Some of the moderators here are retards. Someone submitted the Amorphous Androgynous (FSOL) EP Mello Hippo Disco Show on CD, and I put on the 12". One of the moderators has now given it a problem because, and I quote: "just wondering why all these titles are released under Amorphous Androgynous. Isn't the artist Future sound of london ?" I'm sorry, but what the fuck? Does he think people would put it under Amorphous Androgynous if it was a FSOL release? Or shall we just start putting Polygon Window releases as Aphex Twin... I mean, why was it released as Polygon Window? For fuck's sake. The CD doesn't even mention FSOL on it at all. |

Erm, some of the moderators there, even, not here. Obviously. Sorry. I get more pissed off every time someone gives me a stupid error. |

er, maybe you should not call people retards before you know all the facts yourself. I am pretty sure that because they were worried sales would be adversely affected in the States it was released under FSOL and not Amorphous Androgynous over there. |

The Mello Hippo Disco Show EP was not released in the US. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
I thought it was released on Artful Records over there? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Nope. I think Artful shipped some copies over as import versions (at least, this is what their management have told me, anyway). They would have been Amorphous Androgynous too. Which is really besides the point. Both the CD and 12" say Amorphous Androgynous on them, which is why they were both submitted as Amorphous Androgynous. Were they FSOL, I would have put FSOL. The guy is basically suggesting I can't read the sleeve. The only mention of FSOL on the sleeve is 'produced by The Future Sound of London'. There's no mention at all on the . Plus, I stated UK as country of release. |

heh, fair enough....still it's not worth getting so worked up over it, he was only querying, it's not as though he was calling you a liar. |
||||||||

I wouldn't normally get so worked up, only I get so much crap on discogs. One day I woke up to find four releases marked as problem, by the same person. All he said was "???" in every single one of them. Some of these have been on there for about three months now... aaaaaaagh. I need to get laid. |

The Isness was released in the states under FSOL, I know that for certain. I think this persons just got their wires crossed. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah. It was their US record company (Cleopatra, of all people) who decided to release it as FSOL. They didn't do anything else... no limited editions, no vinyl version, they didn't do any singles, either. Pretty crap company. In the UK the whole lot's Amorphous Androgynous - The Isness, The Otherness, Mello Hippo, Divinity and the next AA album. |

I have no idea why Godspeed You Black Emperor! are listed on that site. |

Some of the discogs mods are idiots. I've gotten more than a few ridiculous "fix notes" for my pending releases. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
is this the same purlieu who downloaded my rip of the humanoid peel session, deleted the tags, then put is as a FSOL release on HIS OWN website with THE WRONG date? |
||||||||

fucking ace avatar |

i dont see you volunteering to write stuff. have a cry... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Nope, this is the Purlieu that downloaded the Humanoid Peel Session from an ftp labelled as being from 1990. Was only going on the information I had at the time. Stop wittering about that. :P |

i agree that there are more than occasional encounters with mods on discogs who are unclear on the format, won't allow any notes, insist on incorrect track titles because of a website somewhere that lists them that way (when you are sitting at your computer with the actual release in your hand), etc.. roygbivcore got a fake warp release listed under his name, nigel shields. not sure if it's still there, though. true also "the isness" is by fsol in the u.s. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
Yep it's still there. |

"4 members have this item." :D |

Oddly there is a WAP169 "Broadcast - Microtronics" and a WAP171 "Jimmy Edgar - Access Rythm" but no WAP170 at the moment :P |
||||||||
|
|

i have the 12" its quite nice although i didn't go for the album much. its probably my favourite track, and the remixes work quite well. shame they didnt make it longer like cascade. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the rephlex cats dot around aswell. i guess its to do with re-arranging release dates which seems to happen a lot. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I read somewhere that when someone goes to Warp or Rephlex and says they have something to release they are assigned a catalogue number straight away, which is why there are holes in the numbering as well. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
some "gaps" in catalogue numbers on rephlex seem to co-incide with other releases with strange non-linear catalogue numbers. so the records probably don't exist. or they do exist but with different catalogue numbers. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The CD version has two brilliant mixes... Hippo-Drone (really cool instrumental one) and The World's in Transience, which is an orchestral one, possibly my favourite version of the track, actually. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Okay, the bastards gave me another error for a different CD. Apparently the tracklist is wrong. I left them a note: Okay, I have now changed half the song titles so they are NOT as they read on the sleeve. Better? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Hahaha, WAP 170 Nigel Shields - "I'm Sorry About The Children" (12") Without a doubt, the funniest thing I've seen in a while. Xltronic WILL be better than discogs cos: a)Phobiazero and the gang have a clue b)Not every moron on the net can add things. |
