Drone working again

Several months ago (Oct-November?), Steven Wilson released a new piece as part of his Bass Communion solo project.  The 20-minute 'Droneworks 6' was the best since 1999's Bass Communion II, in my opinion.  It was released on the independent Twenty Hertz label, but for unspecified reasons was withdrawn in December, with a promise that it would return on SW's own Headphone Dust label in 2005.

That has now happened. From March, it's available again officially, on a 'produced-on-demand' basis (i.e. not a limited edition, surprisingly!), exclusively from Headphone Dust.
