Does this ever bother you? There is some amazing stuff by even well known artists (as far as electronic artists go) like Aphex Twin and Autechre that is really amazing, but was only available on super-limited edition vinyl. I can't figure out why they'd not want to make it more widely available... With Aphex Twin, it's possible that he just doesn't care, but I would think more artists would re-release it once they get bigger as a service to the fans. Even if they did not want to do it as a service to the fans, they could do it for the extra money! :) Is there some obvious reason they don't that I'm missing? Thanks! |

- the labels are small. making records cost money. and yes, 500 copies cost less to press than 5000. - the audience for these records is relatively small. again, we're talking about small labels - you want a number you are sure to be able to sell. - on re-realising - artists move on. they'd rather spend time on making new stuff instead of rehashing older work. and maybe, they just don't like their old stuff that much anymore. |

mabey it's the mystique that surrounds rare and much sought after stuff, they kinda lose some of that when they get re-released. I definetly know what your saying though, aphex would probably make a lot more money and props from his fans if he were to say re-dub the Hangable Auto Bulb ep's instead of releasing the bad joke which is smojphace. That's just my opinion of course, but I have the feeling many others share it. |

From Aphex Twin Analogue Bubblebath 2, 5 Hangable Autobulb 1,2 Bradley's Beat Bradley's robot Gak q-chastic Universal Indicator From Autechre Cavity Job radio mix Spltrmx We R Why Gescom The sound of machines our parents used Gescom EP 1-2 Keynell Remixes This Dual purpose (I actually have motor, that, ISSA and Keynell) From Mu-ziq anything tusken raiders or Diesel M Squarepusher Stereotype crot I am carnal Squarepusher plays buble and squeak Dragon Disc 2 If anyone knows of a Best buy where I can get this stuff, don't hesisitate to let me know! :) Squarepusher was on to something when he re-released Conumber and his other spymania stuff as Burning 'n' Tree except he fooled me because I bought conumber off of ebay not knowing I had it... and it gets stuck playing too... That's why I like to have it all on CDs! I mean, if they re-released all of this stuff, it'd sell pretty much as well as all their new stuff, so they could make some money. I understand why they have limited pressings when they are not as popular, but now that they are, they should do us fans (or their pockets) a service and re-release this stuff! |

you are asking for limited number releases some of the afx are 4 copies or 10 copies but afx: the rest of the stuff you wanted are crap..ioncluding ABB..classics are just bullshit you can find those stuff on SLSK so check them out on mp3 before you spend your money thats why they didnt print lots of those albums/Eps you need they are CRAP!!!! also check out AE: get some at warp or HEAR it there too AE info |

From Aphex Twin Analogue Bubblebath 2, 5 - 2 can be picked up 2nd hand reasonably easily, 5 is VERY limited if it was ever released properly (which i doubt, others on this board will know more than me tho) Hangable Autobulb 1,2 - ebay only Bradley's Beat - no chance, ebay only Bradley's robot - no chance, ebay only Gak - may be available 2nd hand, not too rare. q-chastic - v.v.v.v.v.v.v. limited Universal Indicator - which ones? cd is still available thru rephlex Gescom Gescom EP 1-2 - again v tricky (i have them though (blag boast)) Keynell Remixes - try warpmart |

i actually saw a universal indicator cd- blue yellow red and green altogether in hmv ...i didn't buy it tho got something else instead |

I've heard all the stuff I mentioned, and it's all incredible! I'd like to support the artist if I buy it, not some reseller on ebay.... I'm intrigued about Universal Indicators being available. I'd be interested in getting any of them. I thought they were all vinyl only. Where do I get these CDs? Rephlex.com doesn't look like they sell anything... I didn't know analogue bubble bath 2 was easy to find. I'll have to look for that. Keynell Remixes is not available on Warpmart... |

"I'd like to support the artist if I buy it, not some reseller on ebay.... " You'll have to get those releases second-hand though........ |

i get the impression that a lot of these limited artists dont really care that much about the money...otherwise maybe they would be telling the smaller labels to fuck off and parading themselves in front of warp or even bigger labels. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm sure they wouldn't refuse the offer if Warp asked to sign them up though.... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
true, this is a good point. in fact, lots of them are probably parading around for warp. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
What I was trying to say is that I'd like them to re-release them so I don't have to get them second hand. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
doing a parade may also mean, that artists dont show how much their sell limit is. just a certain number which makes sure every record is grabbed out of their hands is released to make them look good? this actually was pretty stupid. may it be like with books, a first pressing and when that is sold out another pressing goes away in that same year or so..? Gobal Goon said hed release 1000 copies right away and 2000 straight after if i remember right. |
