Great to see the Grunt / Ramirez split widely available again.
Is there any chance of the Grunt / Macronympha split LP ever being reissued?

[FreakAnimalFinland]

This LP is little bit tricky, as I think I do not have the master tapes for it. Of course even clean vinyl rip could do it, but it is not ideal. Of course if in reality one can only listen to LP, or recording out of LP, that should be fine when done well.

Many of the older Freak Animal releases are actually so old, that the one and only existing master tape was sent to pressing. No back up copies, no digital files. When you sent it to press, they kept the master in case you have complaints of test press or pressing, so they can compare are the flaws. Many times masters were not returned, unless you requested it after all turned to be ok.  Grunt / K2 LP I have still audio. Macro/Grunt, Facialmess/Grunt, I think not.. most of 7"s, not. There are tons of 4-track tapes of early works, though. More complicated to get accurate mixdown, but theoretically doable.
