My copy of Risc vs. Reward doesn't have any vinyl-ish surface noise
between tracks. The Hidden Camera (Static Mix) begins and ends with vinyl
noise--I assumed this was intentional--and a few individual drum samples
in Ni-Ten... and The Fifth Column have a little crackle to them, but
otherwise it should be clean.                                                J
