Nosound signed with the label with an agreement to re-release Lightdark with a special second CD titled Clouds (previously only available for download) which includes an additional track unavailable on the download version. The CD also included a new booklet of photos and a promo video that were not available on the original release.

Also for the 2013 release, a heavyweight (180g) double-vinyl version of the album was produced. Early orders included a free A4 signed print
