Ah man, Amazon would have been better for me too. I went and downloaded iTunes and everything to get the songs. I suppose I should have waited until I got more responses to my original post. I'm such a completest I wanted it before I couldn't get it anymore. I actually like the "honey" and "buttermilk" versions. I hate the sped up voice in the original. It seems so out of place in an otherwise good song.
Making love and music are the only things worth fighting for.

itunes? Not 4 me, mp3.



I'll hold out for a Prince album, produced by Prince. Cool that he's giving Josh some shine though...



Just for accuracy's sake, iTunes doesn't sell mp3's. Hell, at this point, considering the way most music is mastered and mixed, a 256 aac/m4a sounds better than a lot of CD's.


I did not know this. So they sell WAV and/or FLAC?



I do agree with what you say about most music these days... compressed to death with no real dynamics. I'm sure these remixes fit into that category.



To be honest, most of the stuff I listen to via my wireless ROKU is m4a, mp3, etc.




I thought you were against MP3? Always slagging off download only material in favour of CD and vinyl yet you choose to listen to MP3 at home confused

Oh what the hey, I just bought it for £3.99 on iTunes UK.

The Buttermilk mix is pleasant enough, nice guitar noodling.

I'll give the other tracks a proper listen at some point.

It is odd that Prince has released some recent tracks via both third-party digital download sites (such as iTunes, Amazon etc) and sometimes released those same tracks via his own 3rdeyegirl site. I must admit purchasing and downloading and instantly listening with my iphone via iTunes wirelessly over home wi-fi is definitely the simplest option for me.

I agree with you

It is the most easiest solution for most people and for the masses

No doubt he will get more sales this way

I am indeed against mp3. However, most of the stuff via the ROKU (internet radio, etc.) is in mp3 format. This is all free. I have stated previously that I would never pay for mp3, and that will always stand.

From the remarks on this post I wasn't expecting much when I downloaded the ep

so I was surprised when I heard them at how good they are.

Really like Espresso.

I find if I take the original song and follow it with Buttermilk that's pretty close to an extended version.

Is it one of Princes best maxi- singles? No.

But it is far from his worst.

I would give it a B. biggrin

Not a real fan of this song, coming from a 55 year old its still sounds like hes chasing an audience that doesnt exist anymore for him especially, plus i just think its more lazy RB stuff that sounds like it was from aborted projects. It just sounds "phoned in", from someone that does amazing stuff on stage, hes releases and for the most part are just so painting by numbers at this point. It reminds me of when he won a grammy for "Future Baby Mama" i thought, has everyone gotten that bad in RB that one of his worst gets an award?

The irony is 2014 is the 20th anniversary of Prince's last hit single

Jesus, this will be the third time he's selling the same goddamn song. WTF? The second time on iTunes, i feel i should not have one song discounted from the EP since I already bought it once..

.......

.......

Okay, i just bought it. I hate you Prince!

I really don't mind this little release. Sure I wish it had more variety for the money, but as a whole it's a nice little sequence of jams. The Espresso mix is the shit and I wish it was a minute longer -- but then again, maybe if it was I wouldn't want more. In this period of highly uneven releases, this one gets a thumbs up.

prince 's added guitar riffs to the already brilliant "MasterPiece" "Breakfast Xperience" is magnificent!!!!!! He never stops ceasing to amaze me! He should do the "Xpresso" version on his upcoming appearance on Arsenio...

eye will ALWAYS think of prince like a "ACT OF GOD"! N another realm. eye mean of all people who might of been aliens or angels.if found out that prince wasn't of this earth, eye would not have been that surprised. R.I.P. prince

Real remixing by real remixers!
Skrillex or Deadmaus for a Dubstep version.
Carl Cox or Laurent Garnier for the House version
Waajeed for the Hip Hop J Dilla version.
Carl Craig for the Techno version
Flying Lotus or Tokimonsta for the LA Beat version

First time I've flat out refused to purchase something of his. Crap song, crap video and ok sure there must be a charm to the remixes but I'll wait until its in an online charity shop I think

on iTunes I was able to hear samples to The Breakfast Experience: (1:30, each song),

and I did not like what I heard.. sad

>> I haven't purchased the ILIT video

>> I haven't purchased the Breakfast Experience


THIS was completely unthinkable in the great "old days":

Back "then" I was hunting -and buying- everything I could get my hands on from Prince.

"2013 will be big" ????

Wtf was he talking about on Dr Funkenberry, I am not feeling this year's releases...... question boxed

Makes me a little sad..... hopefully a new album is coming, sometime in 2014, and hopefully it will be better than the releases: 2013.. sad

Why should I leave, I loooove Prince's music,

Not all of it, though.

I am expressing my opinion, some is good and some is bad.

That is (maybe) the diffrence between U and me;

Not all is "a masterpiece", far from.. IMHO. wink

Why don't U just pack up and leave by 2014 and close your Org account while U at it! How could U even say that this year was not big? After Prince opened up and created a LIVESTREAM in2 his private rehearsals! To me that is WAY better than a album. NO ONE is buying albums anymore anyway! Eye don't even know why most of U even bother to post. Your so negative! Prince has never been so open to his fans in his 30 something year career. U have no respect 4 him whatsoever disbelief !! At least Jesse & Dr.FnB appreciates him. They have been rewarded in his kingdom abundantly for it. But U hate on them also...rolleyes

umm they are on Amazon. clearly the better place to get them cuz cloud

I never bought on Amazon either but it seems an easier way of purchasing them. Anybody here who knows the bit rate of the Amazon mp3s?

showing 234kbps

more info here:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/dmusic/marketing/CloudPlayerLaunchPage

most of amazon CD releases (some vinyl) also are added to cloud (u order a cd and get cloud version also when u see that "AutoRip" logo). very cool to be able to access music anywhere from cloud. with amazon acct u also have an amount of free space. i uploaded 3121/GoldExp to cloud. they also have an APP in google play store, basic player that access all your music on cloud. its a sweet added perk.

I know its likely that itunes is 320 but I never cared for itunes, if I can get a cd for most of my released and access on cloud its awesome to have music there.

I think Josh did a nice job on the remixes. Not something I will play to death like the Beautiful Exp, nonetheless I likely will listen to these mixes here n there.

Not bad. Appreciate the release! Bring on FUNKNROLL!
