It's from a skydiving accident where two planes collided not long ago, they all made it out alive thankfully.

well then whats the point in 140gm and even 180gm if theyre not 'as good' sounding as 120gm?

last longer? what is it? is it just a marketing ploy?

In my opinion it's a gimmick to attract audiophiles most of the time. But like I said the lightweight 1970's records I have still have better sound ...

I can already imagine this is costing Warp quite a lot of money and getting us re-re pressings on their own dime, out of respect for them I am sticking with what I got.

As for the re-re pressings I got them today, TCHighway came in a full new sleeve with the sticker and download card. TCHheadphase ...

Can someone that has a damaged "Trans Canada Highway" pressing tell me what the problem with it is? I listened to "Under the Coke Sign" and found a ton of static, but felt silly when I compared it to the digital version and it just seems to be part of the recording. I haven't done a close listen of ...

My emailed reply to Bleep's first response email last night + their somewhat shorter reply today:

Hi there

In terms of a photo, there's not much to see to be honest? I looked closely, but this seems to be a flaw, rather than 'damage' per se. Incidentally, there are a string of people with the ...

This is seriously unacceptable, I've already went back to get another copy (twice) of TCH and it still sounds the same. I just got Trans Canada Highway, which is so unbelievably bad sounding I had to upload this track:

Give it a listen, it is completely fine in between tracks but when it comes onto ...

should we not re-title this thread

Vinyl Issues Arrived Today.

TCH is piss, skipping all over side 4 and the volume drops.

Geogaddi plays fine but the sleeves are changed around (they should have left it as is) and is printed much darker.

I had the same thing with TCH, glad it isn't just me ...

I can upload it if you'd like.
Not sure if that's against the rules though since it's fake...

whilst we're on the subject of fakes and stuff, would anyone mind identifying this track for me? I've had it labelled as seward leaf for years, I'm pretty sure it isn't that as the track time is completely wrong, but it's also not the múm track that is sometimes labelled as seward leaf.

I also ...

Track 6 is mono. MONO. There's no way that neuromute just ripped this right now. If these files are all from a continuous rip, theres no way that his computer decided to all of a sudden rip in mono for a portion of the tape that just so happens to be the length of ONE track. Not only is this tape a ...

@Breen.
You're right, properties are created when imported to a computer. However, due to the fact that they were imported directly to iTunes, then automatched to songs on R35TT that quite possibly could've been from CV1, does change properties. Also, I'm a damn obsessive fan of BoC, and I wouldn't ...

Ripping audio off of tapes does not give it properties, you literally just renamed the files off of the random 35 tracks tape and threw in some others that were confirmed fakes months ago. Weak attempt at a fake and a scumbag move.
