  1. No. That's not the same, not even remotely. But nice try! To be fair, Warp doesn't need and never has needed Amazon to sell records. Especially from one of their biggest signings. Is there a precedent for Warp doing sponsored tie-ins like this with previous releases? For all we know Amazon could have bought a majority of warp at this point lol I guess we can count you as fully on board with this revolutionary and game-changing advertising tie-in, courtesy of Amazon Music.

  3. Warp played Parisian Goldfish video, in full, at Park Hill. On a massive cinema screen. Whilst residents of the flats could see. They don't give a fuck.
  4. Thanks for this. I've emailed them the same I emailed the press address last night. Hopefully they can help, because Norman can't do anything except refund if I send it back.
  5. Has anyone contacted blerp yet about the quality of the pressing? I haven't seen if anyone has. Since there are so many people it might be worth it. It's pointless for me to contact Blerp, since I bought from Norman Records (tired of fuck-ups with Blerp). I can't even complain to Warp though, because they'll just refer me to the retailer I bought the record from. I've emailed Norman to see what, if anything, can be done. I'm sure fuck-all will be done, since it's a one-off pressing... I would still contact WARP and let them know - they can't correct quality control mistakes like this unless they are aware of them... The contact page on warp.net doesn't really have an email address that's appropriate for this kind of thing. I could try sending to the UK Press Enquiries one I suppose… I'll drop a line to my contact, for what it's worth... That would be cool, thanks for offering! Hopefully QC issues like these can be minimised for future releases.
  6. 1. I haven't made any comment about the music, because in this subforum, unless you're giving complete praise you are a fucking heathen. I find it best to just avoid that discussion entirely. 2. A lot of people paid £17.99 for a record that, by many accounts, has a pressing defect. Along with the issues with NTS Sessions vinyl that arrived very warped and with pressing defects, Warp's quality control has slipped drastically. While I was dismissive in the NTS thread about 'bent sleeves', I completely understand why someone would want the actual records to be playable. 3. Out of my collection of records, only a very few have problems of this nature. To claim that vinyl as a listening format has these defects inherently is to show how clueless one is to make such a statement. A bit savage from beerbeast but he has a point.Just let go, download the wavs and have a good time Also give us your opinion about the music so we can nail you to an inverted cross if necessary He doesn't have a point, actually. Out of the 118 pages on this thread, there are a few posts that are making valid complaints about the pressing quality. But that constitutes as "never a positive conversation about the music"? Bullshit. It's just an underhanded way for someone to shit on a particular persons choice of listening format, whilst trying to justify why their choice of listening format is superior. Always the same old people making those kind of comments too, by the way, but you don't see me pointing that out every time they bike in. As far as my opinion on the music—comments like this (beerwolfs) are exactly why my posting on WATMM over the years has declined considerably. Everyone's a winner.

I thought the NTS Session replacements came in sleeves that didn't have foil blocking, and the sleeve colour cast was wrong?

  11. I converted the 320 MP3s to .MOD files, and played them back on an Amiga 500 with Vampire II accelerator card, and this really opened up the gape. Top work, mr Jammy-Wams
