Ornette Posted July 25, 2006 Report Share Posted July 25, 2006 I thought this was an official repress - dodgy label indeed, but official, with the proper B side and the correct cat numbers etched. Pressed off the masters I thought. And I got my one in 2001 along with the Champion Sound re-press. Is Haste talking about the R-Type that Shy FX licenced/repressed for his Ebony label?

Thanks for clearing that up. I actually think the b-side is the true classic! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haste Posted July 25, 2006 Report Share Posted July 25, 2006 I'm talking about the one with the white on black label, not the Shy FX one. Pretty sure it was an official repress. Pretty sure it came out before the Champion Sound repress, I remember getting that later on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure it came out before the Champion Sound repress, I remember getting that later on. Mine is black letters on white? (And so is Synthetics?) Does that mean two represses - as, I have to say, represses do sell out quickly - especially classics like "R-Type" To casually pick one up in 2001, being 2 whole years after your reckoning of a 1999 release, seems a bit unlikely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmm... they kick out quite a lot of moody stuff if I recall, like this for example: http://www.rolldabeats.com/release/jungle_book/jb002 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also thought that this was something to do with IMO bt seeing as I think there was some link with Slipmatt and them this is why this repress was official and not their usual bootleg nonsense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Synthetic Posted July 26, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2006 Yes mine is black letters on a white label. The reason I am suspicious is because of the IMO connection. I did not buy the release from them but they once sold me a bootleg of another record. Must pick up the original R-Type on ebay someday.

Ornette Posted July 26, 2006 Report Share Posted July 26, 2006 Naah its a good 'un. Pretty sure its from original pressing plates. It was better than the Champion Sound re-press which I was certain was repressed from a record. Sounds a bit flat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
