That would be B12CD1, Redcell:Stasis with the tracks of Redcell's
B1208 12" and Stasis' B1211 12" plus 6 bonus tracks not found on vinyl.
The CD is from 1993, limited to 1500 copies.
B1209, Various: Prelude Pt1 was originally released as a limited
edition cassette (400 copies) and later released on CD (500 copies) due
to high demand.
Both of the above seem to be extremely hard to find, but I concur with
Lance, they are really worth the money.
But of course, the best tracks are still on the early B12 vinyl
releases, like B1202, a 2001 12" and B1203, As One:Future/Past:Zee# 12".
B1201 (with the omission of Fear of Expression) and B1206 (with the
omission of Boundries) were released on WARPLP/CD9, Electro-Soma with
some additional tracks.
The second B12 album on WARP, Time Tourist, featured tracks from B1214.1
(Redcell: Infinite Lites), B1210 (Cmetric: DB5), B1209 (Cektion)...
Ah. The joys of research.
