Postman dropped off two packages yesterday, sandwiched in between them was a cd mailer that was supposed to go to the UK (from NY). So basically somewhere along the system this cd has stuck to my vinyl from the US, traveled to Adelaide, Aus, got sandwiched between my vinyl and another package from the UK, and delivered to my door. Going to send it to the guy in the UK this week with a little note describing its travels.

I just picked up a Modi/Magni Schiit Stack and my god does it make my tunes sing. Have used with my Audio Technica AD1000x and AKG K701's, tis a world of difference. Surprised considering these are Schiit's base models *edit* Totally would take the setup above though haha

I burning in a pair of K701's atm, they are very amp picky but they sound great. Falling in love with AKG Cans On the recent purchases topic I just built a whole new PC and instead of on board sound I splashed out on a Creative Soundblaster ZX and my god is it heavenly.

I have actually offered it up for free on my facebook, no takers as yet. The only problem is my location (Australia) so depending on shipping you may only be saving a few dollars, or perhaps be paying even more than if you ordered directly from Anticon. I just did a quick calculation and itd be $14 w/o tracking and $20 with - the vinyl is $12 from anticon + $6 shipping lol if you want it still i'll throw in a surprise 7"

Anticon shipped me two copies of this, in separate packages. oops. Beautiful colour on this one

This album is still up there with my fave of the year

Began reading the book last night - love this style of writing. Same feeling when I first read the GC book, totally engrossed

I hope this happens would be hilarious

Green arrived the other day, package is awesome

Thanks for the advice

I've been eyeing off this clear acrylic mat of late - would look pretty awesome on my regas glass platter, accentuating the transparent color records I have http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/NEW-CLEAR-Acrylic-Perspex-Turntable-Mat-Rega-Linn-Avid-Pro-Ject-VPI-Music-Hall-/400439158319

True that their shipping to Aus is fantastic and always prompt

Yeah I pay about that for a regular record shipped to Aus anyway, so if they are nice pressings - with abbatoir blues being in the cloth bound like the cd then i'd be super happy with that

Damn that Violence track is so good. pre ordered immediately

Stream: http://hypem.com/premiere/sea+oleena Pre-order: http://lefserecords.limitedrun.com/products/531890-sea-oleena-shallow-pre-order Fantastic mix of modern classical and ambient sounds throughout - just fucking beautiful. Her voice is intoxicating and the compositions are compelling.

Yeah would have to agree there, though the gold variant is pretty awesome.

Would love a new Jacaszek album... glimmer was beautiful

It is a different take on ambient, using his voice like that. Gonna take me a while to dig deep into his older stuff... here goes

Just gonna leave this here https://soundcloud.com/recitalprogram/ian-william-criag-on-the-reach

Awesome, I still haven't made time to sit and read the accompanying book, but the music has been regularly on the turntable

yep have preordered abbatoir blues From the amazon page

Fuck yes!

Hi all, just a heads up this record has found a home - positive vibes all round

I have two copies of this, after i ended up just buying the reissue box set. Whoever wants it all you have to do is cover postage. It is one of the more recent reissues CAVEAT I live in Australia, so probs only a decent deal if you are this side of the globe...
