Dual Disc Pere Ubu - the Modern Dance coming soon

[user 1679]

Hi everyone,

Just noticed this posted at Pere Ubu's web site - their 1st album "Modern Dance" is coming on Dual-Disk (no firm release date yet though).

Modern Dance in Surround Sound
The Modern Dance has been re-mixed for a 5.1 surround sound DVD audio disk release. The mix was engineered by Chris Haynes at 5.1 Entertainment Group in Los Angeles. David Thomas oversaw the operation.

David reports: "This is the way we heard it in the studio... no, it's better than that, it's the way we heard it when we were playing it. The detailing is fantastic. The space reveals everything while still retaining the album's intensity and original intention. And the best thing is, if you want to hear something louder or quieter you just move your head a foot.

The release will be a dual disk. One side will be the DVD witht the audio and some special features. The other side will be the original cd in stereo. The release will be on Cooking Vinyl but there is no date yet.
