Joyrex points out a good point:

Also, I'm calling bullshit on the "was never contacted by the label or BoC", but whatever, if that saves them face, then so be it. The act still stands for itself, and the fact they pulled a near 1000 quid auction (despite the claim "no money traded hands") speaks volumes to the veracity of that claim. If the whole point was to get money to help fund an upcoming addition to the family, then how does "an exchange" solve that hard reality? Nevermind, none of my business.

The auction was hosted by the wife of Mike Paradinas. Together they operate the Planet Mu label.
Oh wow, now I understand. Thanks.

is it only possible to view these Vine vids on a mobile device use its app? can't see any video on my laptop

I am baffled, in awe, and startled by those videos.
Is that clip in the background unreleased boc?
Why is he breaking the tape?
Also, Mike's expression is priceless.

Another angle:

Not that I'd care much either way, but I'm fairly certain the video is a troll. And a damn funny one.

Techboy · Post by **Techboy** » Mon Jun 24, 2013 8:09 pm

hahaha. well that at least increases the value of dealer/phaelam's copies!

as juvenile as it is confusing. the real way to do this is to make a cute little fire with the j-cards, then un-spool and melt the tapes in that.

anyway, i really can't understand this from any perspective. was it all just to laugh at what someone else values? are there any repercussions from e-bay for staging a hoax auction? i mean the drama (at watmm) is hilarious, but is that all this was for? are they laughing at boc for being hurt in the first place, maybe putting a nail in the coffin of the old set release? does mdg know anything? am i trying to set a record for consecutive questions?
it's too strange, and over music that got ripped almost ten years ago now..

I'd like to see someone else who has it leak the full version of whatever song that was playing (if it was even a real BoC song)

I think between this and the continued insistence that there's no plans on the table for an official release...mysterious creator of R35TT, it's time for 35 Random Tunes Vol. 2! Chop it up and hide the track lengths all you want, I'll lap it up.

I just had an idea that they purposely leaked those tapes just to have another release format.

Obviously a troll, just breaking some old random tapes (see the pun there), in some photo copied cassette sleeves.. Which I guess is not dissimilar to the original old tapes distributed by the boys, haha..

It was truly awesome and ironic that I had to stop "The Way You Show" to listen to those vine videos, which were extremely creepy in their loop and audio recorded. I loved it!

Done for the haters, and If I had purchased these I would have taken some sick pleasure in posting something along the same vein..

A world of puns here

Edit:typo
