Lately I made a list of my 100 favourite records of all time (seems childish but I’m kind of obsessed with lists, can’t help it…), and I found 5 Alpha albums in it. The only musician to get more is Sole with 6 albums but under 5 different names and bands so I guess it doesn’t count. :p
Maybe it’s time to refresh this page with 11th trip?
Both Ariel and Made In Space are available thru Amazon and CDBaby, but unfortunately not in high quality (at least 320kbps). I hate variable bitrates. Google Play offers its entire music inventory in 320kbps, and so does 7Digital (for the most part). I’d love to have both Ariel and especially Made In Space in 320 or higher kbps.
We will look into why CD baby is low, that’s not good. We are planning to release a special edition of Made in Space on CD. We will keep you posted.
Ariel EP MP3 only. No, there will be no more represses of Made in Space
is there any chance that ariel ep will be ever release as cd (if it is possible without awful remixes on american edition of “the sky is mine”)?
what was in special edition cd tin case of “made in space”, proper cd or cd-r? also, is there a chance for it to be re-released on proper cd?
We will put some of these tunes on the alphaheaven compilations
