You can buy 47 of the tracks from Dreamscapes on grenzwellen.com. I saw that some of the names of the tracks has been slightly changed like Faith (Assassin-Mix) and also some new info about the songs like (Lunapark Version)...

I wonder if Alphaville will sell new MP3s in the future?

...and some songs from the UNITED...

Thats pretty cool !
but i dont know, is it worthy ?
I mean, buying a few songs is cheaper / expensive / more or less the same like buying a complete CD or a box ?
Not that i care since i have them both [wink]

[Avil]

For those that never have heard the songs, I'm sure it's worth it. :)

Was this an official release?

There is only one version of Faith on Dreamscapes 7, and that's called "Portobello remix".


As for a digital release of DS, the albums are still available on iTunes, but they don't have all the songs the whole digital set originally had.

[humanracer]

So is the Assassin mix the same as the Portobello mix and if not where can I hear it? Someone here has it?

[MalilaM]

You can buy DS7 on iTunes.

Why are some of the songs even missing anyways? I can understand why Highschool Confidential isn't available (licensing issues?) but some of the best ones are flat-out missing. It's a shame, because I want to get a-hold of the set so badly! I'm wanting a few CrazyShow songs, as well. If anybody can hook me up with the original MP3's which were sent out to fans back in 2001 under the "Dreamscapes 9" name, then PM me. I'm looking for First Monday in the Year 3K and Heartbreaker in particular, and I truly don't want to pirate them.

You can buy the whole edited set here for a very low price

Songs are missing because Marian promised the original boxes would be "exclusive"

Soulseek is a good file sharing program for finding rare/out of print material. It is up to you what you use it for.

[humanracer]

Also if I remember right, the DS 9 songs are the same ones on Crazyshow. I don't think there was any difference.

[MarianGoldfan123]

WOW! No kidding! They even offer it in FLAC format. Thanks a million, humanracer. You made my day.

[MarianGoldfan123]

I bought the Dreamscapes FLAC version. Thanks a bunch.

Now if only I could legally get FLAC versions of Heartbreaker and Waiting for the new light..

[Foolship1077]

And what's FLAC? I saw it, too, but not sure what they meant.

[MarianGoldfan123]

Oh. It means it's a lossless rip of the original track: MP3 files discard information in the audio file to make sure the file size is small whereas FLAC's are 1:1 to the CD. Now I don't have to buy the physical copy of Dreamscapes... Though I do find it funny that 2 of the ones I wanted are missing (Romeos demo and then Highschool Confidential, but I can live without them).

I went and bought the Call Me demo remix from there as well. Gosh I love that site!
