LP5 Potential Reissue

Well this is pleasant news 

Well there we go. Bleep, Boomkat, AE STORE and Warp emails for Chiastic Slide and LP5 all came in at once. Amazing news as I needed LP5 in particular on vinyl again after my last copy got destroyed by the dog.

Bought from the AE STORE where downloads are available immediately.

I'm not surprised there's no Confield though. I imagine they're batching these together as Ae's transitional period and will release Confield, Draft and Untilted together.

RUN

I would quite like the LP5 CD back because I plan to trip with my lady soon and I remember what a profound effect holding that casing had on me when I was listening, and I would like to recreate for her...

very aware lol, old hand at this. 

Make a separate thread and let us know how it goes

Pls

Maybe I can convince the wife to get heroically stoned with me while I blast out Chiastic and look at the vinyl artwork, just like old times.  This is going to be a tough sell though.

no CD

Awesome news, ordered. Chiastic Slide might be my fave artwork, so full size will be a treat. 

Petition for mods to change the thread title to "Chiastic Slide / LP5 Reissues"

ESTIMATED SHIPPING ON 19 NOVEMBER 2021 FROM UNITED KINGDOM.

Gonna have to wait for the local record shop to stock this. Been hearing quite a lot of Brexit tax horror stories. 

Sweet.

Happy with my press of Chiastic Slide, and just about to hit buy on LP5.  Great stuff cheers ae

*edit*

Fuck it, im gonna wait and actually go to a record store and buy this from them instead. 

Ordered both, still got my Chiastic Slide copy bought in 2003 but it's pretty beat up. Now, can I has Confield Werp ?

Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit sniffing glue

good thing about no CD reissues are that because CDs are the perfect physical medium my CDs i bought 20 years ago and have played hundreds of times are still in great condition

In terms of the age old question 'Is it washable?', an lp5 CD case would most probably be more washable than lp

I got my LP5 CD second hand, and previous owner had scrubbed the sticker off so I just had a blank case.

I like the grey card of the vinyl reissue.

it's been ages since i looked at my cd but i remember the sticker having some amusing language on it right?

I don't know, see above

It's definitely not washable.

LP5 was my second ae album and was my gateway.  I never had a copy with the black case tho, just a regular CD case with white inner sleeve that just has the track titles written down the side. It's the Nothing Records version I guess, so eh thanks again Trent, from my 13 year old self.  There's a small part of me that would like a copy with the black case but I haven't bought a CD in years so meh.

The non-American LP5 CD is pretty gorgeous in it's simplicity. I've always loved these photos of it: http://www.hardformat.org/4346/autechre-lp5/

^thats the same version i have, pretty sure i bought it at a Sam Goody’s or something here in the good ole US of A. maybe it was an import tho, not sure

edit: the vinyls do look good tho

The vinyl packaging was really good. I’d never owned anything quite like it at the time. Then the dog wazzed on it and my copy was gone forever…

this repress will be printed on better card stock too so less likely to fox like the original one did.

oh i was talking about the CD referenced above my post (^), i don't have any AE on vinyl. closest is the Gescom Skull Snap release.

just looked up the old vinyl on discogs and it looks basically like the new one. kinda thought maybe the old one had an outer sleeve or something. a vinyl with the same style plastic packaging as the CD actually would've been pretty cool for that i'd think, if weird/expensive to manufacture.

also the LP5 promo CD looks cool:

edit: this Warp CD repress looks a little cool too:

playing my copies of these albums today. still so future
