Are the track lengths listed next to the individual tracks on bandcamp what they are in the digital album and the physical media, or are they just preview lengths? Because it looks like bandcamp only has half of my song.

The tapes are already made, and each side has a rather exact length of music to fill each tape. I apologize. I rerendered all tracks to .wav for upload to bandcamp. The way it loops, well, the 2nd half visually looked like the 1st half. I haven't made any CDs yet, and I can update the bandcamp version too.

It's not a huge deal. The form of that song is ABA'C; I understand why one would think that it was just ABAB.

I'd rather get the mixparty Ann Arbor/Detroit stuff, hope we can get around to that.

chunter - I've had a couple concerns about the remix stuff . . .

Should each one be it's own release or should they be slightly combined. I really like the idea of making highlight compilations rather than putting out everything on bandcamp.

The other big one, should I just render the MP3's to WAV and call it a day?!?!

re: mix contest compilations are a good idea because then you can include the best of some one-offs like pir8 break; since I expect most people don't have the sauce files to re-encode the mixes, encoding the mp3s might be the only way to go, however, that doesn't mean you can't or shouldn't attempt to post process it with care- multiband compression and/or EQ, that sort of thing...

puke7: i think you should definitely solicit WAVs from the participants before you resort to using the MP3s. i'm sure a lot of them are still around on disk (or can be re-rendered from source)!

Not to be nagging, but any indication as to when I might receive my order? It's been almost two months, after all.

^ same here (ordered the double cassette + WC1 7", order was made 24th of August, so over 2 months ago). I actually emailed Beard man about this some days ago, as loblast.com order status still says "processing" for me which I guess points to that the stuff has not been sent yet(?)

I'd like to apologize. I was really trying to create a cross-promotion with Sumer Chip and the launch of the store. The tapes and CDs are made, but the insert sheets have yet to be laid out. Nate (from Epic Fail Cassette) bugs me every once in a while about this too. There are 4 orders that have not gone out from the time of the store's launch. I was hoping for a bit more than that. All the money is still sitting in my paypal account, I can give a refund if anyone is that upset, but I also planned on sending extra goodies along when the orders finally shipped. You all should probably nag me in IRC about getting this done.
