so now that its out, and the artists were supposed to be a surprise (which i'd figure means we'd find out when we got it), does anyone know who they are? Drexciya, BoC, Carl Craig, RDJ, anyone? http://www.discogs.com/release/908696 |

Do you reckon you could make a profit on this? Not even play it, just keep it in the plastic and flog it six months down the line. |

Ai spacializating in collector items to survive... im not purchasing it, but id guess theres just Ai classic artist in those vinils... like yellotone or yunx or whatever... too expensive imo... |

but can i dance to it |

I'm always a sucker for these kind of limited vinyl releases, but without any information whatsoever, it is a risky purchase (not to mention an expensive one). I hope some MP3's are released for this first record. If the tracks are good enough, i'll buy future installments. |

Do you have more info? Is this the first in a series of releases? |

Oh and the first record is completely sold out apparently. But don't worry, you'll be sure to find some shithawks selling them on the discogs page for $499.99 very soon! |

Wait a second, someone is selling a record saying it's got secret artists on it? So it literally could be anybody? I mean Justin Timberlake could be behind this. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Pretty much, yeah. It is by one of the guys who runs AI Records I believe. The only info we have about the first record is that a lot of people like it on discogs (lots of 5/5 ratings) and some guy on the RUR myspace page who left a comment saying it was excellent. I must say, I love the sleeve artwork too. Look at it this way: everyone thought analord 10 was a ripoff at £40, but you didn't hear any complaints when the market value suddenly increased 5 fold for that particular record :) Still... 30 second samples would be nice. |

Isn't that what you do with BIYC? I hear The Visionaries are actually Justin Timberblake and Damon Albarn. |

I'm not charging £45 for it though :P Brisk: Such a strange situation. |

hiya. just a quickie form aiHQ. i hope u all realise this is not a scam, or an exercise in: "spacializating in collector items to survive... im not purchasing it, but id guess theres just Ai classic artist in those vinils... like yellotone or yunx or whatever... too expensive imo... " it is a special project to introduce something alittle special in todays music world. to create a product that is exciting and special. the artists on this project are not going to be the usual Ai roster. they are special guests that have influenced me musically and inspired me. most of the artists onboard are only letting me put this record out if the qnty is 100 this is another reason why its so LTD. its not a crazy way of makeing money, its a good project that will be worth while for a label and as a collector. I HOPE> ta. AI. |

it still gets me interested in getting these records just because it's so mysterious. Just a little overpriced though imo, cause it might aswell be really shit music to your own ears and not to other's. If only i had a creditcard or something |
||||||||
|
|

not really over priced seeing that there is only 100 made. its not a massive profit makeing exercise. if the music was shit then people would stop buying the series. and it would not work. so far the comments ive had are all good. and it was difficult to follow up the first one as it was so well recieved. BUT trust me the next one is one BAD MUTHA record. the key to RUR is something old, something borrowed, something new. all quality music in my opinion. just hope everyone continues to agree. / Ai. |

whos the artists? |

The stupid is strong with xlt lately. The aibot said it himself: "if the music was shit then people would stop buying the series. and it would not work." I have ordered it. If the record is shit, I won't be buying anymore, simple as that. When my copy arrives, i'll let you all know my thoughts, perhaps in a dog_belch inspired review if it turns out to be arse. |

"I just hope everyone agrees." Yeah, all 100 of you slapping each other on the back, 50 of those being personal friends, 45 being eBay traders, and 5 who bought it to shelve with all the other "mystery artist" records that turned out to be shit (Collapse Of The Wave Function, anyone?) |

And there in lies just one the bumaching dichotomies of Ziltytronic. There should just be talk about music... But don't criticise or have an opinion on it. All creative endeavours are worthwhile and above reproach.. Despite the "spam" and majority of actual releases disproving this theory time and time again. I'd like comments on my new music.... But I'll only respond to the negative comments, claiming they're unfounded. It's ok for a label to hawk their 20 or even 40 quid two track 12" via this board... As long as I can download it for free. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think just some of the xlt-ers bought one of the records for the first time, and are praying to God that it isn't shit and worth that much money, so the smallest little negative comment from someone else feels like there's shit flung into their face. It's not that i'm against RUR, i'm just a curious horrible cunt. |
||||||||
|
|

The problem is, people are criticising the release without even listening to it first. People were exactly the same when Analord 10 was announced and despite the moaning regarding the price tag, a lot of them kicked themselves when they realised the music was actually decent and the market value of the record rose massively. Still, I suppose it is human nature to be cautious of expensive releases if they don't have any real information about what they're buying. If the record turns out to be decent (which i'm sure it will), then I will let everyone know about it. If the record is shit, I will do exactly the same thing. I'm not going to claim it to be the best thing ever if it most certainly isn't. Only time will tell I suppose. |
||||||||

yes people are, but i'm not. I'm actually interested in this record label, but im way too serious in terms of price and descency, for a good reason |

