OK -- The response to the MASK CDR trade offer has been...well, quite large. So instead of dealing with all you noble fellow citizens of IDM-Land one -on-one (it would even take ages just to paste all of your addresses into the header of this message), here's the general score. For those who wish to purchase: What does it cost me to make these discs? For CDRs, approx. $3.75 per set. For shipping each one USPS priority mail, another $3. Am I arrogant enough to charge something on top of that? Maybe just arrogant enough to ask for an extra $3.25, factored in simply because so many people want these & it'll take a long time to do all these burns on a single-disc burner. The upshot? If you want to buy the set from me, I'm asking for $10. For those who wish to trade CDRs: I guess a 2-CDR trade seems fair, or else if you have originals of stuff that you just don't want anymore, that's cool too. Things I am interested in/have not heard yet/can't afford to buy: Matmos Burger/Ink East Flatbush Project "Tried by 12" (about the above, if someone makes me a compilation of all the mixes available from all the different versions of this release, I'll throw in an extra disc of anything out of my collection you might possibly want. Other old SKAM, etc.) Andrea Parker's "Kiss My Arp" Lexaunculpt Phthalocyanine Momus Dopplereffekt "Sterilization Mixes" Gus Gus Hector Zazou/Harold Budd "Glyph" Lamb "Gorecki" remixed by Global Communications Depeche Mode bootlegs ...well, actually, it's kind of daunting to list all the stuff I might like, so here's what I absolutely *don't* need any of (including remixes by): autechre & gescom aphex, richard james squarepusher two lone swordsmen kraftwerk Freestyle -beyond- that. Ultimately, the deal is simple. You send me 2 CDRs of cool stuff, you get the MASK CDRs. I'm not going to give out my postal address until the masters are completely finished and ready to copy. When I do, I'll post my phone number as an added measure of pre-trade trust. Once the masters are finished I'll post all that info here. peace sr -- sd (p.s.: there's a fair likelihood that, disc space permitting, the MASK CDRs might have 'lego feet' a.k.a. SKAM 001 tacked onto the end of the second disc.)
