"Just a quick note to let you know what's been going on regarding the making of the new Magenta CD Home.
Firstly a big apology for the delay. It's been a frustrating time for us all, but hopefully you'll all appreciate that we could not let the album go out until it was the best it could possibly be, in every way.
The biggest problem has been getting the running order and sequencing of the CD correct. Originally it was to be a double album, but after a lot of thought and trial and error regarding the make up of the CD, we have decided that it will now be a single album. It will, however, be a very long single album!
The main reason for this is because it is a concept CD, and works best in a single listen. Double CD's can be hard to take in, particularly in one go, and a lot of detail can be lost with such an overwhelming amount of material. I wanted every second and every note to really earn its place on this album.
So, the last couple of months have been frustrating, but it was important to take stock of where we were, and not get carried away with the enthusiasm of getting it released. I am positive that this slight delay has made the difference between a good Magenta album, and what we consider to be a classic Magenta album.
