In before the guy flips it on discogs.

sorry mate, another forum member beat you to itā€¦and I sold it for exactly the price I paid for it :smile:

Balls :tired_face::tired_face::tired_face:

That seems to just go to their profile and activity. Where is the PM option from there? Not been here since the new site launched so full noob again!

just click on their name in the thread, itā€™ll bring up a small box with Message on it

the thing in the red oval

Received my copy today. When I got it out of the mailbox I also got it with the Urban Myth EP from Iglew which was separately packaged, but both were damaged and looked hastily packaged fs. :fearful: :angry: The Iglew EP wasnā€™t damaged and the vinyl was fine, but there was a hole in the cardboard packaging of the Vivek record. The sleeve was all damaged and looked flattened by something, and the vinyl was warped to hell (ok that was an overstatement but still it was warped). Iā€™m not sure whoā€™s at fault, but I ordered both records directly from the labels. Or who knowā€™s, maybe the mailmanā€™s pissed at me for buying so much records and shit.

Sorry to hear that. I received my copy yesterday aswell and it was fine. But Iā€™m sure some shipping companies store their goods in less-than-optimal ways; DHL for example.

The tunes are weighty and great fun in the mix. Good release.

Repress of SYSTM007 up for pre-order on unearthed:

Looks like 009 will also get a repress release on the same day:

This may seem alittle odd, but who the fuck is buying all these records? Like we are on the ā€œbiggestā€ dubstep forum in the world you could count like I duno 20 or 30 of them across this site.

Theres no real nights outside of the BIG ones like system and dmz (in London atleast) , nobody really talks about it much anymore yet there is still thousands of records being sold out in 1hour windows.

Loads of EU or USA buyers? Im just horribly out of touch?! Ive no idea.

tanmushimushi?

if iā€™m not broke, i try to get my copy

people using forums are a minority in 2015 thoughā€¦ System has 7k fans on Facebook, add the vinyl-only exclusive effect which is both attraction in itself for some and an incentive to buy as soon as itā€™s released, itā€™s not that surprising that they sell out quickly!

Ah yeah I guess. Its bizarre to feel like im in a bubble of some kind but I guess that comes from being in London.
I imagine Brighton, Leeds and Bristol you can run into the same guys over and over, but here you can completely miss huge chunks just cos you havenā€™t linked via a mutual friend on FB or something.

Like I could book ( and will) the guys putting out these records and be half scared nobody would show as ā€œdubsteps deadā€ Unless bizarrely you are DMZ and can bring out anyone with a passing interest haha
The same way I dont know whos buying all the stuff like Arkital and Tempas new stuff? Nobody ever talks about it on here and youd think of all places it would be on here haha
I only know my mate has the Thelem artikal bit, the rest kind of blur into dungeon plodstep sounds every preview I whack on.

Slight tangent but w/e

Thatā€™s a good point, when you read comments on FKOF and other dubstep/bass blogs or pages, people are really excited about releases. Doesnā€™t matter whether the label is established, or fresh and rather unknown. On here, it seems only a few still care about and follow the 140 scene. Iā€™d say most dubstep listeners are active on Facebook and social media, but definitely not on the DSF.

think ill make a thread about it.

Jealous as fuck I cant go System :frowning: I know Im going to Glastonbury but fuck if it was a week laterā€¦ GOD. oh well.

yh true, and i think thats unfortunate. its more of a musicforum now, i mean its cool but i would appreciate a sceneinternal forum way more

Represses of Backyard / Tic and the recent VIVEK release are also up on Redeye.

Guess Iā€™ll cop another copy of SYSTM009 :stuck_out_tongue:
