Thank you for posting. Looks like a tasty product. Nothing so far on their official site about this yet.

I'm tempted by this, it's a fantastic album.

I played this album for months when it was released...but no remixes? No nothing?

They had some nice remixes at the time.

I actually like this one better than the original:

CD, original album no bonus tracks,

ok wait there's a DVD!! ... with audio on it

I love Blue Lines, not sure I would get this without any bonus tracks/remixes. I don't usually sit around watching music videos, too busy

This isn't from Blue Lines but great example of remix

Why not include fan favorite "Any Love"?

Either the original from 1988.. or the re-recorded version on the b-side of Daydreaming

Yeah for an album that had no shortage of extra versions, I am confused by the choice to not compile them to a secondary deluxe disc.

Didn't Mad Professor remix a whole album of Massive? All dub remixes?

Yes he remixed their second album "Protection." The remix version was titled "No Protection."
