Judging by the comp's popularity, I'd expect a repress to happen! Just like Even a Tree Can Shed Tears. There are so many releases I'm skipping out on rn because I need to catch up with my credit card bill. Hope you get it eventually!

I'd actually like for this to get a repress.

Weird, I was reading this thread and started thinking about this album a split second before I scrolled to your post.
I think Blink is pure distilled peaceful happiness. I played it for my wife recently and she said "It's like holding your baby for the first time, or a happy childhood memory."

It’s funny you mention that. I have a memory of the first time my wife left me alone with my son listening to this record sitting at the table eating lunch. Then packing up to go to the park.

It was a download subscription when I was on it. They would promote a lot of unusual stuff. When you had a couple of credits left over at the end I would always take a chance on something new.

Is this getting a U.S. repress?
Saw these records at a fair trade a few months ago and totally forgot about it :
V/A - Saigon Supersound Vol. 1 & Vol. 2
What started as an idea 5 years ago now becomes reality with the release of SAIGON SUPERSOUND Vol.1, compiled by Jan Hagenkötter. A compilation about the story of a musical era in Vietnam that was almost lost, made of tracks from 1965 to 1975, the so-called “Golden Music” period in the south of Vietnam, where – under difficult circumstances – a lively pop culture had developed. This period is characterized by the fusion of Vietnamese music with western pop music. The compilation includes some tunes reissued for the very first time since they´ve been released originally. With the release of Saigon Supersound Vol. 1 on double gatefold vinyl and cd in May 2017 the story of this nearly unknown music will be reissued.
an Hagenkötter a music-lover and DJ who is also the mind behind the renowned music publishing company and record label INFRACom!, relocated to Saigon in 2012. In co-operation with the Vietnam based dOSe crew, Jan organized parties and shows, inviting guest and friends like DJ Spinna, Jazzanova, Alice Russell and many other artists. During this year as he was spinning tunes in Saigon and other parts of South East Asia the idea for this project was born. In 2013 Jan returned to Germany but has been swinging back and forth between Saigon and Frankfurt ever since.
In the following years he began to research and collect more seriously. He bought vinyl singles from around the world, often several copies of the same release, just to restore or rather “rebuild” one good recording from several sources. With the help of friends based in Saigon, he was able to navigate an almost impenetrable jungle of music websites. Thanks to invaluable support and translation assistance from Vietnamese friends, he came into contact with several collectors. The best recordings from this treasure hunt were then retouched, refined and remastered in the studio for this release.
Besides this amazing project, Vietnamese producers like Maqman from Saigon, DJ Yellow from Paris and others who also share roots in Vietnam have already started to work on edits and re-works of songs featured on Saigon Supersound Vol. 1. These will be released in a next step....the mission is not completed....it just started!

I wouldn't know unfortunately. I ordered mine from CD Japan (which I highly recommend) if you don't mind extra for shipping I'd recommend trying their. They also have their debut.

I saw this at all the record stores in Japan when we were there but didn't know what it was until shortly after we got home. I've wanted a copy ever since.
