Inside The Outside Of The Inside

There’s a test pressing of the album ‘The Principle of Doubt’ up for sale. If anyone is interested in buying, please contact me. I will give you the contact information of the one who’s selling it.

By popular demand, Mekong Delta has decided to put up their official catalog for digital purchase. Ralf Hubert has been working on his own server but this would prove to take way too long concerning the time available to him. Therefor he decided to go with well-known digital platform bandcamp. From now on all official releases are available for purchase at:

Ralf has an announcement to make:

German :

Hallo an Alle,

es geschehen tatsächlich noch Wunder. Das 6te Mekong Delta Vinyl release, Visions Fugitives”, ist endlich fertig. Hat nur 9 Monate gedauert, aber man soll Presswerke ja nicht hetzen. Bei dieser Veröffentlichung handelt es sich um eine Premiere. “Visions Fugitives” wurde damals, bei der Erstveröffentlichung – dem Zeitgeist entsprechend – nur auf CD herausgebracht, es gab also noch nie eine Vinylfassung. Wie sich die Zeiten ändern. Heute ist Vinyl schon fast wieder die Nummer eins bei neuen ( Metal ) Alben. Da ich nur eine begrenzte Menge für Fans direkt ordern kann ( der Vertrieb will ja auch welche haben ), wäre es gut, wenn die unter Euch, die Interresse daran haben, sich im Vorfeld einmal kurz melden, so das ich eine entsprechende Anzahl reservieren kann.

Beste Grüsse,

Ralf Hubert / Mekong Delta

Hello to all of you,

miracles do indeed happen. The 6th Mekong Delta vinyl release, “Visions Fugitives”, is finally ready. It only took 9 months, but pressing plants shouldn’t be rushed. At this Publication is a first. In line with the zeitgeist, “Visions Fugitives” was only released on CD when it was first released, so it still existed never a vinyl version. How times change. Today, vinyl is almost number one again for new ( metal ) albums. Since I can only order a limited amount directly for fans (as the distributor want to have some too ), it would be good if those of you who are interested in it would contact me briefly in advance so that I can reserve a corresponding number.

Best regards,

Ralf Hubert / Mekong Delta

Hallo an Alle,

Nach dem durch Covid bei uns alle Releases wegen Problemen bei den Herstellern verschoben werden mussten, sind nun endlich die DigiBooks von der “Dances of Death” fertig. Sind qualitativ genau so Klasse geworden wie die beiden bis jetzt erschienenen. Wie üblich habe ich ein Kontingent für Euch geordert, das wieder direkt über diese Mailadresse geordert werden kann. Auf Wunsch signiere ich die gerne. Ebenso hab ich eine kleine Anzahl t – shirts ( nur L und XL ) davon vorrätig, sind auch sehr gut geworden und können direkt hier bestellt werden.

Beste Grüsse,

Ralf Hubert / Mekong Delta

The quality is just as great as the two that have been releases so far. As usual, I have ordered a contingent for you, that again can be ordered directly through this Mail address . It will be a pleasure for me to sign them on request. I also have a small number of high quality t – shirts which have been manufactured for this DigiBook in stock. They also can be ordered here directly.

Due to current circumstances in the world the release date has been pushed to May 8th. We’re very sorry for these extra two weeks of waiting, but there’s nothing we can do about it. But… ‘Tales of a Future Past’ is coming!!!

Ralf has issued a press release to inform you of the release date of ‘Tales of a Future Past’.

Deutsch:

Hallo an Alle,

letzte Woche wurde von uns nun auch das Vinyl zur Pressung freigegeben,
dass fertige Doppelalbum
werden wir in 3 – 4 Wochen erhalten. Wir haben uns für 180g / schwarz /
Cover 6mm spine mit schwarzen
Innersleeves und einem 4 farbigen Inlay entschieden. Farbiges Vinyl
haben wir wegen der schlechten
Soundqualität abgelehnt. Die mir bereits vorliegenden CD Muster sind
sehr gut geworden. Da wir jetzt
alle Liefertermine haben, ist der offizielle Release Termin in Absprache
mit dem Vertrieb auf den 24.04.2020
gelegt worden.
Für alle Fans – also für Euch – besteht wieder die Möglichkeit, das
Album als CD oder Vinyl direkt über diese
Mailadresse vorzubestellen, wodurch Ihr es früher bekommt. Da sich die
signierten whitelabel steigender
Beliebtheit erfreuen, habe ich wieder eine limitierte Anzahl für
interessierte unter Euch mitbestellt, könnt
Ihr auch hier bestellen.

Beste Grüsse,

Ralf Hubert / Mekong Delta

Hello to all of you,

last week we released the vinyl for pressing the finished double album,
which we expect to receive in 3-4 weeks. We chose 180g / black / cover
6mm spine with black
innersleeves and a 4-color inlay, colored vinyl have rejected because of
the poor
sound quality. The CD samples – already available to me – have become
very good. Since we are now
have all delivery dates, the official release date has been laid on
April 24, 2020.
For all fans – that is to say for you – there is again the possibility
to directly pre order the album as CD or vinyl
through this mail adress, so you will get it earlier. Since the signed
whitelabels seems to be quite interresting
for some of you, I have ordered a limited number for those of you who
like to get some.
You can order them here too.

Best regards,

Ralf Hubert / Mekong Delta

The mail address Ralf is using for pre-orders is:

Ralf has shared the track list with me and for anyone how wishes to know what strange song titles he has conjured up, here’s the official list:

01. Landscape 1 – Into the Void
02. Mental Entropy
03. A Colony of Liar Men
04. Landscape 2 – Waste Land
05. Mindeater
06. The Hollow Men
07. Landscape 3 – Inharent
08. When all Hope is Gone
09. A Farewell to Eternity
10. Landscape 4 – Pleasant Ground

It’s been a hell of a job. Pretty complex songs, mixing and mastering, getting everyone on board with the final mix, but… it’s done! We will start making the final CD master cut this Friday.

We hope we can release the new album as soon as possible. Just bear with us. It won’t be long now.

The new digibooks (‘Mekong Delta’ and ‘The Music of Erich Zann’) are also available for order from the Musical Hall website. Three other items that might interest you as well can also be found there. Two shirts and a cap.
