Interesting that Nadja is a Transmission release now. Most people thought it would be from Radiance with the NAD clue and it got pushed back to 2027. That leaves two clues for this year unaccounted for. RC2 is obviously Radical Japan 2 but I forgot the other one.

Aren’t we still waiting on MH from last year?

"MV" is forthcoming, and yes "MH" I don't believe was ever revealed
Nadja switching to Transmission may be a result of the Radiance schedule being full

Transmission's mission focuses on "left-of-the-dial cult classics," and that's a pretty spot-on description of Nadja. Also, Transmission is curated by Paul Martinovich, right? Not Fran. So it's not a case of shunting things off to a sub label. It's its own thing.

But also, Arbelos worked on the restoration so why aren't they the Radiance-adjacent label putting it out?

Is Arbelos UK still a going concern? Have they put anything out through Radiance other than Life is Cheap… but Toilet Paper is Expensive?
