    Good point, but Antic also has a point that it is a bit weird when it is available cheaper for 8€ on another place. In the end, the point of bandcamp is supporting the artist, so it will be between 8 and 10 euros. Not sure yet. Minimum 8 and people CAN pay more if they want sounds more reasonable (but people never use that option anyway) :p 

    I was referring to the physical copies to be honest, hence the excitement  :wub:

    But the main reason that Bandcamp became popular on the first place was the honest charging scheme and the direct support to the artists. Something you don't really get with Google play, Spotify etc. 

    EDIT: I thought when you mentioned cd you meant a physical copy :)

    Actually, we are thinking of asking 8€ for a full cd on bandcamp for Classic Goa Trax.

    YEs yes yes, even more. Even more to be honest. If someone is willing to pay ridiculous amounts of money for used copies just for collecting reasons (and the artists/labels get 0) I don't see why we shouldn't pay a bit more for a re-release.

    I know I haven't posted for a while on my "Listening to my whole catalogue series" but it is a bit difficult to prepare a post everyday. So, I decided to do it in batches.

    And we continue with Globular.

    For his last 3 albums he used to Kickstarter platform to print physical copies (and vinyl) and thank goodness for that. It's the music you love and expect but special mention goes to his last album. He showed a level of maturity and constrain that really pushed Entagled Everything to the next level.

    I still remember the first time I heard Globular's Colours of the Brainbow. What it sounded back then like a combination of Ott, Shpongle and Entheogenic and I was wondering why no one else had tried that before. And he just kept delivering, release after release, with no drop on quality (rather the contrary) and always for free. Having his first releases printed in cd is like a dream. Add an amazing cover artwork from Luc that tells a story and it's not "just" amazing graphics and you have a gem.

    i was still listening to all genres then, right through the tech, hard house/trance era late 90', 2000's, throw breaks dnb rock and metal in that pot
    not sure how i survived the extreme diversity, or the cost of buying all those albums (going by how many i had aprox 1000 a year for 20 years

    1000/year? So if we take the money factor out of the equation, you would need to listen to 3 new albums every day just to keep up. :huh:

    Honest question: People that collect so much music do they actually enjoy listening to music? Or is it just the collecting process? Whatever your answer I have already made up my mind :P

    You got me onto the Reactivate series. I'm through vol 1, 2 & 3. Had no idea I could like techno this much. 

    I'm glad someone benefited from this :) Hopefully you will find other music as well although the most interesting part is back in Greece.

    BTW, I haven't stopped listening to my collection, just hadn't had the time to post updates yet.

    Greg Hunter - μTantra

    2.5 years, 6 Kickstarter projects and 7 releases. Digital Reprints started as a dream, materialised as a reality and expanded to an obsession. An obsession to bring as much quality music possible to the physical media. Media in the form of extremely limited (but still affordable) box sets, with cover art that does justice to the music and compliment each other in an onomatopoetic way. Just check our ratings on Discogs.

    I am asking for your help once more. Please remember that even if you don't plan to pledge please do share on your social media. Kickstarter relies on word to mouth advertisement so it really important. Short link

    There are so many artists out there that I would love to see their music printed on cds. But it makes it so hard for me to put them on a priority list because for me all of them are on the same spot, first place. So, to make it easier, I decided to change my way of thinking slightly. It is time to surprise people, go back to the roots, to the artists that started this music genre, the legends.And the next project is a Legend. He was creating Psychedelic Dub when it didn't even exist as a genre. He worked with The Orb, Youth, Killing Joke, Derrick May, Juno Reactor, Juan Atkins and in groups such as Dub Trees and Celtic Cross.He has been involved in too many projects to list. He has used many monikers to present his musical creations, Dubsahara, Subsurfing, Metasurfing, Waveshaper, Alien Soap Opera and more. He has been involved in so many collaborations leaving his sonic signature. At this point everyone knows that I am talking for Mr Greg Hunter so any more words are unnecessary really.

    I am asking yet again your help, to print some of his music in a beautiful and rare box set.

    The 4xCD box set will include the following releases:

    CD1: Dubsahara - Geonosis

    CD2: Oïd Mü - The Back End of Nowhere, Toploader

    His recent collaboration with Craig Musham & Simon Lord 

    CD3: Organismic - Primordial Super Fly

    and with Darren Sangita

    CD4: Spectralite - Temple Of Stars

    Plus 6 bonus tracks from Oïd Mü which will be available only digitally.

    The artwork will be designed by the talented Hakan Hisim. It will be based upon his ongoing art project, Universal Transmission. I found that the mysticism and the linguistic cipher used on the series fits so well with the tone set by Greg's sonic waves. Don't you agree?

    This is our chance to bring something really unique and proudly present it on our music library. 

    Let's start, shall we?

    Soon Bandcamp link
