I agree with this. Some of the tracks banged (Spurs 3 and Dough and Damani were my faves) but I didn’t love all of the beat choices. I was hella disappointed in the Gibbs track also. Props to Conway for trying something different. But I definitely prefer him over grimier, less “commercial” beats.

I think one of my issues with Conway sometimes was how he flirted with a more commercial sound when I really prefer that Griselda/Daringer grimey sound... which is why I really liked NOMTW even though I don't listen to a ton of Conway. but for some reason I really like this new one a lot and I wonder if it's because he's embracing this sound fully where before it seemed a little half baked to me. though there's still plenty of grimey on this new one too, it just feels like a super well rounded project to me.

Word. Just realized how big a Divino fan I am when I had a mild panic attack when I saw all the variants sold out.

Their pricing structure is a bit wild. Like, I've never seen so many price tiers for the same album.

Yeah, it's pretty extreme. Their obis literally double the album price. I think it's FxCK RxP which is fairly straight across with the pricing of non-obis, regardless of variant. I like that a lot better.

Agreed. This feels like a complete vision executed very well. Took a drive this morning to give it a spin, really digging it.

On another note, does anyone still need this Gunn?

It's fairly recent (last year or so) that Tuff Kong started upping their prices and creating more price tiers. They used to offer a standard and a color that was a few Euro more. Once the Obis came into play the color variants went up by 5 to 10 euro. They also started adding multiple color variants.

Edit: some of the standard black pops up at other retailers including fatbeats and get on down in the u.s. or hhv and vinyl digital in europe

Yeah Fxck Rxp is my favorite. Straightforward pricing, good quality product, reasonable shipping and they don’t take forever to ship. I’ve emailed the guy that runs it a couple times and he’s a nice dude too.

Current least favorite is Air Vinyls. They are terrible. They release far too much product, so they take forever to ship. I’m still waiting on Elcamino 2.

are they letting you keep both copies as well? sorry if I swept in and linked up with @ITrustMyGuitar after you had already made the offer to him if you got to keep both. if you want you can off your extra to him since you connected with him before I did... I'm certainly not worried on being able to unload it one way or another.

@Dead C

Yes, I have an extra red that appears like Daupe is going to let me keep. They haven’t confirmed that but I’m kind of assuming they would have cancelled by now

Not to scoop it from anyone not on the thread, but I didn't see anyone jump on this when you mentioned it early and @EmeryRK is looking for one. He's actually messaging me, right now, and it came up

Doesnt matter to me. Like you, I only sprung for two copies to try and help someone out in here. @ITrustMyGuitar should definitely get one of our copies.

I agree. no offense to @EmeryRK but @ITrustMyGuitar should be first in line, but assuming they send you both and @EmeryRK wants one then everyone is covered. I guess we can work it out once we get shipping confirmation/the records arrive and we know how many we got between us.

PS: I ordered the Red variant as well

I agree. I did not want to come in and claim one if someone called it first. I am perfectly fine with waiting it out and seeing how it goes. I am never one to take something when others call.

Totally. I was just responding to the fact that @wingclipper was saying that it looked like he had an extra on top of that. I thought @ITrustMyGuitar was already covered, so my comment was just contingent on if there was still another one, since it looked like you were discussing who was going to give him their copy and who was still going to be left holding on to one.
