: I know I should be happy that anything past "Krafty" is getting any release, but why all the delay betweeen the import, the digital release and the physical single? I suppose if I knew that I could work at a record label and not just post random blog complaints about it. At least the Richard X mixes will find their way to my collection (I was damned close to picking up the import).
