    i don't have the hr pressing so couldn't really compare sorry. 
     
    it took them at least 3 weeks after the order date to ship it out, but it eventually turned up. But then again no guarantees for the same outcome.

    Gumbo72203 got a reaction from drds89 in PO (now) - Sunlight Ascending "Echos in Green"   
    For over a decade now, Michigan’s Sunlight Ascending have been perfecting their brand of epic, instrumental post-rock. At the start of the pandemic, the band traveled to Toronto to record “Echos in Green”, a beautiful, cinematic track that showcases their mastery of dynamics and lush instrumentation. This is their first new studio material in roughly 5 years, as members have recently been playing with Hollow Earth (Good Fight Music), The End of the Ocean (Equal Vision Records), and Wounded Touch (Bitter Melody Records).
     
    This release will be limited to 200 copies (100 on transparent yellow, 100 on opaque green) with a screen-printed B side.
    ***This is a pre-order, records are expected to begin shipping in mid-late February
     
    You can pre-order the limited 7" via Dropping Bombs, along with our remastered LP "All Memories, All At Once". Posters and shirts are available as well.  Also available on Bandcamp.  The song will be available on all streaming platforms (Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, etc.) on Friday. And there's a lot more coming next year!

    @Sad Heart CJ from A Thousand Arms said he would love to have them on board, if they wish to go with an indie label that has their hearts in the right place.

    A couple of things:
    - Most importantly, Caspian owns the rights to their music. So thankfully they didn’t sign them over to D.O. with this pressing. 
    - They did this as a trial, and odds are won’t be using them again for another press. 
    - They’re aware of the IG rant and are pretty embarrassed and don’t want that reflecting on them, so things are probably gonna change next go around. 
    - I spoke with them about a few other things / more in depth about Brent. Don’t be too worried. 
    - New Caspian is in the works. As well as other info I can’t share. 
     
    The only reason they didn’t have TC do their represses is cause it would have been a little too expensive through them. Only went with Brent cause he offered to repress it and wasn’t asking for the right to their music, which is fair. 
     
    Also, I’m in the process of finding out runs sizes. Will post here and everywhere and then some more just to piss off Brent when I get said info.

    Gumbo72203 got a reaction from thebilljim in Pre-amp question.   
    Yes, all record players need a pre-amp.  The signal coming from the stylus is very low, so there needs to be a step-up transformer to get the voltage to a level that the power amplifier can use to push out to the speakers. 

    Turntable -> Pre-amp -> Power amp -> Speakers is the order of things. 
     
    Your turntable is something that should be upgraded as soon as possible, if I'm looking at the correct thing on Amazon.  The reason being that many of these extreme budget entry players can damage your records. 

    U-turn and Pro-ject have many turntables for a few hundred that will be a good start.  If you want to really get a good upgrade to last you a while, this one will do very well:  https://upscaleaudio.com/products/pro-ject-debut-carbon-esprit-dc
     
    Pair that with a Schiit Mani pre-amp, and you'll be set to go for a long time.

    Ended up dropping $200+ on their Black Friday sale.  And it already shipped.  Stoked to get my first taste of A1KA.
     
    Had no idea Beware of Safety's Mabon was pressed. Man, I forgot how good they are.  Going to break out their discography this week.

    Gumbo72203 reacted to Derek™ in Post-VC: Official Post-Rock/Post-Metal Discussion v.2.0   
    Completely unrelated but last night I had a dream that some therapist and her legal team were suing a handful of VCers for causing emotional trauma to Gumbo.  She had a history of all the shit-posting and jabbing that myself and several others have given him over the last few years.  We were expected to take the stand and defend said posts.  It was something else.

    Yah, seems like someone put "remastered" on the 2nd press on Discogs, even though it's the 3rd press for the 10yr anniversary that is remastered. That mistake was throwing us both off. Haha. I'm gonna spin it later to compare to the comp. version and the 3rd version. I wish I could see them in a spectrum viewer to test. It's all very curious. 
     
    I fixed it on Discogs. Looks like the “remastered” tag was added 2 years ago for some reason.

    The nice thing about Dark Ops’ test presses is that they’re entirely mint and unplayed.

    So Dunk is pressing Beware of Safety's "Mabon" album, which has never been pressed before.  I guess it's 5 years old.  Listening now, it's pretty good.  Definitely different, these guys don't follow the standard formula at all. 

    You may enjoy.

    I'm holding out for A1KA.  I'm sure if you have an old code it may still work, I'm not sure.  Leech said about 25 copies will probably get sent but that hasn't been finalized.  I'm not sure they're really used to working in this sort of manner haha.  But he assured me, there will be copies coming over here. 

    I think it's around $50 from bandcamp, yeah.