OK. I am sorry to try to be an adult here, but here is what I see. Two or three people decide its ok to be cunts to everybody. Not really much different from any other site on the internet. Problem being is for some reason people in the industry that cater towards the kind of music this messageboard is set up for seem to think that there are people here who care about music so they take an interest. They show up a few times and get pissed off by people who would rather have an opinion and be cunts than actually talk about music. This website looses support from the label owners and artists. Correct me if I missed anything. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
so, we're not allowed to critisize people in terms of music related stuff, because that'll scare Rich and Tom off this board? If there's music to discuss on this board, then there should be oppinions. Discussing is sharing eachother's oppinions. Negative reactions on discussions in music are, believe it or not, oppinions (i admit sometimes, people here just really feel good about themselves when they act like cunts). I think you're taking the cunty personality's of some of the people on this board a little bit too serious, and you should, just like those label guys who sign up here to promote their stuff, pay alittle less attention to them. i hope i don't belong to the cunty category though :( |
||||||||

|

Fuck. I am just saying don't be a cunt for the sake of being a cunt. I didn't say anything about not expressing an opinion. People should always feel its within their right to express their opinion. I was just expressing mine, which is "don't be a cunt". You weren't being a cunt I don't think, so my comment wasn't directed to you. That said, I think its sad that every time someone tries to mention that people should try to show eachother a little bit more repsect it gets turned into a free speach thing. |

So these people "in the industry", these hardboiled business men (releasing an expensive, limited run silver 12" by god knows who on an unknown label is a straight-up marketing ploy to hook in fan boys, completists and collector scum, and not something done "for the love of music"), these people that want your money, ... they're frightened off away from this potential GOLDMINE because two or three people "are cunts". I looked through this thread, and apart from a few skeptical jibes, no one's "a cunt", a cunt would say "Stick your fucking overpriced shit up your arse, if you want to make money, pretend they're sold out and bung them on eBay yourself. Why don't you tell us who the artists are? Because when Circuitz Grong and Tapr Ravers release under their usual aliases, no one gives a fuck... oh could be Carl Craig.. could be Aphex.. could be me if you're very unlucky." but no one has, has they? What would Record Industry types do here if it wasn't "full of cunts" what if it was placid, oasis of uncritcial consumerism? What would these execs and artists do here given free reign? Give away free stuff? Talk to you about their influences? Give Cygnus tips on how to make his beats more rhythmic? Post "lol" a lot? Sign you to their fucking label? "Correct me if I missed anything." You missed the fucking boat mate, is what. |

They show up a few times and get pissed off by people who would rather have an opinion and be cunts than actually talk about music. There's no music to fucking talk about in this case unless you're willing to stump up £20 upfront on good faith. What fucking music? Where is the music to discuss? Why aren't the people who bought this falling over themselves to say how great it is, to quash the naysayers, how many of the people that bought it actually dared play it in case it reduced its value? This isn't about music, therefore there's not much talk about "the music", there is no fucking music, just bedroom boy doing his mates a few favours and Quinoline Yellow handing over a tape he found stuck to a condom under his bed. |

A few "reviews" of the first record are . I spoke to that Jason guy (not the label owner) and he said " it's awesome! the b-side being a really slick, clean, electro killer. similar in vein to claro intelecto". Of course, he did just spend a lot of money on the record so maybe that influenced his opinion somewhat, but the favourable reviews I have read make me at least want to give it a chance. |

*Sigh* I like the yellow text on a yellow background, that's progressive. I'd be all excited because "B12 Records" are in his friends group but seeing as that account is run by Josh of "Seed Records" I'd lay money down that these mystery artists really are mystery artists in the sense that they couldn't get arrested on account of no one knowing who they were anyway. Could be Claro Intellecto.. I even like Claro Intellecto, but I'd rather spend the money on one of his albums and know what I was getting. |

Perhaps I didn't spell it out clearly. Your being a cunt. Don't chase away every person that has something usefull to contribute, just because you seem to have the deluded impression that your spitefulness may occasionally be confused for wit. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
With the first record all 90 copies sold out, the next one will sell out and then the next... probably all of them will unless they start to get rubbish rubbish. And I get to be spiteful without affecting sales. We all win, except you, apparently. Unless you were banking on being asked to contribute to Volume 9 when the "unreleased classics" shoebox starts to look a bit barren? |

Well, you have been here for two years less than I, but have 6000 more posts. Your obviously a lot more internets than I am, so whatever. Forget I said anything. |

I think it's because even you realise you haven't got anything to say apart from "Whatever" and "support the artists because... err.. whatever the... industry.. usefull you're your no i mean your an idiot.. you're an.. you are an idiot" |
