I mean, the label IS Warp records right? (hope they issue a replacement or give you your money back, that's crap) Thanks! Very disappointed. Also, Blerp want "proof" of the warped discs and bowed sleeves. Meaning sending videos and pictures. As if I have the inclination to do any of that. Requesting a full refund instead. Life is too short and I've wasted enough of mine already. surely that's not that much of a big deal? if you've got time to complain here/to bleep/on discogs, you can surely take a short photo/video... my sleeves are also a little bowed; warping the discs a bit in the process. i wonder if it's bit of a design flaw? just having the weight of 12x12"s accruring in the bottom of the thinnish inner sleeves maybe adding some sort of curvature to the sleeves and hence vinyl too? they play fine for me though. could probably sort out by leaving the whole thing horizontal for a while. i don't envy warp dealing with pressing 12 LPs of delicate/dynamic music, ensuring the quality control of that whole process and then having to package up these huge boxes and send them out into the world, completely at the whim of the's world's postal systems. It would have been less of a big deal if Australia, New Zealand and the US hadn't got their box sets many, many days earlier than mine, at which point it sold out, and if I hadn't elected to work from home on the day the set was supposed to arrive, then didn't. And now they want to send replacement discs so I have to take 12 photos plus video of each faulty item. I'd rather just send the damn thing back and be done with it. It's a shame too as I listened to one disc briefly and pressing sounds excellent. (Also, these messages take seconds...)

I mean, the label IS Warp records right? Yeah, but Warp. Not Warped...
-
Yup. As expected. Every single disc in my vinyl box is horribly badly warped. After reading Discogs, I'm not even going to pretend to be surprised by this.
-
I hope not! One of them ran into my car last week...
-
4:15pm - 5:15pm for me. At the other half's office. Finally...

Nothing, and no update on the DPD tracking here, even though the mail sent on Saturday stated delivery on Monday. Not impressed... Thanks for answering. I've got the exact same issue. In fact, the wording from DPD makes it seem like they haven't even received the parcel from Bleep yet Same boat as both of you. I've just contacted Bleep to follow up on this as - quite frankly - this is just crappy service.
-
Had some funky ochre-related ting, but since got a confirmation from DPD, same date as yrself. Same. Ochre is the warehouse I think.
-
Finally got my notification. DPD delivery for Monday.

More comprehensive images of the vinyl box over on Discogs now.

This week supposedly.

S Y N E R G Y (Seriously I have heard managers use this term without irony in the last 6 months, which blew my mind) Urgh... I just felt my kidneys cringe. I've actually heard "blue sky thinking" used several times at my previous job. Redundancy turned out to be a blessing!

I work for a development company and I hear that word daily. It's watered down and soulless... so definite corporate connotations here. Maybe it's a regional thing? I guess in that context your comment makes sense, yeah. Sorry. But hey, there's much worse out there right? :)

I really like T69 Collapse, and the video does what so few videos do these days: perfectly complements and enhances the track. Like Alex Rutterford's Gants Graf video, which this reminds me of. He's doing what he does best here. Making what would be otherwise inaccessible wonderfully accessible. This track bangs.
-
There's nothing 'corporate' about the word 'innovative'...
-
I see they've had time to apply the Collapse EP 3D effect to the artwork of a load of other releases on Bleep. How very silly...
-
Finally - purchase complete! Blimey... Incidentally - Bleep.com seems to be running slightly faster than the Aphex Twin Bleep store.
-
Apache Tomcat error now. Looks like they finally remembered to try turning it off and on again...
-
Indeed. And it isn't even technically a buying experience yet.........
-
-
Yup. The whole thing has died completely. When will they ever learn?
-
Blerp go plop plop...
-
Track 3 appears to be "MT 1 t 29 r 2". It may not be in the listing at the bottom of the press release, but you can see it listed near the centre of the AFX logo.
