oscillik Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Not with my copy of 'steps. i feel like i remember a sticker being outside the shrink wrap, is that not the case? yep it was the case with Oversteps, and is still the case with Exai. Yeah I would have tried to remove the sticker too; I usually dislike text on album covers. Also, my copy of Oversteps was sticker-less. There was a sticker on the cellophane to say "AUTECHRE - OVERSTEPS" that is the sticker I'm referring to. there was no sticker for tracklisting.

modey Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 I don't recall mine having that. I would have kept it otherwise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oscillik Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 eBay item sealed has exactly the same sticker mine had, and indeed all Oversteps vinyl copies had, since there was no barcode on the artwork. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

awepittance Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 i still don't understand why anyone would remove a sticker from a paperstock which is rough, not smooth at all. Clearly it's going to cause damage if you remove it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly it's going to cause damage if you remove it. I just got mine, and I have to say the sticker kinda doesn't match the ridiculous beauty of the rest of the packaging. I'll take it as a hint to leave it on there now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awepittance Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 i like the sticker, it sort of reminds me of what they call an 'eco-wallet' where you can get a very cheap run of CD or CDr made on a spindle and you insert them yourself into recycled cardboard sleeves with a full color sticker you put on yourself. Its just a much nicer higher budget versions of that same aesthetic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modey Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 hmm, maybe. On another note, the overprinted colours on the inner sleeve packaging give me a total design/print boner. The artwork on this album has clearly been designed for a physical product as opposed to just screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest disoriental express Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 I just realized how non-dark this cover looks..... It's really in a weird space... in between.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modey Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Yeah it's an entirely different colour to what I expected. I'm a little disappointed with the finish of the outer cover though; it's a bit patchy looking. The inner sleeves make up for it by far though.

thehauntingsoul Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 I love this artwork quite a lot. I like the sleeve stuff going on, similar to what they did with the special edition Quaristice album. It's like a mini-vinyl package. I seriously would consider getting the Vinyl because of how sexy it is but the completionist in me would not be satisfied until I owned every Ae vinyl and I have a feeling I'll never find the vinyls for the early stuff. Love the artwork to death though, especially the inner sleeves and the disc printings themselves. I was having an Ae boner and inspecting all of my Autechre CDs today and decided to take this pic. 20 Years of Ae: Oh and please tell me if I'm missing something. I'd love to somehow get Quadrange into a jewel case with the cover artwork but I haven't decided the best way to do that yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Chogg Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 still don't have my copy First time properly ordering from bleep. I'm in western Canada, are they always this shitty? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thehauntingsoul Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Well it takes about a day or two to ship from here to BC so assuming that's where you are I'd be surprised if you don't have it by Friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zlemflolia Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 I know it's bad to say but Do you think this vinyl would be good to buy incase they run out of stock for re-selling later Like with BoC and RDJ originals. Or do they not rise much in value to those insane prices? I've never really purchased AE vinyl before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We R Are Why can fetch quite a bit, same for Amber. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modey Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 They usually sell out on Bleep fairly quickly. Pretty easy to find on discogs but yeah, might be more expensive. I paid $60 for Amber around 4 years ago and it's in great condition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
