Warp20 (1989 - 2009)

Scubadevils

Posted this also over in Experimental a while back when the voting was still taking place as to what tracks made it to upcoming box-set to celebrate 20 years of Warp. All tracks now announced for this amazing release which Warp are taking pre-orders for now, but not out till late September. Hard to believe they are around now 20 years, been a fan myself for almost that whole time!

A very nice set altogether which includes 4 CDs, 3 x10" Vinyl, 2 x 10" vinyl loops and a 192 page book, can't wait for this to land on my doorstep later in the year...

Looks amazing,im sure it will sound amazing too.

Pretty much sums up the briliance that has been Warp for the past 20 years.

Anyone know how much,when and where this can be purchased?

It's all in the link Felixdhc posted. The page is a bit confusing though - here's the link to where you can pre-order

Bleep are taking pre-orders up to the 5th of July which guarantees a copy and also gives a 20% discount. A good way for them to determine I suppose how many they should make to meet demand...

Yeah it looks spectacular... Can't wait for it to ship in September

They seem to have put real effort into the design etc. It should certainly become a collectors item, I'd imagine after the official release date in September it will become a double CD only without any of the other CDs, vinyl and frills.

Cheers for the links lads.

Do you think picking up two copies of it would pay off in a few years to come???

Possibly... depends on how many they end up making which I'd say they will determine based on pre-orders up to the 5th of July. They have not said though that it is limited edition with x amount of copies only for the world.

That said, if you bought a 2nd copy and left it completely sealed, the chances are it would be worth somewhat more than the original price in years to come... how much more is the question (and that will most likely be determined by how many they make).

Costs a lot money but certainly a collectors item, bleeptastic

A pity some of my other fav labels wouldn't so similar like Strictly Rhythm for House, Reinforced Records for Rave/Hardcore and Prolekult for Techno.

Border Community for all those other odd bits of music that are difficult to pigeonhole but are pretty good!

Yay... got an email from Bleep to say this will be shipping in the next few days... can't wait

Got this yesterday, well worth the wait... highly recommend to any Warp fans, lovely box-set and good value considering what you get. I see already its shot up in value on discogs, be worth a few quid in time to come.
