Well, it’s here. After what seemed like an eternity, my Metamatic Box Set arrived!
I’ll get some scans once the initial excitement has worn off a little. The details, though:
- 3 Remastered CDs, containing the original studio album plus two discs of extra tracks, alternate versions and unreleased material.
- 6 square ‘art cards’ featuring album artwork and ARP Odyssey patches, one of which is boldly signed by the man himself.
- Booklet containing lyrics, unreleased images, more ARP Odyssey patches from samples used on the Metamatic tracks.
- Limited Signed Edition of 750. These sold out pretty damn fast. Only the non-signed editions are available now. Scalpers on eBay are selling them for three times what I paid (£12.49 can you believe).
