Ya' know, it automatically redirects to discogs.com Rephlex page.
WTF happened to they? I think now RDJ is don't want to maintaining hes label anymore.

Perhaps they have just pulled it in anticipation of their upcoming relaunch as Reflex v2 - with extended catalog space (+260 releases)

i chatted with him on facebook a bit like two years ago -- initially about boomkat jerking everyone off with steinvord pre-orders, but since i was there i asked "wtf is up with rephlex" anyways? why do you guys not update the store with more trax?
what he told me is this: it's just him, really. he runs the place the same way he has for the last 20 years. they don't add tracks to their digital store because that just hurts vinyl sales.
all but the last part of that made sense to me... like people don't rip vinyls and upload that?
in any case, maybe he finally got fed up with the whole mess and retired.

Rephlex was not in best shape 2 years ago (only 4 CD-only releases), in 2013 they are completely dominating. I hope they keep it up like this.
I believe (and hope) because it redirects, instead of completely offline, that this is just temporary. Grant even said on fb back in late august that new official Rephlex shirts were coming, and there will be a release from Aleksi Perala of 4 albums (+ 1 EP) soon. Besides that, the Rephlex website has never been the center of focus of the label anyway.

well, that wasn't literally what he said. it was something like "why sell digital tracks when people just pirate it"
my answer was: why not? unless it's costly to host the tracks or there are licensing issues, why not give people the option? consider it a glorified donation box, and it makes sense. the way this crowd is, i feel people really would chip in a few bucks if rephlex asked

Grant-Wilson Clarification has not been forthcoming. I get the feeling Rephlex never felt at home on the Web. The first couple of iterations of their site were great. I think it all went down hill around the Grime and Smojphace period, the Arse-Ache Years.
