they are re-issuing Some Experiments on CD, it’d be reasonable to come with LP, too. The whole compilation is 159 minutes long, a pack of eight records is unthinkable, the solution must be to squeeze 40 minutes per side on 4 LP’s, either recording it very silent (such LP’s do exist, the longest duration of a side at 33⅓ RPM is around an hour for music) or record it at 16⅔ RPM which is also doable.

By the way, if you have a contact there, you may try to send a message through him if it gets to responsible people above, so they could speed up the three CNV2 tracks to 135.34% for this reissue in the end. 🙂

What did I say? 🙂 And I still believe the first Gigi D'Agostino album may appear on vinyl as well. (Let’s hope they release it à la style of their L’amour toujours single, which means no worries and LP sides may end with a transition to the next song and the other sides begin with the end of a previous track. Keeping my fingers crossed for that.) Is a diarrhoea color an official marketing term? 😁

Honestly, I even expected it to be a three or four page gatefold, thus they could’ve made it an ordinary thick sleeve with four inners inside. 👎 Are those silver letters actually silver as on the original CD’s or just printed in the shades of grey with an embossed like look?
