New Forms

New Forms is the debut album by the drum and bass act Roni Size / Reprazent and was released in 1997. The double-disc set was the winner of the Mercury Music Prize in 1997, and often cited as their magnum opus.

A companion remix album, Replica, was also released. It includes "Western", the UK b-side of the "Brown Paper Bag" single, along with various remixes of album tracks.

The album went on to be re-recorded as New Forms² in 2008.

Releases

The album was released in various formats with slightly different track lists. In the UK, there was a 2CD version and a single disc edition, and the vinyl was released in both 4LP and 5LP versions. Of the two vinyl versions, the most common pressing is the 4LP version comprising most of the first CD; the 5-LP set includes tracks from the second CD, replacing "Intro" with "Heroes" and "Digital", which are appended to the end. In the US, only the 2CD version was released, though this contained the bonus track of "Electricks".
