I'm ucirous to see how many people have bought the 10" Afterlights and what you think of it.
Personally I find it a better complement to Disclosure than City Form Above was to The West Pole. (overall the cru 2012 is better than 2009 ;-)).

I'm being hypnotized Tuning in, Fading out... What a fantastic track!! It's only drawback is that it's too short ;-)

It's really good, for a while I even preferred it to the full length album

I think Tuning in... and Echoes keep Growing could have made it to the album aswell ;-)) those are definitely no B sides...

I was wondering if the band would upload it for download at their bandcamp page, I have the vinyl but haven't listened to it yet, haven't bought a decent turntable, I need it in lossy mp3!!!!!! I'd be willing to pay for it again :(

I guess it wont be released as CD... At some point I regret it cause indeed I would like to have a digital version of it to take with me on the road...
on the other end, this EP is released for die hard fans, and it's nice to know it's still some special item which is not available (yet) digitally... the extra EP City from Above could easily be uploaded on the web so the exclusivity was less great as Afterlights's one.

I guess it's ok to post what Hans Rutten answered me a few weeks ago?
"Afterlights will be released as a dig. download in about 1 or 2 months from now.
We will release it on CD as well, but we are not sure how and when.
Cheers! "

I'm looking forward to the download. :-)

Great news and no-one posting it?!

Quote:
As you might know, we’ve released four exclusive tracks on a limited edition 10 inch vinyl EP called ‘Afterlights’.
We’ve received many requests to release this one on CD, so we’ve decided to do so.
Besides the original tracks this Afterlights CD will contain some brand new songs that we are finalizing as we speak! We hope to release this CD early 2013. We’ll keep you posted!


So we have to wait a few months/weeks more, but I'm looking forward for Afterlights with even more tracks! :P I'm really glad that the guys from Gathering made this decision.

Didn't realise it would have different tracks to the vinyl release, so ignored the announcement at first as just rereleasing something I already have on an inferior format :p

Afterlights is the perfect afterparty to Disclosure. More trippy, atmospheric and ambient with some bits of sonic overload. I like it a lot. :green:

More than half a year - as well as "early 2013" - passed by. Come on guys, I need some fresh dope. :-)
Anything new about the release of "Afterlights"?
