No mention of...

The Cavity Job master tape on eBay?

Well, since you brought it up, a link to it on Ebay would be nice...

Yeah I was searchin around and couldn't find it. I bid a trillion dollars

I'm holding off posting it in the completely vain attempt that I'll win the bid.

(I wont)

edit: welp, sorry mcbpete

Goddamnit.

but to be fair, it's more cool to have rather than really valuable. there's still hope for you.

Mmm I dunno I reckon there's gonna be some hardcore Ae fans out there that'll take this into the £100s. There's still two days do go as well and proper eBayers (i.e not me !) normally stick their bid in during the final minutes/seconds.

Anybody wanna drop some backstory?

Lush.

Be cool to own, but I don't have the spare cash lying about at present.... good luck whoever wants it

Cool

Engineer "Fitton" though, that's very cool.

Cool Item to have on your shelf I guess. I would be interested to hear how they differ from the released versions though.

Apologies to mcbpete for blowing up your spot too. I guess with the Exai anticipation it could have easily gone unnoticed.

i doubt there's a difference at all since it's a master from a label that released it. if it was a premaster tape or the multitracks then maaaaaaybe something would be there. or even if it was some sort of autechre's pre-label master. dunno.

Why would someone pay so much for this tape, it's not even particularly a good track...

dude no way, AE doing a python attempt sketch comedy intro with low quality microphones, unbeatable

yeah good point

I wouldn't even know WHAT unit I'd need to play that tape in, let alone be able to acquire one myself.


Also Cavity Job is pretty terrible.

I LOL everytime at the intro, it's just so well done. AE should have done comedy instead of idm

yeah it's kind of shocking what a drastic change from cavity job to incunabula, or even lego feet for that matter. I imagine a refreshing can of some super IDM liquid or something

Damn didn't win it but it went for a lot lower than I thought (£51). I was thinking it would easily hit three digits - i mean how bloody rare is this!

i always thought they just tried to have a quick cash-in on the club craze. lego feet clearly leads to incunabula, so i guess cavity job 12" was a one-off.

I want to hear the original version of these tracks with the next-level-for-1991 distorted percussion they've mentioned in interviews
