White Labels!

[Mr_Frost]

This label, White, is on fire recently. So many good artists.

The new DJ Unknown EP is class ...

[tge]

"Alicia" is the only white label I will ever want.

[_TraX_]

Do you live in Calgary?

Yes indeed I do good sir !

Likewise , that's just a pipe dream for me

[Be-1ne]

White labels are either:
1 - a pre-release or test pressing
2 - a bootleg
3 - a release with the cheapest label

You can't have a record pressed without a label and white ones are the cheapest option. Anything with a white label is usually limited in run, however does not mean it won't be repressed. The white label being known as a way to spot big DJs was through labels giving out test presses / pre-releases to the big name DJ's who originally championed new music and pushed new sounds to the public.

Bootlegs have been around a long time, starting with unauthorised recordings of concerts being put onto vinyl, through to bootlegs when tracks contained unauthorised samples stemming from the use of samplers in the late 80's. A lot of white labels today are used to keep costs down, I.e mala - eyes VIP.

[Samuel_L_Damnson]

In fact, to go even more minimalistic, somebody just turns up at your house, sings Eyez VIP and then runs off.

I though the name gave it away though. The label is white.

[Lichee]

So help a bruv out. Eyez V.I.P. coming in mail soon
Gonna my third purchase online, just wondering, everyone seems to hype about white labels, from what i can tell they're just white covers? I love minimal designs so i'm jacked to get Eyez, just curious as to if there is anything more to them getme???

<==

There.

I can't decipher a question unless it has a question mark at the end

also this thread is dildos

Well we're a white label label that make a limited run of 50 white coloured white labels and then 250 normal white labels that are all limited and we don't repress. What Be-1ne said is correct, it is cheaper to manufacture white labels, but we offset that with doing extremely smal runs of coloured vinyl.

This. Would be very interested.

[Be-1ne]

I would hazard a guess that when they placed their order that they ordered 50 colored (white) alongside the normal black ones.

[White Peach]

^^^ Nail on the head.

Once the machine had finished the press on the 300 run, we put in some white polymer and cleared the machine as much as we could without too much wastage, then pressed 50. That's why some of the records might have some small black smudges on them.

[NW_DUBAHOLIC]

Dub Dubstep

[White Peach]

Dub Dubstep

Dubby sounding dubstep. The track is vocalled by a well known reggae artist.

Jheez.

[NW_DUBAHOLIC]

Dubstep already has dub in its name because its dub influenced. Saying dubby sounding dubstep is kind of redundant. Not trying to be a dick just thought it was a funny term.

but not all dubstep sound like dub anymore does it ? If he just said that it's a dubstep tune it wouldn't be clear that it's a track that has a real dub/reggae feel to it
