  • Pfft. Talk to me when he gets a baseball cap.

    I just snagged the last free copy of this comp of solo stuff by Steve Kilbey (vocalist/bass player of The Church).
  • Singles from Nettwerk and Warp
  • Just got an email offer for a 50% off sale.

    There goes froggie's attempt to make it to payday without spending real money!

  • There go all the RECs I just cashed out - more Metropolis including a bunch of KMFDM. I definitely recommend Angst (one of my faves) as well as the 2 Juno Reactors that just dropped.
  • Metropolis Records surge. . .

    FYI... some June Reactor dropped that went straight to the artist page and never showed up page as far as I can tell.
  • Often Metropolis can sound like second-rate Depeche Mode, but this takes the cake/

    Oh, look: London after Midnight (the most overrated Goth band LA ever produced.)
  • I think it's just that everything is coming in so fast it's flying off the front page. The Juno Reactor albums I was recommending were Bible of Dreams and Beyond the Inifinite. Shango was decent, too.

    They've dropped over 100 albums in the past hour. Had to switch my view to 200 per page.

    If Frogkopf is right, I might just wait until I can research the albums more thoroughly. I only want one or two songs off each album, so it's a waste to jump on an album just because it's at 16 or 22 cents per track.
  • The speed of this drop is not smart. Other than a few names of bands I know nothing about the Metropolis stuff, but it's coming so fast that my feeble brain is just shutting off and ignoring it. If it were slower I'd investigate more and probably get some. As it is I haven't snagged a single song.

    It's interesting that their other album on Amie is named Clich
  • This is strange: it seems that Amie has dropped two copies of some albums. Love is Colder than death has its catalog duplicated. This version of Oxeia (wannabe Dead Can Dance) was just dropped at a higher bit rate.
  • They are on two different labels....
  • Wolves in the Throne Romm - Live at Roadburn 2008 is going for under a buck. 4 Tracks, but priced as 12 on eMu.
  • Are you a fan of Amie Street on Facebook? Join up and you could win a copy of Band of Horses' new album, Infinite Arms.
  • Greg Weeks - Bleeker Station - currently free.

    A couple of albums just dropped for the low price of $60.....

    They are special effects albums that have almost 400 tracks - their pages won't even load properly.

    HOW THE HELL AM I SPOSE TO INCREASE MY HORSE WHINNY COLLECTION IF THE FRIGGIN' PAGES DON'T LOAD?????!!!!!???????
  • >They are special effects albums that have almost 400 tracks

    I played the whole album of one of the space effects just for grins. That's a lot of Beeping and Booping for $60.
  • Current new release page - karaoke, sound effects, and....Prose In Rosette. Could life get any better?

    Amidst the karaoke deluge, Miles Davis on Sale. A few there I did not already have, er. legally.

    Edit: All the links go to a Johnny Cash Album, as of 9:51 AM. I suppose they will fix it, I sent a message to CS
  • edited May 2010
    A few Gems hidden amongst the sound effects -Aircraft Cessna 421B Leather Seat Movement (tracks 22-24).

    There are three of them, forming a sort of classic trilogy....
  • Those Miles links are indeed fixed. Especially in Amie dollars, these are good deals on some of the "less famous" Miles discs on Columbia. (And in my case, those are "free" Amie dollars from RECs.) I'm going to get a couple of these, at least partly to encourage them to do this kind of sale more often.

    Amusing typo on one of these write-ups: "Miles In Tokyo features a slightly different incarnation of Davis’s seminole group..." Guess they were Florida State fans.
  • Still got a Johnny Cash from the special page but got the correct item from the album page (At Newport 1958) - some of these are 12 nps on eMu so they are a good deal in Amie dollars fer shur.

    > encourage them to do this kind of sale more often.

    Didn't they do a "birthday" sale in April as well? Dylan's birthday is next week too, if they are looking for suggestions!

    I cashed in a bunch of recs for this sale, I'd like to think that Robinella and the These New Puritans bought me five new Miles Davis albums.
  • I cashed in some recs as well and ended up grabbing just Miles In The Sky as it was pretty much the only gap in my collection from this offering. Hell of a sale, though, and if you are lacking any Miles Davis don't second guess just cash out and checkout. :-)
  • How long are they going to keep us waiting for the Miles karaoke album? I can't stand it. It's just not right.
  • >if you are lacking any Miles Davis don't second guess just cash out and checkout

    I got Miles in the Sky, and the four live albums. I am not sure why I have never bought those before, they are fantastic. Here is a bootleg of the first show in Tokyo (Miles in Tokyo is the second show); here is Koyto, three nights later.
