We like to give more bang for ya buck here at Volatile

As i probably wont see you untill the night of Echo or Gaz West, would it be possible for you to bring one there. Am keen as fuck for this. When will "618" be re-opening. Dont have a credit card, so im up shit creek i guess

Yeah I can bring one in at Chemistry for you Luke.

As for "618 re-opening".. it ain't mate. 618 Records is closed forever.. kaputski!
Rumour has it there is some other people opening a shop in the same premises.. time will tell I suppose

In light of the fact that this has just been released, Mr. S will be playing on Mentazm this Monday night!

What a way to continue your big weekend!

Cheers buddy

As for 618...........


looks like im a gonna need a credit card now

Will there be vinyl copies of this available in Australia soon? I'm sure MTME would be keen for some...as I would be too

Don't apply for one just yet mate!

Ok.

Ben, I just collected 200 copies today and they will be available at MTME tomorrow and on Raveadelaid too

on a side note, does it usually take this long to go from mastered CD to vinyl?

what are you implying Woj?

there are many factors involved with the process and money is one of them. Also, we have to be happy with the test press etc before the full release run is done. So the whole process takes a while (even down to the artwork for the centre labels being done correctly etc)

I'm not implying anything, Im just curious how long it generally take to go from a finished tune on CD to a vinyl release, and seeing as I have never released a record I thought id ask someone that has.

OK, for all that need to know...

If things are amazingly running smooth it can take a couple of weeks to get the metal work done and then TP's cut. Once the label is happy with the cut then it can take around 7-10 days to do full run.

As the TP's were sent back here to Adelaide, that adds another couple of weeks to the process as we are so far away from the UK.

So from sending off the masters to the plant you would be looking at around a month if things were all smooth in the process

Don't suppose there will be a CD single for us plebs without turntables to buy?

Would love to get a copy on CD, I could buy it on vinyl and enjoy looking at it in the same way I enjoy looking at the Thrillseekers vinyl I own LOL

if i can get a brain and work at how to buy thru the raveadelaide shop successully im definately gonna pick up a copy of this the easy way

or, if I visit MTME @ Marion will they have copies ?

Sorry Alan, waste of money doing cd singles from our perspective

I will get the Vicious CD anyway ... maybe someone can burn the tracks to CD for me ... and I will make a donation to Volatile Records

Big ups Jarrod,Oddy and Bongas for making this happen Congrats to MattR and MattK on our first vinyl release
Big thanks to everyone on RA for the constant support

what the?

most massive label's now are doing exclusive only online releases. I dont think by you featuring it on trackitdown, will lose you any 12" sales.

There are still people who buy 12" and people who buy only download mp3s.

End of the day, youll be losing sales, because im sure someone in europe will rip it onto mp3 from the 12" and put it on p2p within a few weeks and all the people who may or were going to buy it, will just download it, because they dont want to be waiting 2 months to play a tune which is being trashed now.


thats just my view.

thanks Lucas but that's the way it's being done with this label.

Considering we still haven't had a payment from trackitdown fron October when we began digital the fastest way of getting return for now is by vinyl

Plus 2 of the 3 tracks are on trackitdown anyway so there ya have it!

When is your label starting Lucas? what's the hold up?

dont get angry Mr S

get VOLATILE

QUOTE (Mr S @ Jul 7 2005, 03:13 PM)

your joking...

nah get angry - its more fun to watch!

whats the hold up?

trackitdown(jon) emailed me like 2 days ago, with a contract....-

the difference being MR SUPER S... ive also had a contract sent by audiojelly, now awaiting beatport and one of the other major sites.

I figure, if Im going to do a digital label, Im doing to get max exposure and do it right.

Thats my way of doing it. 12" is old school, in the future I may do limited press, but sales have dropped a huge amount the past 24 months, so It's not something Im aiming for.


thanks for caring tho

*edit* ahh I didnt know 2 tunes were already on there, and you should bug them for payment :D 12" distributors are just as bad in payments from what Ive heard!

dont get angry Lucas

get VOLATILE

....mmm anyway ..
just like to say good to see this record flying off the shelves .. or out of the box
Bigs ups to Gurna for buying 2.... i reckon everyone should buy 2 ..

well for a run of 1000 units Lucas, the return on vinyl is far better than mp3 sales right now. Plus we looked into Beatport but the return isn't that great with the US $ but we are pursuing other UK sites as t's a better exchange rate but it's not my priority at the moment.

Yes I have contracts for Audiojelly, Tidy Digital, and a few others but the digital side still has a way to go before it's viable to focus more than vinyl for Voatile at this stage

Good to see you being nice one the board

Nathan bought 3
top shelf mate!

i bought 30 ...

Im always nice. :P

Returns on 12" are about 1pound each.. pressing is about 900 pounds or so for 1000 copies.
Mp3 sites, depending yeh only 50p to 70p depending where.

I just had written full abuse to SLIDE< but i noticed the cocksucker deleted his post!! I guess he thought he was being cool but realised he's a dickhead!

yeh, I'd do 12" if I could, but only really larger distributors do trance/house, and even tho half the stuff they press is wack, thats fine.. im just gonna go digital and then do 12" pressings later, once I can build a name & rep.

most of the UK producers we have chatted to have said the same thing .. MP3 sales are slow
Maybe in a few yrs it'll be the go but for now you definetely wont be making dolars from it ..

As if were doing this for the cash anyway... Its all about gettin them Volatile tunes out there and cranking

dunno is this is being a little optimistic but with that kinda response from teh greater hard dance community this could be tipped as hard dance release of the year

cant wait till me copy arrives

BIG UPS TO VOLATILE!! sick tunes, hopefully we will be hearing more of adelaide's own producers being played out now, instead of remixs of every other track!!

Thanks to the RA crew for your support. We really enjoyed putting this release together. Of course it would not have been possible without Volatile so big thanks musat go to Jarrod and Oddy for doing what they do.

Remember, its our sound, its your sound, its the sound of Adelaide NRG.

Cheers,
Matt

when do i ever play hard house? i know it's a quality record and is by far the best piece of hard house to come out in the longest time, but i simply don't play hh at all anymore.

no i simply can't afford to buy vinyl at the moment or i would.

Top tackle tunes here. Worth it just for The Claw, but The Settlement and Insaneo hold their own too.

Even I'm probably going to buy a copy... Great work on the success of a class first release guys.

Alan, If you're after the tunes on cd, I'm pretty sure they are all on the Adelaide Energy mix that Bongo released. Know Claw and Settlement definately are, but can't remember for sure if Insaneo is?? Luke? Jarrod?

It was an early version of the claw on that cd too, not quite as polished or banging as the one released on vinyl.

No idea where the hell you got that quote Lucas.
From a couple of quotes I've got I'd say you're full of shit.

Cough up!

And seriously, you ask for 99% of the abuse you cop on here, support the Volatile lads despite your differences.

Hey guys.

Got this one from Central up in Bris (steve got in about 10 copies Mr S) and am looking forward to playing it on sat night. Also gonna play another Adelaide produced piece of work courtesy of Dillusion.

The sound is fantastic, seriously hard NRG. Can't wait to get some more tunes out of Adelaide.

I think it will be one of the first times the tunes have been played up in Bris (except maybe for Hex and Thief playing them)

Thanks for your support dude
Yeah Dillusion is making some good stuff too.
More tunes will be coming out on vinyl in future so keep your eyes peeled

Hey Jarrod, are you still able to bring one to Chem on thurs? or are they all sold out?
