Mugsey

and your childish emoticon point is?

Mondo sheep. You should be ashamed of yourselves for buying music that a label dictates to you all for 'collectability', or trying to get a 'full house'

 

Do what you want with your own money. I just think its fucking pathetic and I am entitled to my opinion because thats all it is!

 

Bullshit

Thank fuck! My copy of South Of Heaven is destroyed.

Some of my Tangerine Dream collection. I dont know how that Eno/Mobius LP slipped into the pic.

 

Autechre, far from complete but getting there

 

LP's

 

 

Ep's

 

Biosphere's - 'Substrata' album needs a mention for sure

I've never heard these guys but Mugsey is making me inclined to listen.

 

You know I have good taste.

Lard - The Power Of Lard

Camel - The Snow Goose

Suzanne Vega - Days Of Open Hand

Simple Minds - Sparkle In The Rain

Echo & The Bunnymen - Ocean Rain

"Oh, dammit.  My limited OG copies are now indistinguishable from a broader press that more people can enjoy.  Fuck my life."

 

Like, I get the idea of limited presses or variants being cool to own or whatever.  But at the end of the day, vinyl is more of a music medium than a Beanie Baby.  There are plenty of albums I own that have received nearly-identical represses.  And honestly, sure, it was nice owning them "from the beginning" and before everyone else.  But when they get repressed, I can acknowledge and embrace that it's now the time for other people to hop on board.  And I think that's fine and dandy.  Especially when we're talking about BOC-status albums that are only available for $100 - $300, presently.

 

Furthermore, no one is insisting that hardcore BOC fans - who own the OG discography - have to buy these represses.  That's on you.  I traded a valuable record for my MHTRTC, earlier this year.  I knew that a repress was potentially on the horizon, but I opted to do it anyway.  Am I sour about it?  Absolutely not.  Am I miffed that the repress is going to be nearly identical to the copy I own currently?  Nope.  If anything, I'm stoked that more people will finally be able to get their hands on it.  Especially fans of the band who weren't privy to the vinyl game back when copies initially went up.  Fans who've been waiting.

 

Just my 2¢.

 

I am in 100% agreement. I am glad that new fans will finally be able to get hold of the records that have not exactly been scarce but super inflated price wise for the last ten years.

 

I am pleased I can add to my collection. If you ever heard the press of Trans Canada Highway you will know it sounds like shit. I am hoping they sort this out this time.

 

I am not a 'og press snob' by any means.

I still don't see your point.

 

As a collector of Boards Of Canada records from the beginning it would piss me off hearing about a bunch of represses and them not changing them up a bit so that I couldn't 'enjoy' purchasing something new to add to my collection.

 

Clear enough?

Would we be unable to, otherwise?

 

I dont see your point. I have everything and it will be nice to pick up something I dont have

At least they have given us collectors a couple of things on different colours so we can still enjoy these represses.

 

Looking forward to hearing Geogaddi off new plates too.

 

Shame no Hi Scores as my copy is pretty beat up now.

Kinda pointless doing this as the tapes were always fucked.

they have two full lengths and a split out after this demo. you should definitely check out Geisterstadt, i think it's their best

 

Thanks!

Loved the demo, didn't realise they had an LP out. Is it more of the same?

Long time lurker, first time posting.

 

My system, nothing incredible but has lasted me a long time.
