Help needed about this Toshi album..

ben · **on:** April 02, 2008, 11:02:09 PM

I have found a Toshi album for sale, I believe this is his forthcoming release "Earth in the Dark", on a website where customers can buy from all over the world

http://global.yesasia.com/en/PrdDept.aspx/code-j/section-index/pid-1010879860/

I was just concerned because the release is so expensive.. I thought that this was just a single/EP that was coming out, but from the information in English I could make out (including shipping quantity), it says 4, meaning this is could be a 4 cd package/box set..

Can anyone check this for me because there are some characters in Japanese also which might give more information about the product.

Thanks.

That's not Earth in the Dark, because Earth in the Dark was released on April 1st, and there says: Release Date: April 19, 2008. I don't know, I don't trust YesAsia actually, the only thing that has to do with that date it's a concert Toshi's gonna have, says his official site.

Hm... couldn't find any explanation about the actual product so I checked back Toshi's homepage and the prize there. That is, in Japan that maxi single costs 2000 Yen... guess YesAsia is a bit weird in that case... can't see that there's anything written about a box set. If I was you I'd wait a bit or have a look at other places to check out if the prize is really correct... I mean 2000 Yen and 40 $... that's a BIG difference... though for a maxi single 2000 isn't cheap either

It actually costs 1,500 and I think it's a good price, but the 2000yen thing is because the Limited Edition will be autographed by Toshi, and when those are sell out, the cost will be reduced to the original price.

Thanks for your responses, but this is the only website I could find to buy it outside from Japan or USA. It is definitely a 4CD package or a box set or something like that.

I don't suppose there is anyone out there who has access to buy a copy of the single, particularly the autographed one, on my behalf to send to me in Australia, and of course I will pay back for it in full either with International Money Order or PAYPAL..

The only 4CD box I know about and is released sometime around now is the Healing Best Album, with the little baby and maps on the top. It is on Toshi's official web page in section "music" under the Earth in the dark single

I just wanted to let you know ben, that my single I bought through the site I told you DID come with the autograph apart in a postcard

That's no neat. I'm planning to buy it too...

Radical Pan · **Reply #9 on:** April 15, 2008, 07:53:46 AM

Y'know I think it depends of where you buy it, because apparently you can only get the CD with 6 tracks and the DVD in a physical store in Japan, but if you buy it via Toshi Store in internet (like me), you'll get the CD with 4 tracks, no DVD and an autographed postcard.
Another way of getting the 6 tracks is via CD Baby, buying mp3.

That's a real dilemma... :?

Pan, if you do it, don't post the link here... It's ok to PM it or post in the sharing forum, but not in the public area.

Radical Pan · **Reply #13 on:** April 16, 2008, 12:15:45 AM

Btw apparently the physical version of the one that has 6 tracks and the DVD could be bought at the Tokyo Dome 3 Days.

I already uploaded the single, both versions, so please click on the links of my signature to download it.

And don't worry Hypno, I know your rules about sharing

Really enjoying Earth in the dark , all the versions are quality!

Edside · **Reply #17 on:** April 16, 2008, 02:58:29 PM

Does the DVD include the videoclip of the song? :?

denx · **Reply #18 on:** April 16, 2008, 03:26:32 PM

upload somewhere else pls, thanks

ben · **Reply #19 on:** April 18, 2008, 12:03:00 AM

Yeah, I was hoping to get the autographed version; someone checked out the website for me and said you can't buy the autographed version to ship overseas.. That is a shame. I might just buy the standard version from cdjapan or something like that.

Radical Pan, thanks for sharing the music though anyway : )
