I cannot believe Simon/Twisted completely fucked American fans like this. This was an unannounced 2 am release here -- I woke up at 6:30am and both variants were already sold out. I've been waiting for a repress for years  😐

They've  dropped the ball on every one of these represses. Maybe there's some chance of another pressing since it sold so well/fast, but if not, they've basically lost a fan. 

It took me by surprise too and I'm in the UK.

Isn't it more usual to release at 6pm GMT? I was expecting it to be release at that time.

I missed out on the red edition, sadly... But I got the black edition.

that's super shitty to hear.  Do you think they were targeting those specifically?  Or was it just coincidence?

Also, have any of you heard whether Are You Shongled will ever get another repress?  900 copies is all i'm seeing... that's ridiculous!  They could have moved 3k.  Discogs prices are shitty too...  grrr!

They were all on my shelf so I just think they grabbed what they could..

Probably some smack head wankers.... Grr.

The prices on Scalpcogs are ruddy awful. The odd thing about it is that they won't sell for those prices anyway, so what's the ruddy point?

That is horrible!! hope you can 'clean' your house so you can once again feel 'at home' and find security and comfort at your place.

Wish you all the best in getting over this. And also in rebuilding your collection.

 

 

I'm trying, thanks. 

I think it's starting to feel like home again. I use my craft and my crystals to shake the room up a bit. It's feeling more positive, less intrusive now.

I'd be absolutely devastated if I lost my music collection... terrible to hear that happened, Pure Phase Girl. 😔

I'm devastated still. To know what they wanted in terms of things they could carry is something I'm trying to shake off. 

They didn't take my amp, speakers or my turntable because they are all too heavy. I had to get two strapping men in to place my turntable and amp. And my speakers are like wardrobes.

I'm happy they didn't just wreck anything, just took what they could carry. I lost my dac, preamp and phono amp along with other personal things. 

Thank you all for understanding.

My shpongle collection were my jewels. I can't see me affording them all again.

Thanks...

Unfortunately not, records wasn't insured in the contents for some reason. I didn't know this as contents is contents to me. They said CD's could have been included but not vinyl??? I complained and I got a small amount back in kind but no way near enough.

The prices of the re-issues are sky high now so I doubt I could afford them again. I was only missing the 1st reissue.

After my home was broken in to, this will be the start of my Shpongle collection.... I've lost all of the re-issues along with most of my collection and kit.

So, I'm looking to buy them again as much as I can afford. I'm totally gutted. 

Thanks, Tim and everyone. 

But there is a pre order of a new release for either the 31st of May or the 12th of July. 

Acoustic sounds have this, also some other places on the net.

It says its a UK exclusive but being in the UK I've not seen any places selling it.

Where on discogs have you seen this, Tim?

I did... sent them 3 emails.... no reply.

Hi all.

There is a new repress of this but the details from little indian are vague.

Does anyone know any details? Hope it's the original version and not the remixed one.

Also finding it hard to find it. Little indian has one in there shop but I'm not sure if that's the 2016 remix version... They have nothing on the website.

Thanks

Jo

Well, I'm sorry chaps but after numerous emails to Acoustic Sounds I have to say from my experience:

DO NOT BUY FROM THEM

They are not worth the hassle.

Useless customer support, useless international purchasing support. Useless website.

lol... sounds like a bargain.

Seriously though, if this doesn't meet my expectations it's going back.

Anyone know how many are left? 

I can't see these flying off the shelf at that price though. 

Ordered.... That was expensive. 

Looks like a nice package though so I hope it will be worth it. 

Hope the pressing will be good too. 

I'm in the UK so email is preferred and should be fine.

I'm just not getting through. I've now sent 5 emails and only had 2 replies to which have not answered my question and even though I've replied they have not been answered to.

Are they a reputable company?

Is there anywhere else I can buy this from which I'm missing out on?

Does anyone have any info on the box set at all?

I've been trying to get in touch with Accoustic Sounds but I've not had a reply which I think is awful service.

Does anyone have an open communication line to them?

Would anyone have a spare mono pressing of this they would wish to sell to me?

Unfortunately not... I opened the box and was so disappointed I just sealed it up and sent it back. 

Wish I had taken some now. 

For that amount of money it wasn't the best. And they were really scraping the barrel mensioning the padded box on the listing like it was something to keep.

I sent mine back. The shrink was so tight it bent the spine. I haven't bothered getting a replacement. 

well, it's not selling anywhere near as quickly as the black.

It says it comes in a padded box... anyone know what that would look like?

Ordered! YAY!

Lookin' great.... But, wow... that's expensive.

512 left!

It's lovely to see it so well made. I've just got to get the previous remaster now as I missed that, but wow... they are expensive.

It's arrived And it's a beaut.

Weirdly, I've just had a dispatch email from Twisted... LOL

Wonder if they are looking at this thread?
