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. Why did different European territories receive completely different extended arrangements? -- Göran Sánchez | gsanchez@unam.mx PGP Key fingerprint: C83C BC14 442B 6523 "Keep the channels open."
