This really good track. How does the Emerson mix sound like?

Nice spot!

Hard to say if it's genuine, though

Anyway, we already know who's gonna win it...

can't say i should leave it alone...

it looks pretty genuine - too much of a risk not to bid...

um...

the ending date for that Auction is for the fifth... which, I think is the same day as the release of the next RR.

So therefore - the seller could've just made a generic, real looking promo cover and put the item up for auction (technically before it exists)

then the guy could just d/l the tracks and burn them to cd

which, I bet is why the tracks aren't separated out

Most promos are send out before an official release.

i'd be willing to bet the cost of the final sale that this is a bootleg.

can someone from UW confirm the existence of this promo?

[big screen satellite]

if you read all of the details on the sleeve - it does look very convincing - with the copywrite details and the fonts look like the most recent promo's i've got from UW

its possibly a sampler that they send to magazines to review before the actual download release date... its just a shame that the misterons mix isn't on there...

if I win this i'd expect to get it on Tuesday and hence before the guy gets the chance to download part three...

Sadly Underworld are not the Beatles and despite their most unique of items gping for big bucks on ebay, these mp3's are readily available (or will be) albeit not in this format, and as such the guy selling this may not make big bucks out of it... (i hope) its not really worth bootlegging and in advance its very clever if it is...

here's hoping its genuine, which i believe it is...

Did someone ask the seller for a pic of the actual cd? Maybe it could clear things up a bit.

agreed

but - I mean, that's one hell of a coincidence that the auction ends on the same day it's readily available as a download know what I mean?

Isn't it "The Riverrun Project", not "The Riverrun Series"?

Smells and looks fakey to me.

"...is the third in the riverrun series..."

Look closely at the picture... You can even see the titles printed on the CD... I'd say it's genuine. (or a first-class fake )
