Someone correct me if I'm wrong? Everyone was looking for that thing, and it's almost impossible to find. You can get a used copy for 1500 yen on Amazon Japan -- and ordering from there is an experience everyone should have at least once. I bought the entire Orange Juice discography on CD there about 6 years ago when the Yen-to-Dollar ratio wasn't so nightmarish. It was kinda cool when the package arrived.

Totals 3 and 4 are my fave and that Aguayo LP is really, really good. Strongly recommended for fans of sturdy minimal techno. Kompakt stuff is exciting, of course.
