just registered to say this
i like his music and thought i'm going to buy this one. his first vinyl release. well expensive but okay. then got a email from record shop stating that ala you managed to order this, it's sold out actually - we'll refund. went back to discogs to check out if anyone still selling it for a decent price, but then saw prices have been gone up to 80 euros. well fuck this shit then, i ain't gonna pay that much. mala and his limited dmz shit can suck it. looks like he doesn't want to spread the music, to make it possible for as much as possible people to listen and BUY (doesn't repress dmz and doesn't release it web altough many many people and fans would like). surely he would get more fans...but no ....he wants to be uptight and rare and limited and elite and such. well since i didn't get a chance to buy the vinyl release i pirated that album on flac and will burn it on a cd and saved the money that i'm going to spend on dnb rls-s instead. i think i'm actually better of that i didn't spend so much money on that vinyl - it ain't that good either..

Exactly....someone's throwing a hissy fit and being a crybaby because they missed out on the box

Revolution is the one, tune is just madness. Ghost is a close second. The album itself ain't caught me yet, always been mad turned off by them almost cliché cuban pianos, but I'll bump the album a few more times still.

watch malas RBMA lecture to hear first hand why he doesn't re press his music and likes to keep it vinyl.
Pirating music is never cool either. The cost of a digital download is next to nothing in the grand scheme of things.

I read that the CD release has been pushed back to the 17th due to manufacturing issues.

In two minds whether I should spend £60 to get it off discogs. I'd wait until I get paid but it would probably be £100 by then.

I would most certainly NOT pay 60 quid for this.

did watch that lecture, but i seemed to miss the part where he told why doesn't repress. maybe you could point me in the right direction? i understand he doesn't like digital and i understand this, but why not comply with fans of his music and repress some dmz so their prices on discogs wouldn't be 100-200 quid and so....which are ridicilous, some people are trying to make a big money off his rare records. this music scene shouldn't be about this. like mala said himself: "i don't want to make money somethingsomethingsomething."
now if that album of his is really getting a repress, then i'm happy and i'll buy it. i don't give a fuck about the box, i just wanted vinyl.
