Their stuff is just so good. why can't they re-release some of their stuff if not all of it? I mean like take their old record material and put it to cd. like that gescom minidisc...i bet that would sell if put to cd. id buy it... |

That would be great...the problem, however, is that Skam is a small record company, with limited resources. The aim for a small company is to grow. You don't do that by spending money on re-releasing old stuff, you do that by releasing new stuff. The other problem is that Gescom is more of a collaboration, not a defined musical entity like Autechre. So there are different artists involved who worked on different releases. If it were financially feasible, it might not be logistically or as far as who has the say on what gets released by whom. See the problem: These releases were MEANT to be limited, simply by the limitations of the company and artists involved. If the people involved saw a way to cut a profit and get noticed by selling thousands upon thousands of these records, it would have been done. That's simply not the case. The supply and demand for this material is a "niche market", i.e. only, at best, a few thousand who actually would buy it. You think the current mainstream British music market would want something like Gescom, when they are clearly geared towards consuming other types of music? No. The reality is that Gescom is a small-time operation only geared to a particular audience. Chances are, there will be SOMETHING, but I doubt the entire back catalog will be re-released. Simply not real for both artists and company involved. ¢¢ |

I see your point. thanks for sharing that. |

Sorry. I know that sucks... :( |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
yeah :( but a small company is a small company ... there isn't much you can do. and i suppose its for the best that gescom stays limited..makes it all the more special :) |

We weren't talking mp3. We were talking vinyl and CD... Some of us LIKE the pretty pictures that come with the album... ;) |
||||||||

I know.. but if a cd gets released there won't be a lot of pretty pictures there.. I mean, look at the original sleeves.. the graphics on the inner circle of the vinyl was cool though.. I would buy a cd with rereleased gescom for the better sound quality, yes. |

daweeze, I would say first check out slowdive-just for a day(should be pretty cheap) ride-nowhere if you like these two then by all means explore more but I myself didn't get really into the shoegazing scene. just a few select bands. take care |
