i argued things out with GWC over facebook. i came away from it with this: rephlex is just GWC, they don't have any staff, and it doesn't turn much of a profit. rather than simply close doors, they've drawn down their release schedule to almost nil. sort of like how a person's brain gradually craters as alzheimer's progresses.
this is, of course, sad and painful to watch... but you can't do a bloody thing about it. after a bit of sobbing, you realize it's actually much better than rephlex just being hit by a bus, unexpectedly dying before its time. this way, we get a trickle of releases until rephlex finally loses control of its bodily functions and spends the last six months of its life chemically restrained on thorazine.
then riced out records picks up the torch and carries on for us all

let's start a microfunding project to save rephlex records!
then we all at xltronic will own rephlex and new records releasings will be chosen via woofie polls...

Well the first part must be true (I mean, how could it be any other way?). And sure, some releases are better than none.
But they’re not at death’s door. The founders have decades of life left and probably would like to keep doing relevant and interesting work. It might not take the shape you expect, but it would certainly be well in line with who they are. I also imagine they wouldn’t object to turning the kind of profit that would allow all of them to focus on the task at hand, without losing a shred of their (well-earned) integrity. Say what you want, but I know it can be done, and I think it would be a lot of fun.
Anyway here’s hoping for no clouds during the transit of venus tomorrow. Chance of a lifetime

loads of weird speculation in this thread. i wouldn't be so pessimistic if i was you. magness is a lot closer to the truth.

I never understand this attitude (YosepH's.. as in the poster.. YosepH, by vibert, is golden).
I am happy to live in a world that's already had such amazing releases by everyone at rephlex. They've already made my life better. I am grateful for this; how could I return the kindness with aggressive, greedy harassment for more?

i don't think it's aggressive, greedy harassment for more so much as it is people being used to instant access to information. people expect to be kept in the loop, these days. if rephlex got a twitter or a facebook or what the fuck ever, and did a newsletter every six months (or whatever) i think a lot of the gripers would calm down and accept it. the ol' stonewall is considered a bit rude now

anyway, rephlex will never die. they can always release a couple of unreleased afx tunes and get some cash to keep going...
they can even be released under a diferent alias and thatd be enough, i think... (the tuss? 2 remixes, smojphace, rephlexions with afx tune...)

i'm definitely willing to wait for mental union 2. i just hope it comes out. it sucked checking ovuca.com and seeing the dates change for release then eventually change to a vague "Mental Union double CD is coming out on Rephlex!"

i think it would make sense for them to update the digital store with anything that isn't released on vinyl (i.e. the monolith cd)

Totally!
It initially said the release date was Dec 2011... It's been pretty strange to try and keep track of

I am a old git. I have collecting rephlex for 20 years + I think they release stuff too quick nowadays. I have 181 releases recs(71)+cds(110). Rephlex is the best label in the world and I think there releases are getting more solid and unmissable. up your arse feckers above ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I have a theory young peoples ears are fecked up by using mobile phones. All rephlex sounds great, mastering wise. I am not being an audio wanker. honest. I have good regular speakers.
