Music Unavailable on Digital (and Getting It There!)

[xtophermorrison]

I’ve randomly discovered today that SWEET 7 is finally available in full on Spotify in the USA.



Still no CHANGE album, but we‘ve had About You Now and Denial through random compilations, and now we have Change the song:

I believe Three is a recent addition, too???!!

Sadly still not worldwide - on a quick spot check its not on AppleMusic Greece - @Vasilios correct?

 

[Mirwais Ahmadzaï]

NOT The Complete Bs as well!!!

 

[Sexbox]

There's so much Sugababes on Apple Music US now! EPs, compilations, albums...

 

[mrp2910]

So "Ray of Light"s remixes and "Has To Be" have made it to digital tonight, and so has a bunch of remixes of Real McCoys "Another Night", so a big win for 1990's electronic/dance music fans

Ooh hope Runaway is next.

Nope.
BUT we now have the About A Girl Single up there!

 

[Stopremix]

Oh my god.

 

[Island]

Fff not the Get Sexy single with Keisha! I WILL USE.

 

[zephyr]

Amazing seeing the Complete Bs on streaming! Will it be added to download as well (iTunes etc) - anyone know?

Oh this is a very new addition, as I've been checking often if it's available. Looks like a ton of singles/EPs are also up

I can finally stream the video version of Freak Like Me! On my way to recreate the video!

 

[Atletico]

I'm always so disappointed when I play Sophie's Trip the Light Fantastic on Spotify and realise Can't Have It All is excluded.

The regular version of New Tomorrow by A Friend In London has been taken off Spotify. There's now just a crappy remix of it from 2012 that makes it sound like a Basshunter song!

Has anyone asked into the chances of getting Melanie C's Reason singles back up digitally? I much prefer the single version of "On the Horizon".

There are shed loads of Universal Music owned digital releases from 2002-6 that have come offline and I’ve never been able to get a straight answer on why. Some of them (like AllSTARS, Jaimeson and Monaco’s albums) have been reinstated when I’ve asked. Others Nada.

Without knowing the detail on all of them, is it a possibility the masters went up in smoke?

It's just frustrating that some slipped off but not all, isn't it? Leaving some artists single b-sides, mix and radio edit availability as sketchy as Kylie's Parlophone era.

Not at all. This is stuff that was digitised at the time of release and just slipped off

Hopefully his second album is following

Also bit of a plug but as I have lost the ability to do monthly email round ups (cheers Wix), I’m trying this which also includes tracks that have come online but not through my own doing. Will update monthly
