Lost Loefah Dubs

[LeanSound]

currently debating wether or not I should try to cop one. would save me a lot of nerve to just sit back and accept it.
maybe it's only in-store...

i think you should just sit back

I'll do it if you do it

Yeah alright, let's none of us even bother... i won't try either

Yeah it's not going to stop people playing it out once a HQ vinyl rip comes out

w/ever - be nice to get one but glad it's dropping at last

(does anyone know the reasoning for picking this label btw?)

Maybe ties from that Horsepower Productions release BH 06.5 ?
I hadn't even heard of Berceuse Heroique before all this

Great... it made it to Fact now it will be even more stressful

Thing is when it's that limited a decent rip will be floating around online very quickly. If they press like 1000 and say that's it fair enough.. But 300 is just pretentious. When it crashes the websites of honest jons and idle hands all involved will be giving themselves self celebratory blowjobs, for a likkle while they can all feel like superstars.

Will still attempt to buy.

[jrkhnds]

I can't think of a sound reason to limit that plate to 300. unless they're all broke and plan on making sick £££ selling a back stock on disco-gees.

[hirszu]

I think the reason why they're pressing only 300 is this

This is just trolling of the highest order. In all these threads when an old dub gets finally released someone's always complaining about it getting released, it will kill the magic of the tune blah blah blah... I've never agreed with that since I don't live in a place where there are dubstep events so my chances of hearing these dubs in a dance are 0%. So yeah, when they do get released I'm happy.

For the first time however, if they really put out 300 copies and never repress, I would agree that it would have been better if they stayed as dubs.

Because honestly, this is not funny AT ALL.

[jrkhnds]

hell, even Badman VIP got 1000 copies pressed and sold.

[Muncey]

I don't think rarity can be a reason for 300 cause why press it at all if you wanna keep it rare? 300 is too few for that reason imo.. 7 billion people in the world is pressing 1000 really gunna ruin the rare aspect of the plate? Neinty.

Pretentious.

Still it's up to the label and loefah what they do, can't complain too much I just don't see the point. Unless their key audience is profit seeking discog sellers.

i'm still a bit hmmm about the decision to release badman vip as an ep with a bunch of new tracks, allow it dont wanna spend 15 quid don't care about ur namaste

[willferal]

This is just how gizmo operates though, it's how all the BH stuff is. He's a contratian who likes pissing people off but 100% of the stuff on his labels is amazing so it's tough shit really. To be fair to him there is some stuff up online at hard wax, but I can't see this one being there.

that's your decision then. the people who wanted to own Badman VIP got the chance, and I don't think a lot of heads had to miss out. BH & Loe are making the active decision to press and release an amount clearly not sufficient to make up for the demand... which, in my book, is a bit of a dick move. just as bad as labels claiming "OMG LIMITED TO 300 GRAB ONE QUICK" when they know fully well they'll have a hard time selling 250 copies.

imho go the Bandulu route, press 300 with full artwork and press another 500 or so whitelabel copies.

[RKM]

true true tbh i wasn't buying records at the time so just bought the wav which i fully regret now

[CreamLord]

Wtf 300 copies, this has to be a joke

[orangeluva56]

yeah for real im never gonna be able to buy this.

well if you rip it make sure you get a good rip cuz the one for Western sucked

[CreamLord]

If it was released this Wednesday I'd have a chance cause I was at home sick so I'd have just spam refreshed the site in bed. But ffs I don't get home till like half 4 usually

[Marcus]

How so? Everyone has a chance to get a copy of it since it's not a instore exclusive. I'm pretty sure the pressing quality of Western was bad.

[scherou]

its going to sell out in under 5 minutes im guessing

[scherou]

so anyone whos in work or whatever will likely miss it

[skitz_0]

anyone have an idea of how they'll be sold?
will they go up on honest john's / idle hands' website at midnight ( ) or thereabouts?

[scherou]

im guessing theyll go up when the store opens at like 9 or 10 or whatever
