  1. 1. Would You Be Willing To Pay Up To 25.00USD For A Digital Rip of The Unreleased Caustic Window LP?



Recommended Posts

"apparently all agree that it's a good chance to give the hardcore fans a unique chance to own something that will never see the light of day otherwise."

 

Nice.

gotta say glad to be wrong

 

I won't add the 'here' after wrong because that would be like suggesting that i'm never wrong anywhere else and only osci would do something like that. [-;

 

- I am glad it all worked out somehow, next thing for me to be cynical about is the kickstarter rules, as was mentioned, kickstarter has form for mucking around crowdfunding efforts (although something this under the radar), doing things like not releasing funds to that game developer which crushed the project etc. Maybe you should use startjoin instead, it's new to the scene and founded by max keiser so would be less likely to do strange things to a campaign that involves buying and ripping and reselling a music item. The advantage of the kickstarter is broader exposure to the project, and a more established name in that sphere, so i can understand why you'd want to use them.

 

- High Quality photos of the vinyl and packaging would be nice in the pack too.

 

- Are you doing a campaign video? I want to see the face of JR, pictures of that are rarer than sightings of CW. heh E-;

 

- Take names here before you do the kickstarter or those on here will be mightily disapointed if they miss out to some 18yr old edm kid from Alabama that decided to pay the money on a drunken whim.

Wow, great work. I appreciate this a lot and will be waiting for the kickstarter link. I do wonder about MFM and AB5 though.

Apart from the unexpected news- well, why take a rip from the vinyl?

Are the original masters lost?

 

Joyrex, shed some light please.

when Richard was lucid dreaming whilst driving around in his tank, he accidentally crashed into his bank vault and squashed the DAT tapes under the treads of the tank

 

:(

WOW

Does noone else find it strange that grant posted the kickstarter thing at xltronic? and now we're making a kickstarter for this?

Agree with this completely.

Joyrex, shed some light please.

Wasn't the Q-Chastic EP master lost or destroyed as well? And if they still have it, they probably can't be bothered and let us make a decent rip. I'm totally satisfied with that though.

 

Really digging the charity part as well. Just a great deal this. Everybody wins.

Nah, I reckon it was probably what he was aiming for. Giving subtle cryptic hints is his thing I guess?

If he was intending a kickstarter all along, there would've been more direct ways of going about it.

well yeah exactly. It just seems odd to me... =/

This is incredible! Super stoked... Unfortunately, my bank account has 17 cents until my next paycheck in a week, so ill prob miss out on this /: unless its still open a week from today... Nonetheless, amazing news! Thanks so much to Joyrex, Grant, and Richard for all of this! Btw, unreleased caustic window lp is different than the unreleased joyrex tape, right?

Some songs I made with my fingers and electronics. In the process of making some more. Hopefully.

Yeah, agreed. We've been on this roller-coaster for a couple of days now. No need to get doused with ice water at the end.
