    Houston 12" at the show did not come with a download card, no digitals with the purchase

    Field Day 12" at the show did not come with a download card, no digitals with the purchase

    Tuss 3x12" from Aphex Twin Bleep site did not come with digitals

    Don't see why the London and Manchester 12's will be any different, they probably do not and will not come with digitals. Could be wrong though!

    I wish those first 3 would show up on the store...

    I've always wondered what the deal may look like on the store and what Richs cut might look like on bonus tracks. Sure he must get more than 50% as warp do eff all for their cut on the bonus stuff.

     

    (Edit: Assuming he's on a 50/50 deal as that's standard. He ain't standard tho so might well get more than this)

    Is a 50/50 deal standard?

    Either way, Warp do quite a lot - from pressing to distribution it is quite a task. Plus on top of that, they market the fuck out of stuff (Blimps, tube ads, instore visuals, music videos, etc).
    The Bleep store is just a smart move by Warp as with any brand selling direct to consumer...You get the markup which record stores would normally take.

    Maybe Rich does have a better deal than others but then he probably gives a lot of that leverage up as he does fuck all of the marketing side himself unlike other artists...No social presence, barely any interviews, etc.
    Wasn't there an interview with someone from Warp who was saying that he is a nightmare on that stuff as he just wants to make music and nothing else. Could be wrong...

    nice work.

    one tiny detail though...that alternative saw 85-92 playlist got p-string on it!? how on earth got that track on there. shouldn't be there, imo. (disclaimer: i like the track! it just doens't belong on the alt SAW1 playlist imo...)

    Kinda stoked people are looking that closely...
    Where would it fit better?

    Try using the Developer Tools in Chrome to grab those images and see if perhaps there's a full-res version lurking in the code...

    LOL, does that sheep have purple hair? What's that purple bit at the top of her head?

    Yep - I went through developer tools...the ones for CT and RE are on there in a much higher resolution...

    ...and yes - I think it is the purple spray farmers use to mark their herd. My daughter found it daft, too.
    I actually started looking for types of sheep and narrowing down exactly which kind is on that Tuss release so I could replicate - but after 40 mins of searching for sheep, I realised I probably should get on with some work.

    New version of The Tuss.

    Those images on the Aphex site are so tiny...at least, the one which hasn't been used. So, I had to find another guy...So, Wednesday evenings search history is an odd event to anyone looking in.
    I'll upload playlist files (not MP3s) tomorrow and if I get time, I might crack on with a few more...
