as far as the rumors go, there was a 4 track promo of this vinyl given to someone who worked in warp, but it was never realeased, (ALA mfm/AB5) only one of the tracks was released on a compilation cd, and that is the track that is floating around |

sorry, it was 'Rephlex', not 'Warp' |
||||||||

When was it released then? |

Q-Chastic (CAT002) was a test pressing 2x12" vinyls cut as 10" in 1992. Only a few people outside the Rephlex camp got one, and Richard nor Grant own originals anymore - Richard does have the DAT though. It is a 4-track EP, and the song CAT002 is different than the one that appears on the POSAM compilation. All four tracks are untitled. The only reason the track was entitled 'CAT002' on the POSAM comp was because it was a dirivitive track from CAT002 (the EP). The proper name for the EP is Q-Chastic and the artist who did it is called Q-Chastic. |

This is possible the hottesdt item of the messageboard. We have heard so much about the record but nobody have seen it. There are so many fables about this record: hoax, fake MP3's, different descriptions... |
||||||||

|
That's because it doesn't exist, joy... |

jand, i keep telling him that... let him live in his fantasy man he obviously enjoys it.. |
||||||||
|

Ahh, I see - because Tits and Jand say it's so, it must be the truth... silly me. Sorry guys, but I trust Grant/Richard's word over yours (and Mike P's) on this one. Alan Parry had one, and I've spoken to friends of his who confirmed this. What do I care anyway if it exists or not? If Richard doesn't decide to release it, who cares what the tracks sounded like, or if they were any good? All I am doing is emparting the info that was passed along to me to others who ask. |

we talked about this just a week ago.. there's no evidence to suggest the tracks have ever left the DAT.. how do you know alan parry had one? but you're right it's a sad discussion considering these will probably never be released anyway... |
||||||||

I've never talked to Alan personally about it, but several reputable people have confirmed he had one (the only weird part of the story is he said it was 'stolen', which I find hard to buy). Why is it so improbable that a test pressing exists? You all would have never known about CAT023 had it not been for Mike P and my interview with him on it... not everything that's out there is on the net you know :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
ok... and a reputable person, namely mike p., has said he's never seen it ANYWHERE and he should know. so we can chalk this up to no proof to validate either claim, as it's kind of a pointless and nerdy thing to discuss anyway. it's improbable a test pressing of the # of copies you and phobia have assigned to it (as well as other afx sites now faded away) exists cos we'd have mp3zzzz and ebay sales by now. there's none for CW: Da Album! cos it was such a small press. 200 or whatever it was, you'd have heard it by now. |

CAT023 was limited to FOUR (4) copies. 2nd: I'm sure the CAT002 test press was very limited, probably a few, less than a dozen - test pressings are just used to gauge audio quality and to make sure the masters don't have any flaws. Most test pressings are junked after verification as to avoid them getting mixed up with the production copies. AND, just because Mike P didn't see it, doesn't mean it does not exist - I'm sure he wasn't privvy to a lot of early Rephlex stuff since he came in on the picture after Rephlex was started, and CAT002 was one of the first planned releases. |

I like these kind of arguments... you know ;) |

yes i quite enjoy a good arguement too. i love the whole mike p said this...no no he said that..no he meant this tho. |

rephlex are great aren't they? they live off myths of strange deleted or non-existant records. you've got to give it to them, its great p.r. for them :) |

yes i know CW was very limited, i just said that... 200 (or 100, whatever you and the other web sites said in the past) was what i said for q-chastic ep, which as michael moore would put it, is purely "ficticious"... don't take it so personally, it just seems unlikely and remains unproven that this exists. |

God's existance hasn't been proven, but it doesn't hinder billions of people all over the world to believe in him. (silly example, I know). As for what was said/printed in the past, that was back when all we had to go on was regurgitated information, before any of us actually started talking to people who were around in those days. I assure you my new Aphex discog will strive to be as accurate as possible. |
