This proves that IDMonstahz are the truest of all 'dance' fans tbh

Someone paid €299 for the metal box version of Quaristice lol.

 

I have the Plastikman set, didn't realize it had gone up in value.

It says records but there are cassettes on this list. Does records just mean "music" like "record store"

[Soloman Tump]

And it's also "some of" not definitively the most expensive, just the ones the RA guys can write something about

Yeah that irks me too - I suppose they did that for more clicks? "Releases" would have been too vague I suppose.

I dig their link at the bottom for great albums you can get for under $5

Totally forgot about that special Syro release. Remember going into the ballot and actually hoping I wouldn't get picked as I was low on funds that month. Anyone here got it from the ballot?

I know Fumi got one

I named about 7 of these before I even read the article lol. Just the biggies- surprised more later techno isn't on there but that list is just what I thought, rare Chicago house, early UR shit and IDM stuff.

 

I have that plastikman thing but due to how poorly it was made all the CDs are unreadable and the case is split. F u Richie. I'll still suck ur dick tho

What's this 'audiophile' pressing of drugs then?

What's this 'audiophile' pressing of drugs then?

Cat label WARPLP92X - 4x180g 12'' limited to 1000 individually numbered copies

 

I've one but have the feeling it's worth considerably less as it was from a batch of a damaged copies Warp had in their warehouse that they sold a few years later for like 25 quid

 

Not sure on the difference in sound quality as I think the normal LP pressing was on 180g vinyl too

 

EDIT nope, clearly I have a non-X version as Ron Manager seemed to have got one in the same batch:

 

I have the non-x version, but it's a slightly damaged leftover warehouse copy Warpmart sold a few years after the original release, and the bottom of the box has a 5" tear along the seam. As such, I consider it to be extremely limited as it was probably only one of a few dozen copies Warp sold in this fashion. £7000. PM me.

I had both at one point, virgin vinyl version has less surface noise. I kept the virgin vinyl one, of course
