Looks like our man has made an appearance! It's a shame that you had to be 'Unknown' for what I can gather appears to be your first album, but what a first it is!

Any guesses as to the identity of the artist for WH06? Sounds kinda like Microlith to me.

But in all seriousness, WH06 is amazing, not a single dud on that album, and WH04 is a pretty close contender as well, it's a shame most people won't be able to hear it just becau oh wait guess what's been ripped and is up on red and slsk. id buy it but it seems like withhold got all the money that they were wanting to make with this one so

Pretty much, you have a handful of rabid fans of an incredibly niche genre who are always hungry for new stuff, and you're gatekeeping it behind exorbitantly expensive physical media that degrades with use. Why would you withhold (lol) music from such a dedicated fanbase, and intentionally limit exposure like that? For all the shit he catches on watmm, flahbub/benn has the right idea, making his music as readily available as possible and even uploading his own releases to torrent sites to ensure that everyone who wants to listen is able to. Vinyl only limited releases smacks of elitism and cynical exploitation of a passionate, limited, audience. If you must, do your limited release, then make it available digital after a period of exclusivity, so that collectors can have their wank over their exclusive physical media, and the rest of us can actually enjoy the music. It's not like the vinyls aren't going to sell out anyways.

They're not getting any apologies from me. Hey 'WHO' or whatever the feck your label is called: release digitals or piss off!

ballacid ripped and posted the entirety of Forced Hypnosis on his channel: Hope this gets a proper digital release!

getting burnt out on colundi? i have a sneaking suspicion that aleksi discovered an AI algorithm to generate music, the output of which he which he just quickly vets then slaps onto bandcamp for low effort unlimited income lol

I have it on good authority that if you seek within your soul, you may find Microlith II there ?‍☠️

Several tracks were uploaded to this channel https://www.youtube.com/user/ballacid/ Some good ones, but exclusive vinyl only labels can fuck right off. bunch of gatekeeping hipster horseshit

Arrrrrrrrr.....

You know what you need to do..... ☠️

I know, I just want it in my media library in a reasonable quality ? guess they figure the audience is so tiny that they're not losing much with the hyperexclusivity, though don't know why that prevents them from throwing a bone to those who don't have a huge disposable income... or a record player

Stian more CN pls

https://fundamentalrecords.bandcamp.com/merch/available-now-rhys-celeste-microlith-ii-2x12 oh look, Microlith II is out, only 90 fucking canuckistani dollars after shipping. Goddamn I hate fundamental records. Yes lets gatekeep a dead guy's hundreds of hours of work behind some absurdly priced dead format. I'm sure rhys would be overjoyed to know that only maybe 100 people on the planet will hear these tracks. If I win the lottery i'm making it my mission to acquire and rip every single one of their releases to put on the web fundamental records can eat my entire ass
