Deluxe CD + Blu-ray (all region) edition. Digitally remixed and remastered release from XTC's Andy Partridge, Colin Moulding, and Dave Gregory masquerading as 'lost' '60s psych band called The Dukes of Stratosphear. All tracks are newly mixed in stereo by Steven Wilson, with mixes approved by Andy Partridge. The Dukes Of Stratosphear released their debut mini-album, 25 O'Clock, in 1985. They followed that up two years later with the album Psonic Psunspot. This set compiles both albums plus two extra tracks mixed in 5.1 surround by Steven Wilson on Blu-ray (with a final song up-mixed to surround using the Penteo audio system). All 19 songs appear in their original mixes in hi-res stereo (Blu-ray). 18 songs appear in their new mixes in hi-res stereo (Blu-ray). Complete demos from both albums and instrumental versions of album songs also feature in hi-res stereo on the Blu-ray.
