Update nr. 1:
February 14th, 2012
Analogue Synth masters Node are set to return in 2012 after a 15 year break with brand new material. The group are made up of world famous producers Flood and Ed Buller, who between them have worked with the likes of Nine Inch Nails, Depeche Mode, Pulp, U2 and Suede. Alongside them is acclaimed musician, composer and professor of music Dave Bessell and film score extraordinaire Mel Wesson.
The group will release their first album in over 15 years, following up from their self titled debut album in 1996. Alongside this they will run a Pledge Music campaign where fans will be given the unique opportunity to be part of the creative process as well as having the chance to purchase exclusive merchandise and content and receive the album before anyone else.

This is a classic example of what I would call "viral marketing"... when I was still working in advertising, we were calling this "vapour ware".

Vapour ware is all around us, the internet is full of it and then there is global warming... 
I never participated in a "Pledge Music" exercise bfore and not quite sure what it may be about.
I am curious though, but if our scene supports a 200-500CD's sales over 2-3 years and a 500 batch costs around $1000 to actually make, would this pledge be to cover that amount, basically the listeners to pay for the release.
I'd would prefer to just get the album without hearing a thing a note than a couple of years of teasers, hints and reminders.
Interesting to see how this works out, it may well change the current state of releasing and distributing real CD's.

I'm not comfortable about this Pledge-construction either... just simply release this music as a factory-pressed cd, as I'm sure it's financially worth doing so...

I might have been interested in the pledge thingy, if it wasn't for the quite unreliable history the Node guys have with releasing music. I mean, we've heard the rumours about a new release for how many years now? Who's telling me they will really release something this time?

Absolutely. One simple CD release would be, erm, less than one of those COTK or MoonModular modules. Nearly hassle-free to do if you hand distribution over to somebody else.

If and when it ever does come out, can't see it living up to its seventeen year old predecessor. Music that polarised opinions at the time, especailly emma 2 , but still remains better than anything releases since of its kind.

Aye, much as we love folks to be on the up, it gives us far less to yak about compared to that magical time when they're judged to be on the slide...
