Next batch of Cure remasters...Disintegration, Wish and YES, Mixed Up!! from www.chainofflowers.com:
Cure fans will have to wait slightly longer for the next instalment of their re-issues. Next in the que are 1989's classic Disintegration, 1990's Mixed Up and 1992's Wish.
They won't surface until next year at the earliest. "They're half-ready", Robert Smith says. "I gave up on compiling the extra disc". However fans will be rewarded for their patience. "The extra disc for Disintegration will be great", he says. "It's very atmospheric. There are some strange versions of some of the songs". Meanwhile the remix album Mixed Up will come with a bonus disc of new remakes by "contemporary" remixes. Smith has also discovered the missing tapes for the 80's live concert The Cure in Orange, which will be issued on DVD along with 1993's Show. Rifling through old Cure tapes in his archive isn't only good for material for bonus discs. Smith has uncovered 3 songs which he's reworking for the new Cure album. "I was loath to put them on as extras; I'd thought they'd work well if they were played by this band", Smith says. "One's really early, between Pornography and The Top, from 1983. The other are from the Kiss Me period, 1986-87. I'm sure I'll find more, we did loads of stuff that didn't get used on Disintegration". Smith is also preparing a comprehensive DVD for The Cure's 30th anniversary in 2009. "It's all the live footage that hasn't come out, lots of TV stuff I've got on video. That's the full stop. Once that's done, that's it for the re-issuing and remastering". | |

[Edited 7/31/07 9:13am] My only issue with it was that 1/2 of it is comprised of mixes that already existed. Close to me remix wasn't that far of a stretch from the single either. Considering there were others like Primary and Just Like Heaven or was it Love Cats that didn't make it. There might have been others. Christian Zombie Vampires | |

Except the "Close To Me" remix has all of those delicious horn parts. | |

What would be nice would be if they did a 2nd disc of the remixes that were out there by that time. If there were any. Let's Go to bed (ext) Just one Kiss (ext) Inbetween Days Hey You Japanese Dream Why Can't I Be You (which was on the cassette) and I suppose include the 3 mixes that were B-Sides Just Like Heaven Primary Let's Go to Bed Most likely, it'll be contemporary mixes and will be new.

Yeah, that's pretty much exactly what I was hoping for. There are a few others too like "Pictures of You" extended and some that are slipping my mind at the moment. | |

To give them some credit...there weren't many extended versions of any of their songs prior to Disintegration. I remember friends in school playing the just like heaven "12"" and wondering where that extra second or 2 was and what the difference beteween the songs were. There was none! ![]() Christian Zombie Vampires | |

![]() They should just do a 4 disc box set like "Join the Dots" covering all their best remixes from the beginning until now. ![]() | |

There was none! ![]() The 12" version of "Just Like Heaven" is mixed differently than the album version. The guitars are more prominent in the remix and it overall sounds more rhythmic. The album version has the keyboards more upfront and sounds more dreamy. 12" versions released prior to Mixed Up not included on that album: A Forest (12" version is a minute longer than the album version I believe) Primary (extended version) Let's Go To Bed (extended version) The Lovecats (slightly longer 12"?) In Between Days (extended version) Close To Me (extended) Boys Don't Cry ('86 new voice club mix) Just Like Heaven (remix) Pictures Of You (extended remix) I think that's all of them. | |

![]() They should just do a 4 disc box set like "Join the Dots" covering all their best remixes from the beginning until now. ![]() I don't think it'd cover 4 discs. 2...maybe 3 if you figure one per song. But if you wanna include like 7 versions of Wrong Number, I suppose you could. They would proabably leave off Japanese Dream 12" for some reason. And NO I won't give it up!

There's a few more... there's (prior to Mixed up) Japanese Dream WCIBY Hey You Hot Hot Hot Fascination St Lullaby Love SOng I take issue with Close to Me though as a true 12"/Extended. It was re-worked for the single version. I don't know of any extended beyond that...thoguh I could be worng. Christian Zombie Vampires | |
