ARRIVAL DVD+BluRay Release Postponed

Nov 5, 2013
by   
Friends and fans, we regret to inform you that we have had to delay the November 7th release date for ARRIVAL. The delay has been caused by a music licensing issue that was unexpected and beyond our control. Obviously this is not an ideal situation, but it is unfortunately one of the realities of properly licensing music for our films.

We all know that music can make or break a film segment. For ARRIVAL we have one of the best soundtracks we’ve ever put together. Finding a quality track that fits perfectly with the footage and vibe of the segment takes time. Sure we could have slapped a mediocre track in there and stuck with our original release date, but quality is not something we were willing to sacrifice for this film.

We are moving mountains to get the film ready for release as soon as possible. Right now we are looking at a new date at the end of November. Thank you for your understanding and patience. Feel free to contact us if you have any questions.

 I Completely understand the whole music licensing issues, had to deal with that BS myself for my snowmobiling movie. Because you guys are not willing to settle with a sub par song just to release the video on time I'm for sure going to purchase a video.

 The wait will be worth it in the end! I'm sure everyone understands how much hard work goes into a project like this and we all know how long it can take to clear music. Quality stands out for this film and I'm sure this won't set it back. Best of luck and can't wait to watch it!

 I couldn't be disappointed as Coastel Crew are such a good bunch, it would be hard to get annoyed about it At least Ive seen it online, its worse when your hanging to watching something you haven't seen

 Good luck with the licensing gentlemen. Based on the behind the scenes segments, you guys have been working real hard on the film and it's understandable that you want it perfect.

 i fully appreciate the dedication to the soundtrack, obviously the video is gonna be just as gnarley no matter what, but the soundtrack can really take it to the next level!

 Saw the premiere, one of the most banger movies and the sickest soundtrack too make sure to have surround sound HQ speakers for your first time viewing

 I would agree that music can make or break a video or even just a Rider's segment in a video. So take note future SuperStars, if you have the skills and want to be in a video, don't let some Hack edit your hard work to shitty music or country music. This goes out to all the people behind the scenes as well, such as trail builders, camera men etc, you all have so much creativity and talent to let go to waste, do to poor music.

 Im pretty sure you can make a pretty damn good edit even to country music, I might just have to prove you wrong on that one Wink . I get what your saying though. A good editor can make even a bad rider look pretty good but, it deosn't always work the same way around. You throw a good editor and a good rider together into the mix and you end up with a pot of steamy goodness Wink .

 and by good editor i mean someone that can pick a good song to match the feeling and riding of the video

 got to see this in London at the cinema in Leicester Square on Friday night last week thanks to Specialized Bikes

we saw the "making of" segements about 45 minutes and then the film itself

awesome seeing it on a big screen, really enjoyed the action, music and editing, especially the Whistler section as I've not been there for several seasons and realized how much I missed that riding..

 I don't understand why you wouldn't want your music in a coastal crew movie

 I completely agree. I would say 90% of the music I buy is a direct result of hearing it in a bike video/movie
