TwiddleBot Posted July 8, 2010 Report Share Posted July 8, 2010 (edited) (Just coincidentally timed with the other Tri 3 E thread) OK so the other day my friend and I are hanging out and I remembered that about.. 11 years ago.. Getting the Tri Repetae++ double CD set and opening it up. It had quite possibly one of the oddest chemical odors of any CD I've ever purchased. I actually associate that smell with opening up the Tri Repetae jewel case. I think one of my friend's copies of the album had that odor to it as well initially. I wonder if it was a matter of the ink, something to do with the pressing, or completely random. Did anyone else who bought the north American version of this album stumble upon this olfactory peculiarity as well?

baph Posted July 8, 2010 Report Share Posted July 8, 2010 I sort of vaguely remember Tri Repetae ++ smelling like Bhopal 1984, now that you mention it.

auxien Posted July 9, 2010 Report Share Posted July 9, 2010 don't remember it having a scent, but my memory is terrible. however, my copy of Sonic Youth's Washing Machine still smells the same...they used some weird kinda of paper for the booklet, and even though it's around 15 years old, it smells just the same.

Guest hahathhat Posted July 11, 2010 Report Share Posted July 11, 2010 i enjoy the smell of new plastic shower curtains. the cat5 from my ez-flo carton of cat5 smells the same way. i recall 2600 magazine smelling nice. these days i cannot smell things as much, my boss told me to stop.
