Garethx Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 There are two distinct presses or mixes for this release if memory serves. There should be a thread in the Look At Your Box archive with more detail. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Garethx Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 The slower intro mix is pretty tough to find. Both have exactly the same labels I think… Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
