castaway Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 Yes, but it's nice to know that some amount of effort went into a release before I shell out $24 on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek™ Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 From a design standpoint, it's super clean and efficient without being overly minimal. Definitely suits the music nicely. From a packaging standpoint - especially compared to the gargantuan Past Is Prologue and Dive - its easily the most modest release.

I just picked up a copy at my local store here in San Diego for 14.99 (Colored if that means anything to you) I'm pretty damn sure you could find a copy at Amoeba or Origami for a damn good price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
castaway Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 I actually just moved here a few months ago. I never find great prices at Amoeba but I've never been to Origami, I'll have to check it out. Thanks for the tip! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casinonightzone Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 Just found out I won a test press of this from my local record store! SO STOKED! thefinalsound 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek™ Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 Just found out I won a test press of this from my local record store! SO STOKED! Whoa, nice. I wish more local record stores did test-press giveaways. Not that I have any nearby, personally, but the concept is pretty cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neanderthal Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 Finally got this along with Dive. Listening now, sounds grrrrreat! And the layout/packaging for Dive is insanely amazing. Wish I had the deluxe now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never find great prices at Amoeba but I've never been to Origami, I'll have to check it out. Thanks for the tip! Let me know how Origami goes! I want to check it out sometime. Btw I only listened to 1 song before buying this record... And I have to say it's pretty goddamned beautiful especially for the changes going on in my life right now. Funny how music can do that. Has anyone checked out "Heathered Pearls" ? I got a copy of their record and it's pure feel good music, kinda tantric/downtempo... All pressings are black with white streaks colored. Also from Ghostly International Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neanderthal Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 Origami has some pretty good stuff. When I was living in LA, I found a new copy of Exmilitary for $20 even. (Circa July 2012) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll have to remedy that shortly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do the same haha (let some albums marinate in my downloads folder for shoot yeah months at a time, hard to break that habit!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
castaway Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 Let me know how Origami goes! I want to check it out sometime. Went ahead and checked it out tonight. It's SUPER small and they were having some listening party so the entire place was packed with people just standing there talking. Fortunately I pushed past some people and first thing I saw was a copy of Awake for $15. Went ahead and picked it up. It's not colored but oh well.

kamalatapes Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 This seems to be the cheapest I've found on the internet... still around 18$ shipped? then there are some on eBay still for around 20$+ the rest are all 40$-90$ http://www.discogs.com/marketplace?release_id=5498750&ev=rb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FangsAnalSatan Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 I got mine today. I wished I hopped on it sooner so I could have got the gatefold. Oh well. I'm surprised I got a beige copy with how late I ordered it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radiatorhums Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Got mine in today as well and I just put it on my turntable. Like what I'm hearing so far. The beige matches the packaging really well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was under the impression that ISO50 webstore sold gatefold copies for some reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiscodeman Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 So is the beige variant completely sold out, or can you still get it with that "limited edition bundle" on the iso50 store? It still says you can add it to your cart.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
