apirk Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 Didn’t he sell Astronaut and Electra in like 5 waves of releases? Probably the best way for a one man operation to work, probably regretting doing this at all based on based on emails and messages he is probably getting holyvacantsholyhell 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buddha4281 Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 Missed out on the first go but was able to nab one this time. Just a regular version. Print is nice but I'm still feeling the holiday financially. Maybe prints will go up at a later time but if not it's okay with me. holyvacantsholyhell 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One man, who owns and operates his own analog recording studio in 2018, has retained the license to a major label flop of a record (not talking shit, they didn't do well on a mainstream level, pretty sure they never recouped on Astronaut) that he recorded 20 years ago, made a new analog mix, got it cut to lacquer and pressed to vinyl in what seems like a pretty huge quantity and is taking orders from a cult fanbase and is handling each and every order personally, on his own and the final product has been at least 3 years in the making. Now normally I would bitch at this price for this particular product but when you consider the scope of the undertaking and the lack of manpower, I can't really complain. Let's try not to lose perspective. poweredbytrust, highfives, danbass and 4 others 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But this is a MAJOR function of Vinyl Collective! And we understand what this all entails, MT can't be lauded enough and he knew it would be one of those "headaches either way you do this." Do it this way, few happy people up front, easier paper trail, but there will be many impatient whiners until the frothing /foaming get their records... vs. sell them all at once, a few happy people get their records first, as he sorts the Paypal tidal wave, then many impatient/whiners wait wait wait with their money tied up for up to a year or more until they get their copy.

And this is another MAJOR function of Vinyl Collective: My record has arrived! and this is what happened to the jacket, what the real version looks like vs mock ups and what it sounds like. Thank you for playing, and feeding the beast Now you can be done with this thread (click "unfollow"). MT can defend himself. You can have one more post here, then you're trolling. j/k See you on page 35 when mine gets here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hyperg1ant Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 (edited) I just called to exile on main st (matt talbott store) and got a copy with the jay ryan print (65 usd shipped on paypal) and in a few minutes they send me a tracking number to my email. If anyone missed a copy today, you should try this! Edited December 28, 2018 by hyperg1ant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DiscoJon Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 Why isn't this being re-released through a label like "You'd Prefer an Astronaut" was? Just not enough demand? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just not enough demand? YPAA wasn’t released in conjunction with the band. SRC licensed it directly from the label and cut the band out of it. Seems like Matt did the licensing from the label this time instead of letting some other company steal money from him and his band mates. tape 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

holyvacantsholyhell Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 He doesn’t need to do jack shit, holy hell. I’m not sure you appreciate how overwhelming orders for records can be and he’s sitting on thousands. I get overwhelmed when I make half a dozen sales at once, and this is multiple times that multiple times over. I also get that I scored a copy and the people having tantrums didn’t yet, but he keeps reassuring us there’s plenty of records and... idk, be better and be faster if you’re frustrated. But don’t take it out on MT. bigdz68 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

highfives Posted December 29, 2018 Author Share Posted December 29, 2018 (edited) Hi friends. I will sell the entirety of the DiH vinyl albums on Sunday, January 6 at noon cst. These should be considered pre-orders, and all records will ship by Feb. 6. Orders will be limited to one copy per order. Orders of more than one copy will not be fulfilled. I am already working on a second pressing. Edited December 29, 2018 by highfives BrainGilliams and tape 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am already working on a second pressing. How many have been sold so far and how many people I’ll be available next week? If you can add a media mail option since it’s a preorder. Some of us would rather save on shipping and arnt in a hurry since we have to wait to preorder anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
