    Excellent quality sound in excellent (and I mean, excellent) quality packaging. Probably one of the best pressings I will ever own.

      I bought this record after Bonobo latest release, Fragments. Both records it sounds incredible, the bests in my collection I think. Enjoy listening!

        One of the best sounding pressings I've ever had the pleasure of listening to. It's the sonic equivalent of watching a fat stick of butter melt over a big pile of hot pancakes. Perfection, and a fine way to honour another one of Bonobo's masterpieces.

          Migration is my favourite album of 2017 as I write this and I would summarise my experience of this pressing through my setup as a truly brilliant listening experience from beginning to end. This pressing is essential for those who love this album and without a doubt those who love Bonobo and electronic music. It is without a doubt one of my favourite records to listen to in my collection of 100 LPs (so far). It sounds incredible. The mix is dynamic, clear and vibrant and gives me a greater appreciation of this impressive, one of a kind album.

          The bass is sensational when you're playing it really loud and there is so much clarity in the mix. Key differences are the inclusion of Boston Common instead of 7th Sevens as D2 and Bambro Koyo Ganda and Surface plus Ontario and No Reason have swapped places in the track listing.

          All in all a highly recommended LP purchase. I paid $42 AUD for this and I would have been happy to pay more knowing now how good this sounds.
