It's one of those things. I have an enormous list of shit I want and I'm not sure how high up the list this actually is. I'll give it a little thought

More info on the Forse 1 repress. Starts shipping next week.Much needed re-press of the record that started the Forse series. A red vinyl version is available on opaque red to differentiate it from the transparent red first pressing.
From Facebook:

Both sealed.
Sonno is on clear vinyl.
Risveglio is probably on white vinyl.

I don't have a record player yet, but I love the format.
I buy a lot of records for future listening, but I keep the rare records sealed for now.
I really don't know... I just love them being sealed. On the other hand, I buy a lot of old Beatles / Stones records as well and love their hoariness and smell.
So, it was a fucking hard question to answer, but I know what you think when you see someone like me.
It's not that I think anything, I'm sure there must be a genuine reason (I've seen people, for example, who'll buy 2 copies of a record and keep one sealed) but it's not something I'd ever think to do. My opinion (and appreciate not everyone would share it) is that you buy a record because you appreciate the music and the format, so why would you deprive yourself of that but still spend all the money? It's all a bit confusing to me. First thing I always so is get the shrinkwrap/ cellophane off a record!

Yes, I totally see your view.
I am a record collector and love buying different versions of a release. I don't spend much time at home, that's why I listen to music on iPod / iTunes / Spotify, but still love buying vinyls, because they look so fucking amazing. I hope I'll be able to buy a great player one day and I'm sure I'll open a few albums I bought.
The pricing is also a good example: if I don't buy the limited albums on / before release date, the prices will be much higher a few years later. So, that's also a reason a I buy records from my favourite artitsts, but keep them sealed.
Has anyone here ever exchanged correspondence with Important Records? I've emailed and has no reply and added a note to my order for Forse 3 and had no reply. Bit disappointed since it has been nearly 3 full working days since I placed my order for Forse 1 and sent first email correspondence.
Important Records takes forever to ship things.
Weirdly they emailed me this afternoon about combining shipping on Forse 1 and 3 but didn't actually tell me if there was a saving
Also, this appeared
Alessandro will play at Path Festival in Verona (Italy) on September 5th (I got a ticket )
Also, here's a new article (in Italian): http://www.soundwall.it/alessandro-c...o-terapeutico/
Some key info:
- new sonoio album is on hold ("maybe next year")
- there will be some live performances under the name of Skarn
- the show in Berlin will be an A/V performance of Sonno + an extended version of Risveglio
- More dates are scheduled in October (Unsound in Poland and one in Rome)
Dammint, i was hoping for new Sonoio so bad, "Thanks for calling" is a great track but i've listened the shit out of it...

This is not what I wanted to read. I was really hoping to hear the full version of this track at some point soon.
Yeah, incredibly sad that a Sonoio release is on hold. It's my favourite side project of his. None of these other ones really do anything for me, I wonder if it's the lack of vocals. It could be.
nbd my hero just thinks I'm awesome - day made!
i also asked him about the blindoldfreak ep and the early buchla sessions coming out/getting reissued.
his response "there's always a chance. Hopefully next year I'll find a good home for both records"
more cortini collection spam that i forgot to post
According to the Important Records Twitter account they're going to be re-pressing Forse 2 in the not too distant future as well, which is good news for those of us who have the second press of Forse 1 and 3 but not 2
The second press is opaque. I think they ran the second press pretty soon after the first so there was a second press of 3 available before 1 if I understood right (there's every chance I'm entirely wrong about that)
Did they not? I could have sworn I'd read it either here or on their website. I'm fairly sure I knew before it arrived yesterday. Ah well. Least you know now.
Forse 2 re-press pre-order in the next month or so according to Important Records on Twitter
