Vinyl On Demand label S/D and worship thread

Sema box set sounds amazing.. wonder why Rob Haigh is ok with a vinyl box when he's turned down all offers for CD reissues (based on lack of master tapes..)

yeah i wondered that too.

new ones are being mailed out now, I see.

my john bender "book" just arrived. i can't express how much i had been looking forward to this and it doesn't disappoint. i was worried the hard to find / unreleased stuff wouldn't live up to how i hoped it would be but it completely exceeds all expectations. a joy!

as if I could get any more excited, good news!

man surface mail is slow... anybody on the West Coast gotten these yet?

also,

I would hazard a guess that the box is going to consist of unreleased/archive stuff, like that Sema CD that came as a bonus with Silent Storm. Which would kind of bum me out, but I will still buy it.

still waiting...

YESSS

I will report back later, although my shipping box was torn open on two corners everything seems to have come through unscathed.

OK I'm not sure how I feel about this new "folder" design. I liked the big monolithic boxes, so imposing on the shelf.

4 sides into John Bender and it sounds worlds better than the sketchy rips from Mutantsounds. Plus, Pop Surgery has extended versions of more than half the songs! Bender wrote a fascinating essay about his history and influences, might post some of it on the JB thread (I was surprised to read abt just how much he is a devotee of the Canterbury scene and Robert Wyatt in particular).

still totally immersed in the bender box. dying to know what's on the schnitzler set.

still excited about the Sema box. From the '82-'84 period, so it looks like it will contain the Le Rey material.. which will be great - especially if there's unreleased stuff too!

^ ditto! it's the first VoD product i'm excited about, tbh.

yeah my ears perked up when I saw "The Complete Recordings", I fervently hope to finally own a decent version of "Three Seasons Only".

Thinking about it, there must be at least some unreleased stuff on the VoD box - seeing as most of Le Rey releases were more like 12"/mini-lps...

VOD100-103 (see list above) are available for pre-order now, plus CD reissues of a few earlier VOD titles now out of print on vinyl, notably the excellent Broken Flag box set.

damn I gotta pass on a sub this year again, and just cherrypick the Sema box.

anyone got the Sema box yet?

Rising From The Red Sand!!!! And an early Lustmord box, hell yeah. And Frohmader. Tons of stuff I've never heard of, more than usual.

http://www.vinyl-on-demand.com/index.php?ln=2&navid=6&shopid=32&vorschau=&sid=

got my Laughing Hands and Un-Kommuniti boxes in the mail yesterday, have yet to dive in. It seems like he's back on schedule with these releases.

I never knew Tim Gane had a cassette culture background!

One VoD release I wish got more attention is the Campingsex album. I guess it's an outlier for the label in the sense that, however noisy it may be, it's still "just" a guitar-based post-punk record. It's great, though. Very heavy. At certain points it even reminds me of Kreator and German thrash in general, the crushing momentum of tracks like "Guten Morgen". Thurston Moore is supposedly a big fan.

that looks good, surprisingly affordable through US channels.

2014: 10 LPs of 1983-87 Muslimgauze with 220 page book, Robert Haigh 2LP (guessing that this is the LAYLAH records)

2015: 10-LP sets from Pierre Henri and Francois Bayle

start saving now, kids!

Just ordered the Rising From The Red Sand box.

mmm now I have four new box sets of primo industrial noise sitting in my room.

which one should I listen to first? totally unfamiliar w/Frohmader's work. I'll probably rip the Rising From The Red Sands box before sitting through 4 LPs of unreleased Hafler Trio.

The Lustmord set has their 1st album, but does not appear to include the Lustmordekay cassette at first glance, which seems weird. I don't think that stuff was on the Dark Vinyl reissue CD either.

i see they're releasing a dada computer lp - i had some post-prod involvement in an earlier reissue of that, it's very good

excited about this:

- PASCAL COMELADE Degeneration Electronics 1975-83

gosh this Muslimgauze box sounds great, I have originals of some of these and they did a good job remastering (as usual).

kind of a controversial move not to include the original artwork imo, I have to assume that was a move to preserve some of the "value" of the original vinyl releases.

Robert Rich's box of early stuff sounds great, primordial drone

haven't broken into the Comelade or Alien Brains yet, but as nerve pylon notes the Comelade box is super exciting.

my personal metric for success in the professional world is someday being able to afford shit from this label

Smegma have to be the most overrated of all these bands, I sure don't need 5 LPs worth.

I was wrong about this, and that box is great

the Comelade box is fantastic. so great to have all of this. i have the Fluence lp (Tapioca reissue)—the remastering is stellar.

now, who can translate the french articles in the booklet?

- RÜDIGER LORENZ The SynTape-Years 1980-1983 5Lp-Box

^^ umm yes please!!

I looked that guy up on Discogs, never heard of him before & it sounds very interesting.

The stuff I've heard is nice warm post-berlin school stuff. Not all that goth/industrial but when it comes to analog electronics the lines can blur really easilly.

