Let us know if you receive it today. This whole thing is super confusing

Seems bol now has it as a pre-order despite being supposedly released today. I'm expecting it to potentially slip two weeks as well.

Yes, it is. I got an order confirmation and a tracking number. The cancel-order button is greyed out for the other CD I ordered but I can still cancel Radiophonie 10 so I don't think they will deliver it.

bol.com is total mess, but we already knew that:

That's why I believe the safest bet is to order from France (or "was", as amazon.fr deleted the listing and FNAC lists "out of stock")

No Radiophonie 10 in my parcel.

Here you can see track times:

CD 1 is roughly the same as Radiophonie 9, which affirms Jote's theory. The other 3 CDs have a mix of short and long tracks too (the longest being Hexagone 622, which is 5:01).

It also confirms that the excess silence at the end of tracks 1-99 was trimmed, which explains different running times of CD1 and vol. 9.

This tracklist also contains the odd ordering on CD2: 100, 111, 122, 133, 120, 121, 122, 123, 124, 125 (not only is the order incorrect, 122 is duplicated with two different track durations: 01:50 and 04:16)

I think 122 and 133 should be 112 and 113 and that's a typo. That explains why 122 is listed two times.

That makes sense, although I fear that this is the actual tracklist listed in the album and we'll never know for sure.

bol.com updated their listing from "3.07" to "niet leverbaar" (not available).

I wonder what's happening, seems like the publisher is sending mixed messages to the retailers Several of them (FNAC, bol, Plato), list it as "not available", amazon.fr deleted the listing altogether... WTF

Yeah, it's not looking good. For now JPC.de is still sticking with a July 20 release date, though

Well, sounds-venlo, bol.com, Plato are all sticking to July 3rd... Imusic.dk, wowhd, hmv.co.jp, FNAC are still sticking to 10th (even though it's no longer available to order at FNAC. My order hasn't been canceled though. Maybe they just ran out of the allocated copies?)

And there's nobody to ask. If it was Sony/Aero we'd probably have more info at this point.

I hate this.

Geez - a shame how these releases never seem to be handled properly these days

(That said, if someone manages to get a copy of this release even if it officially got cancelled in the end, that'd be like a repeat of the Concerts in China DVD instance from 2008)

Considering it's 2020... All part of the course

Last night I had a dream about a confused employee in a warehouse somewhere the north-east of France. He was carrying a a big pile of of more than 800 order forms from more than 300 distribution centers around the world while there are only four boxes containing 500 CD's in total. He "escalated" the problem to his manager.
