Commencing this fall, with new releases by Vic Chesnutt, Evangelista and Do Make Say Think, Constellation will for the first time make MP3 versions of the albums available directly from its own webshop. The label’s direct MP3 orders will be bundled with a limited edition, release-specific poster made especially for this purpose (and for inclusion in first pressings of the label’s deluxe vinyl editions). Each poster will be printed using some combination of special printing techniques and fine recycled papers. Posters purchased as part of the MP3 bundle will be rolled and shipped in tubes.
Constellation is also introducing ‘first pressings’ of their 180 gram vinyl. First pressings will come with the limited edition poster – folded once and inserted in the LP jacket alongside the other album inserts the label would normally provide in its generally artwork-intensive vinyl editions. First pressings will also include a full CD copy of the album – uncompressed digital audio that the buyer can then extract, squeeze and squash as she sees fit.”
