Evoke

Wow. So edgy in here you could cut yourself. 

Hi again. The app has now been updated to 1.4.4 with the following changes: 
 Can now view others inventories. Screenshot: http://imgur.com/JCk061r.png  Added Spotify links to tracks and artists. Screenshots: http://imgur.com/CTsgBeO.png & http://imgur.com/bhBSAmX.png  Fixed the search suggestions not showing.  You can now filter collection, wantlist & master releases with multiple keywords. Screenshot: http://imgur.com/SPqeCQS.png  Improved adding to collection from search results.  Fixed bug in showing others collection/wantlists.  Search results now also include Discogs users. Screenshot: http://imgur.com/K5J9lYb.png  Improved synchronizing stability.  Improved error logging to help track bugs.  More stability improvements and small fixes. Let me know if you're having any problems or got any questions, and I'll be happy to help. 

So much speculation on here:

* The Perturbator vinyl craze has died down.

Oh it has?  I didn't even mention this was live anywhere, and this was his biggest launch ever.

* $13 is too much to ship within the USA.

I am located in Helsinki Finland, and I have to maintain two warehouses and also have to pay someone to ship for me in USA - I think that's a pretty small price to pay because paying to ship to you from Finland would probably be 40+ EUR.

* $30 is too much to ship within Europe.

Well as far as I know, shipping a ~2kg package within Europe from almost any other country besides Germany will run you a pretty penny.

Thank you to everyone who supported thus far!

Glad to see Darjeeling Limited on there, too, since there hasn't been any news on that Wes Anderson box from ABKCO.

ISIS (the band) vinyl repress madness continues with Panopticon now getting the royal treatment, remastered audio, revamped printwork and all! This is the first full-length we ever worked with the band on, almost 10-years ago to the date (!), and it feels great to have it in print and available all these years later.
This time around the ante has been upped with Mika Jussila of Finnvox Studios’ brilliant audio remastering, who was also responsible for the recent Oceanic remastering as well (previously erroneously credited by us to James Plotkin, who also does great work).
Aaron Turner’s iconic layout has also received a tune-up, with uncoated printed-innersleeves housed within a super high-gloss, tip-on heavyweight gatefold jacket.
2000 copies of this beautiful latest pressing were made: 200 on clear/translucent blue, 500 on clear/translucent orange and 1300 on black vinyl. Panopticon is in-house now and available to order from the Robotic Empire – Online Store.

I already have the Agaetis Byrjun repress. But I would love to pick up ( ) which is my favorite Sigur Ros album

Hi, so I was directed here by someone who ordered a zelda vinyl (I am the guy who makes them) and I guess I should explain myself a bit as there seems to be some mystery about what Im doing (which is pretty funny I think).
 
Anyway, so technically I am an artist by trade (you can see stuff I make on my instagram if you're bored http://instagram.com/unfortunateface/ I have collected records for the last 15 years (I have another instagram just for records too  http://instagram.com/thevinylsolution/  and last summer I had a bunch of extra money so I decided to do something Ive wanted to do for a long time, which was press my own record. I personally feel super strongly about video game music being treated as a legitimate artform that deserves respect that, for the most part, it doesnt recieve on a large scale even though it is probably one of the most influential modern genres of music there is (ex: if you have listened to hip hop at any point in the past two decades, it is literally IMPOSSIBLE for you not to have heard a sample taken from a video game http://www.spin.com/gallery/50-rap-songs-based-on-video-game-samples/). I collect pretty much any video game related vinyl I can find but the problem is there are both crazy rare and generally expensive and also very limited in scope of titles available. I contacted 6 different game companies trying to buy a license to make soundtracks of their games and was denied by all of them on the basis which essentially the same answer each time, which was that it was "not a market they see much demand for". 
So then I basically said "fuck it", and I did it anyway, and pressed what I think is one of the seminal game soundtracks of all time "Mega Man 2". Since it was a bootleg, I did the cover as a meta tribute to 70s record bootlegs. I hand silk screened all the covers myself based on my own design, as I wanted them to be sort of functional art pieces as well. I also knew from the start of this I wanted to make these releases celebrate the actual composers that made the music as well, so the composers name is right next to the title on the front cover. They sold out almost immediately. The reaction was so intense that I started a new pressing of The Legend of Zelda 1 & 2 OST (with tracks from zelda 3 and OOT as well) and this time paid extra to make everything look legit (full color front and back cover and labels, on gold vinyl) as I want all future releases to be proof of concept examples to show all these backwards game companies that dont think there is a market for vinyl, that not only is there a giant one, but I want to do the design of everything with more care than most giant corporations would even care to, as I am both a huge record collector and a huge video game fan, and I make these as some I personally would want in my own collection, not just a cash grab for people's money. This has become a labor of love for me and one of the most personally fulfilling things Ive done and I really hope I can continue doing it and that at some point one of these stupid companies will let me buy legit licensing so more people can enjoy them. 
 
So here are all the releases Ive done so far and the ones I am making:
 
001 - MEGA MAN 2 (sold out)
002 - THE LEGEND OF ZELDA (just released)
003 - CASTLEVANIA (in production, contains full OSTs of CV 1 & 2, plus selected tracks from CV 3 & 4)
004 - NES GREATEST HITS VOL 1 (in production, contains 25 tracks of some of what I think are the best NES music tracks of all time)
005 - POKEMON RED & BLUE OST (being designed and mastered now, will go into production in Jan.)
006 - EARTHBOUND (has been mastered, being designed, will be the first 2lp release on 180gram vinyl, production in Mar)
007 - MEGA MAN 3 (had been mastered, will be designed and in production in Mar, in talks to secure legit licensing for this hopefully)
 
future presses I want to make are:
Metroid & Super Metroid OSTs 
Final Fantasy IV & VI OSTs
Ninja Gaiden NES trilogy OST
Chrono Trigger OST
Silent Hill OST
Shadow of the Colossus OST
Sonic 3 OST (with michael jackson inspired cover as he actually wrote the music for the game)
Sega Genesis Greatest Hits 
etc
 
I master everything directly from NSF, SPC and similar uncompressed original audio files and I hand make every aspect of the design myself from scratch (no boring stock images are ever used or ever will be used). I kind of want to go for a criterion collection vibe, quality wise. 
 
Anyway, so thats everything I think. Hope this clears up some mystery a bit and Ill probably be starting a email list to notify of future releases soon, so any of this sounds interesting to you, just let me know and I can put you on it. You will only be emailed when a record is announced or ready for sale. 
 
Also if someone wanted to do their own game soundtrack record, I would help design art for it for free, and help with the mastering as well. I would love to inspire other people to do this and there are so many games I would love to see soundtracks for as well
