I ordered through Domino (I think!) and I got it sent from 11spot - it took a while, but I got it just yesterday. I didn't contact them. I just got a shipping invoice from 11spot randomly, and I wasn't really quite sure what it was. It might be different if you just ordered the CD, though - I got vinyl, so the bigger size might've necessitated different shipping.

Hmm, I don't think I shipping info.. pretty sure just an order confirmation, but I could be wrong.
no, I'm also ordering vinyl too. I preorder the LP and 7" what seems like forever ago. but yes, I really should just hold tight. I remember it taking 3+ months for me to receive the records from blocks blocks blocks... ahhh

When I ordered 10" eps from Blocks, it took about 5 months. At that time, I almost took the airplane to go to Toronto! ;D Richie. We WILL get the pre-orders for sure. We are living on the planet earth. (I will email Domino again. )

wait, so am I really going to have to email the record label to have it sent? they mailed confirmation emails and the charges were made... errg, really? also, jules, that map of spectrum. funny, i was wanting to draw out a typical fantasy-novel-world-map-style drawing of spectrum and you beat me to it. cool. i still sort of want to. I'm just afraid I'm going to make some sort of interpreting error and be mocked. -wait, you did make that map right? oh how i would love the sheet music to be released for this.. i cannot confirm. I had nothing to with thye map, just posted it

I finally got my "Heartland." *Yip-yip-kazoo!* (Three months to get orders from Blocks?! I wish I would have just bought the "Spectrum" vinyl at the show...) I'm not sure I really want to go into what I think about it right now, and I'm definably certain that nobody cares, but I will go on record as saying that it's an amazing listening experience in terms of what can be done with sounds: a producer's album. Every time I hear those deteriorating clicks at the end of "LTOHS," it sounds like they're coming from some spot directly behind my eyes. It's fascinating.
Anyway, I was surprised to find that the vinyl was pressed at 45 rpm. Does anyone with knowledge of recording know if there's a valid sound quality-related reason for this, or was it just to make the album spread over two discs?

I also thought it was interesting it was a 45, though I don't know enough about records to know if it makes any difference sound-wise to having it 33rpm.

Cool, I thought there must be some reason for having it as 45 rpm. And I have to say it does sound very nice on vinyl.

I'd really like to hear the great elsewhere with a live orchestra. The Vienna FM4 show had Owen Solo-ing it...The Final Fantasy + Symphony Nova Scotia recording (not the recent one, mind you) that I got somewhere on here has an orchestrated version, but it's not very good sound quality...that's all I got. I can't really hear the orchestra in that recording, it sounds the same as his solo version.

Happy but the sticker on the 7" is like this. got to Seoul before Maui?! Grrr haha glad you got it lare look at the bright side, though its crooked and facing the wrong way, it says "Final Fantasy" thats cool. no? so you never got an email response, it was on its way the whole time? *tries his hardest to wait patiently*
