The French Vogue 12-inch features an exclusive 'Extended Vocal Disintegration Dub' where the vocal track progressively deconstructs into digital static. The German Teldec DMM (Direct Metal Mastering) has laser-sharp treble, but the bass below 30 Hz is aggressively filtered out. Who has the French Vogue 12-inch? I will pay cash or trade rare synthpop vinyl. -- Élodie Nakamura Practical Peripherals 14.4 @ 14,400 bps "5 sigma is a discovery. 7 is a question."

The UK Fennimore copy is by far the best sounding. The bass shakes the floorboards on a good pair of speakers. -- Dong-hyun Kowalski "Row 14. No joke."
