Shitty Rambo Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 So 125 on opaque green? rtw88 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dantheriver Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 So 125 on opaque green? Most of the "starbursts" that people have been doing have turned out pretty well. Its the damn swirls with one color that is way more powerful than the other that get screwed up. Definitely gonna pick this up though.

cwhitmuzik Posted August 28, 2013 Author Share Posted August 28, 2013 We'll see, State Lines turned out pretty well but Dikembe was all fucked up. I talked to Chuck and a lot of the starbursts they are trying now are tests to see what goes well together so they can do it better in the future. So for all the fucked up ones now there should be fewer in the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think doing the starburst on a 7" is already pushing it, but then they used red as the base with black and white, should've known how that one would come out.

White works as a base often, since the other colors blend in pretty well. Guess we'll see. Guess we'll see a range of outcomes just like State Lines did.

serum7 Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 The State Lines LP looked awesome. I don't really care what this looks like though, I just want to hear it. These are good dudes, Max is the best, and thanks to Steve I know that an earwig has two penises. I'm going to have to control myself from ordering all 4, plus a shirt, plus another Meridian LP with this. Mid-September on the pre-order according to Tiny Engines though.

So for all the fucked up ones now there should be fewer in the future. Yeah, it's really been a lot of trial and error ... and it's a new process for Rainbo as well, so they haven't been able to give us that much feedback or advice. You have to consider that when you're mixing three different colors, they'll all react with one another in different, unique ways. So far, it seems like we get the best results when we start with a white base as the main color and then throw in two other colors as the "starburst." All the ones we've done for LPs has turned out pretty good, especially for State Lines and the Run Forever repress. 7-inches are another story, and after an extensive talk with our rep, we decided that it might be best to avoid starburst on those. However, we took a chance with the Dikembe "Chicago Bowls" and Tigers Jaw "Spirit Desire" represses and they actually look pretty sweet. The starburst on the original pressing of Bowls and Restorations' A/B was a disaster and looked nothing like what we ordered. To Rainbo's credit, they didn't charge us any extra for those. In summation, SIGNALZ MIDWEZT RULZ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

serum7 Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 Bump. This may just be my AOTY. Completely exceeds any expectations I had for it. I may just make the trek up to Cleveland for a release show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwhitmuzik Posted September 6, 2013 Author Share Posted September 6, 2013 So bummed that some press guy had to leak it. Which I'm assuming happened because how else would that same 320 copy leak?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serum7 Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 Not sure, I heard it from my friend who got a legit press copy. He didn't give me a copy though, he's always respectful of that relationship which is cool with me. I didn't know it had full on leaked.

Yeah, I know press copies came yesterday or the night before (took one half assed listen, can't really make a judgment yet) and I saw one online yesterday. big bummer.

dantheriver Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 TE has had bad luck with real early leaks lately. This hasn't made it to any of the non super exclusive sites yet, cause I can't find it. I'll be keeping my eyes peeled though, stoked on the few early comments here.
