SDE Blu Ray #32 and #33......Simple Minds Sparkle in the Rain and New Gold Dream! Released February 7th, 2025

i can't find them streaming in Atmos on Apple Music so maybe they're not released yet?

Ah, I misunderstood. I thought these atmos mixes were now getting standalone BD releases, having been previously locked in box sets.

Ordered both.

Hopefully this means Once Upon a Time gets SDE treatment at some point [that's the only simple minds album I'd want]. More solid releases, nonetheless.

I hope they do that album too. I'd also like to see Sons and Fascination get a surround mix.

Interesting that on Sparkle, we will get to compare a Clearmountain 5.1 to a SW 5.1 mix of the same songs.

Even though they’re from my home town I wont be buying these, not my cup of tea, I listened to both albums on you tube and it never changed my mind

Well, The Hurting got a BD with Atmos for its 30th anniversary, that's why my train of thought went like that.

It was a joke, I was referencing how every time SW remixes The Seeds of Love the band inexplicably takes at least five years to actually release it.

JPC is shipping upon availability, but charges shipping only once at least within Germany where shipping is free anyway (Vinyl and books above 20€).

Huh? I stack preordered items all the time with other retailers, specifying holding and waiting until the final release is available to ship (if necessary), and shipping in as few parcels as possible. Even other small-ish shops (e.g. Burning Shed) are fine with this. Other places also allow you to combine existing orders into one shipment. SDE is an outlier in this regard.

I'm in NZ. Like all other retailers both the SDEShop and jpc.de hold all items in an order until the latest pre-order date for any item in that order for me. I have done a number of orders with multiple shipment dates from both retailers.
