Search And Destroy: Warp Records

buy -> rip -> ebay?

Yeah, but there's a danger it'll be too pretty to sell and you won't be able to part with it.

buy -> develop star-trek replicator -> replicate -> ebay

one hundred pounds works as a price tag because warp fans are exactly the sort of bojos who go for box sets with fancy artwork etc.

I dunno what bojos are, but I do like sound of that word.

Fucking bojos.

i don't know why i typed it but it's from Back to the Future 2.

Okay, that word sucks.

top 10 picked by the crowd looking decent:

1 Windowlicker Aphex Twin
2 Roygbiv Boards of Canada
3 My Red Hot Car Squarepusher
4 Atlas Battles
5 LFO (Leeds Warehouse ... LFO
6 Eyen Plaid
7 I Love Acid Luke Vibert
8 Gantz Graf Autechre
9 I Wanna Be Your STD Jimmy Edgar
10 Herzog Clark

i fail to understand the logic that goes "sales are falling year over year so let's design and market ever more expensive and exclusive goods"

I know they still release some interesting stuff every now and then, but I already thought the Warp 10 3x2 compilations were like, let's look back at the good old days that ended about four years ago (then).

9 I Wanna Be Your STD Jimmy Edgar
10 Herzog Clark

kinda o_O rated to me - or at least, i know the top 8 really well but not these

same here, and i understand the logic of the exclusivity now: get the people who have the money to blow to subsidize the inevitable piracy.

the warp 10 comps are still great!

favourite warp era was 96-02 for me.

"i fail to understand the logic that goes "sales are falling year over year so let's design and market ever more expensive and exclusive goods"

it's completely logical and it will sell out within days of going on sale.

Warp20 (Recreated)
Double CD album
2 x CDs featuring twenty brand new cover versions of Warp songs by Warp artists past and present; including tracks by Autechre, Harmonic 313, Jamie Lidell, Plaid, Clark, Maximo Park, Seefeel, Luke Vibert and more... Packaged in deluxe case-bound 10" folder exclusive to this box set.

woo!

Maximo Park doing 'Tricky Disco' i hope (not)

I'm digging the new Tim Exile album "Listening Tree" - epic stuff!

it will sell out within days of going on sale.

"Due to the premium specification of the item, there can only be one pressing. The quantity manufactured will be based largely on these early preorders, so ordering before 5th July will also guarantee you a copy."

Guaranteed sell out!

color me bojo, i just ordered one.

I'd looooove to get the other 10+ box sets (I have the remixes one). never really bothered with ebay or anything, but I don't think those go cheap either.

10+2 is £8 from bleep. i guess 10+1 has licensing issues...

10+1 still on amazon
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Warp-10-Influences-Various-Artists/dp/B00002MR3Q

I should have mentioned: on vinyl (where on amazon there is reportedly 1 copy of 10+1 new from £149.99)

I am endlessly astounded how much some of my records are worth. (some obtained for free whilst I worked for Warp). The Warp 10 compilations are pretty great.

i think the artwork for this is pretty boring. might've been cool as illustration-based (rare for warp i guess).

Ed, or anyone else on this thread: if you happen to own a CD copy of It! by Coco Steel & Lovebomb and want to sell or trade it, I'd be interested. I've been looking for that one for ages.

wish i'd never sold 10+3 though at the time i seem to recall it was all boring post-rock

Plaid 'On My Bus' (Original by Plone)

lookin fwd to this 1 most

I fancy that, plus Mira Calix doing "Beautiful Place" and Vibert doing "LFO".

after the U2 thing i wonder if an ILX covers Warp compilation would be sacrilicious

Bibio 'Kaini Industries' (Original by Boards Of Canada) (3:40)

ooooh

John Callaghan 'Phylactery' (Based on Tilapia by Autechre) (5:34)

could be intrestin

We should just cover SAW II

Born Ruffians 'Milkman/To Cure A Weakling Child' (Originals by Aphex Twin) (5:30)

what

Nah I dunno, I have a weakness for 'unusual' cover versions and suchlike and some of this sounds great (Plaid, Jimi Tenor, maybe Russell Haswell) but Pivot covering Grizzly Bear is a kind of magnet pulling me over to the side of the boring IDM fux who think Warp stopped in 1999 or whatever

This looks really good.

Did anyone check out the Tim Exile album I mentioned upthread? Was listening to it last night. "Fortress" especially, sounds like a Depeche Mode cover of a Bal Sagoth track remixed by Matmos... (on acid)!

This isn't perfect but I like a lot of it. Most of the covers are at least done well and some of them are great. That Born Ruffians one is actually pretty good!

The only cover I really liked was the Jamie Lidell version of "Little Brother."

Mark Pritchard, Jimi Tenor, Seefeel, Born Ruffians, Autechre, Russell Haswell and Clark all did the biz for me

the prints are nice, and almost affordable (i'd buy one if i had somewhere to put it). but why aren't they square?

The Gravenhurst cover of Broadcast is the best thing on this... The Bibio one is also really nice,

"Plaid to support 'have nots' "

haha on the bbc website, obv an election thing but still, i had to read twice

Totally lost track of Warp ... didn't even hear the Leila album (or feel a huge compulsion to, either).

Taking over NTS radio all weekend starting now: https://www.nts.live/projects/wxaxrxp

This Plaid set is ❄︎ and unlike anything I’ve ever heard from them