I'm really intrigued by this homemade new age-ish electronic stuff released on small/no labels in the early 80s. Enno Velthuys is another dude kind of in that vein, don't know if his stuff has been reissued. And K. Leimur, who has a newish anthology out on Numero group, i believe.

VOD142: BU/BU-MUSIKVERBREITUNG - Recordings 1980-1985
by HEUTE & DER MUSIKANT 4Lp/7inch/Booklet (ltd.400) 64,99 €

After 10 years of planning and intensive artists-convincing, a dream for many collectors of minimal/synth-music and VOD has become reality.
A Vinyl-Box with early 80’s audio formerly released only on super-rare and higly collectable Tapes or on 7inch by two of the most radical Minimal/Synth artists from South-Germany; Rolf Schobert and Georg Alfred Wittner with their projects Heute and Der Musikant (solo-project of Rolf Schobert with his name variations as Der Künftige Musikant, der Lustige Musikant, der Ewinge Musikant).
Almost 4 hours of greatest minimal/synth-based-tunes (2 Lp’s each by Heute and Der Musikant) compiled by VOD from more than 10 different early-80’s Tape-Releases, all released and distributed on their own Bu/Bu Musikverbreitung Label in the early to mid 80’s.
The Label and artists released their very own style of minimal „Präzisionsmusik“, music as unique as Minimal/Synth can only sound, standing the test of time, managing the path between the past and the future („Zwischen Gestern und Morgen“).Emotionally loaded rhythmic straight-forward tracks, with superbly schizophrenic, antagonistic and neurotic lyrics such as „Traurig-Lustig“.

VOD142.1/2 der MUSIKANT Musikantenmusik 1980-1984 2Lp (ltd.100) 25,99 €

DER MUSIKANT is Rolf Schobert from South Germany. His music from the early 80’s and his incredibly rare Tape-Releases are a must-have for every serious collector and lover of Minimal/Synth and/or NDW-Music.
His purely minimal straight-forward powerful synth-sounds in combination with his extraordinary and highy emotional vocals and are so distinct and have a unique character. Rolf is also one half of famous HEUTE together with Georg Alfred Wittner. This limited 2Lp which combines almost all this great track recorded between 80-84 can also be bought as part of a 4Lp-Set called "Bu/Bu Musikverbreitung“.

VOD142.3&/4 HEUTE Präzisionsmusik 1982-1985" 2Lp/7inch (ltd.100) 29,99 €

HEUTE is an ongoing minimal/synth-project run by Georg Alfred Wittner alias GAW and Rolf Schobert alias der Musikant. Since the beginning of the 80’s HEUTE released several remarkable and outstanding Tapes on their own Bu/Bu Musikverbreitungs-Label and on other Labels such as Biber Records, Schrott, Kassetto Fix and Intoleranz! The Latter released their classic Tape “Noch ist Polen nicht verloren from 1983. This limited 2Lp which combines almost all their great track recorded between 82-85 can also be bought as part of a 4Lp-Set called "Bu/Bu Musikverbreitung“.

VOD144: V/A Magnetophonics - Australian Underground Music 1978-1984 7Lp-Box w. large booklet 99,99 Euro (ltd.400) 99,99 €

Massive and comprehensive overview of Australian Underground Music released as Tapes/Cassettes or Vinyl between the late 70s and early to mid 80s.

The first 2 Lps called 'Edge City Broadcasts' are Andrew Lonsdale’s (Browning Mummery) selection of rare and essential tracks representing the great variety and diversity of sounds inside the Australian Underground Music scene of the period.

Lp3 is dedicated to one side each of label recordings from the Lymph Products catalogue (The Horse He's Sick, Cerebral Haemorrhage, Kurt Volentine, Cut With The Kitchen Knife); & the home label of Browning Mummery--Boxmusik Tapes.

Lp4 is compiled by Garry Bradbury (former member of Severed Heads) with focus on bands, projects and collaborations that released on the famous Terse Tapes label such as Wet Taxis, Rhino Rhino, and Pissy Relay Switches.

Lp5 contains the split LP of Hiroshima Chair and a selection of M-Squared-Label related bands such as Systematics, Scattered Order, Ya Ya Choral, and The Makers of the Dead Travel Fast.

Lp6 and Lp7 are fully dedicated to the earliest recordings by Tom Ellard’s Severed Heads, containing the highly collectable LPs 'Clean', 'Ear Bitten' and the 'Side 2' tape.

The 7 LPs are accompanied by a large and extensive 48 page LP-sized booklet with lots of valuable information, insights and photos/scans compiled and written by David Courtney.

A must-have for those that are willing to explore and dig into the universe of Australian Underground Music of the late 70s/early 80s.

Announcement on the website that VOD will be "terminating its mission" next year. Can't say I'm surprised, as the well of early industrial/noise/cassette culture recordings must be running dry by now. Still, I'll miss them, and I treasure the Broken Flag, C93, NWW and Nitsch box sets.

sad but inevitable news. i've always had issues around the exclusivity of their releases but overall it has been an amazing label that has introduced me to so much music i'd never have heard otherwise.
