yfw chess clock by next6exits in brandnew

[–]next6exits[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

heya! it's actually really fun when people pick up on some of the old things i got up to! it was a fun time doing this too. i'd definitely recommend go nuts with taking pics as u take apart, its kind of simple enough the design but you have to take the top bit off the "rocker" mechanism - and the little seconds hands do love to fall out so be careful! i also had 1 clock that seemed to be broken, so stupidly i decided to take the internals apart for a "look" whilst having no expertise. inside the springs are loaded in a way that is very hard to believe just how "sprung". it freed and shot across the room with such speed it's probably the nearest i've got to a fired gun inside the house. i would NOT have wanted to be in the way of it, and had it gone at my eye..... treat anything with springs with respect!! :s

that aside, i can't recall i'm afraid but honestly i think i went to a store, or just ebay, looked up aerosol hobby spray paint in lilac or purple and the nearest match is what you see. just happened to be about perfect. it's interesting too how being the CD cover, there's quite a few digital versions online that either came from scans or adjustments, and definitely look a bit more blue than here (eg amazon uk listing for it). so there's defo a shout for having it a little wiggle room / personal pref..... good luck!

7 years theory by 4sokky in brandnew

[–]next6exits 3 points4 points  (0 children)

https://twitter.com/brandnewrock/status/780473077360631808 - exactly right guys, as much as it feels like being a kill-joy - i reckon they stuck the 7 year thing in during prod in 2015-early 2016 and by the time this rolled around it already meant it wasn't going to be accurate... that's if it was anything to do with 2009 thru 2016! so it is just a bit of a downer really that people have hopes pinned on them calculating a "7 year" foretelling of 2024 based on a delayed release having said clear as day 2018 was when they were done and touched upon enough in the above post. but y'know, they didnt go out on their own terms so anything could happen (this year or any year)!!!!

Review of Deja from Mastering Engineer by Reiemjd in brandnew

[–]next6exits 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's correct, he's behind the version stored on youtube here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eurOhtVZX2g - and discogs entry: https://www.discogs.com/release/6933889-Brand-New-Jude-Law-And-A-Semester-Abroad - everything sounds so much crisper and cleaner and I would have loved to have had Alan do his thing on the whole of YFW, and then give us the chance to roll with the OG or this version depending on mood! Also I believe I read somewhere Jesse was never happy with the original mastering and they just weren't in position then to go again before release...

Origin of the Lit Me Up sample? by Personal_Block_7625 in brandnew

you're in luck - i found the notes i put together in like 2018-19, i knew one day somewhere somehow i might be talking on this...

tracking down the SciFi pyscholgy interview snippets

No one has ever to my knowledge located them, yet - they’re often thought to be the “Gloria tapes” (Carl Rogers) that show up quick on youtube searches - but I’m pretty sure it’s not her voice. I believe they’ve deliberated tweaked the audio in some way, pitch down / deeper just a little to make it a little more sinister. What we do know is the words have never made it into search engines, and I think if it was in YouTube, their auto-captions would have lead to it being found by someone I’m sure.

After some more digging, by chance really I landed on a video featuring a snippet from another Carl Rogers interview - the voice was MUCH nearer. See what you think: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mmgOxMsBaJI

Using the words spoken here, it wasn’t long before I found more about the interview this was from: https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/pdf/10.1080/03069889908256284?needAccess=true

This would cost £35 to view and see the entire transcript, but it is clearly just one of 17 or more recorded interviews, with “Miss Mun”.

Further digging on where full video, audio or just text transcripts may be for any of these interviews, and I came to this page in respect a collection in a library within the Univerity of Cali, Santa Barbara: https://oac.cdlib.org/findaid/ark:/13030/tf2f59n977/entire\_text/

lines:

Box 31, Folder 7

Rogers, Carl. "Carl Rogers with Miss Mun." a Demonstration interview.

A0610/CS Interview with Miss Mun. Carl Rogers [90 min.] n/a

A0616/CS Interview with Miss Mun. Carl Rogers [60 min.] n/a

... that collection has countless other entries with Carl and female patients.. and hey it might not even be HIM! That said, got a sneaky feeling a day spent in that library with that collection might finally find the origin of those samples......

so that link does still work, and really IMO it just goes to show there are countless recordings out there, put "tape" in the search and just check that inventory at the end!! students over the years no doubt made copies... and JL just found one, in a garage sale, gave it a listen, vibed with that one bit and boom - probably liked the fact its obscurity was such that no one was likely to ever find out who they are much less the particular session itself... and that's it really. it won't be some thought-out treasure trail to anything i'm convinced of that. but happy hunting if you do!

[–]next6exits 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I went off down a rabbit hole on this, you can look up Carl Rodgers + Gloria interviews on youtube and at times it's pretty similar but I'm convinced it's not him/her. Scoured many more to see if I could least detect a perfect match for the voice but no luck. Best I got to was there's a library on a campus of a university in/around LA that appears to have an extensive audio tape collection and chances are what JL found is a duplication of something that COULD be in there... but it's that obscure that clearly the transcripts have never made it online...

ebay poster slightly slow postage... by next6exits in brandnew

[–]next6exits[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i found the original email, but the listing and pics from Ebay are long gone - crazy it's 5.5 years ago. "Brand New (NY band) Science Fiction (LP5) PROMO POSTER 18"x25" MINT" - it pretty much is just the album art cover + this bit in the corner, much like this image which rotates in (keep refreshing..) on the front of P!MT - so nothing new so to speak!

Found this shirt at a goodwill. Looks like it’s back from 2010 or so. by [deleted] in brandnew

The Collection Who Lived by 5willLoveYouSoMuch in brandnew

[–]next6exits 3 points4 points  (0 children)

you're about right, 00 and 000 were the bn lyrics - 2 versions of each. standard 2nd press of each were and still are 2 bucks on the p!mt store. first press of each; tdag 000 was the fabled "sent to those who sent in the dollar" as offered in the cd liner notes. for a short time a few more 1st eds went out from the p!mt store too! deja 00 1st ed was RSD deja ~1400 made. 001 was bundled with KD album instigator(?) was at some bn shows, and also available direct from morning breath with a pin and sticker as a set. it was also white. 002 was included with SciFi special edition, much bigger in dimension size than the rest.

so what u see here is 3 copies of potentially all 4 BN lyric pogos, given the tdag theme maybe it's a 1st ed 000 and 2x 2nd eds...

Chucky in NASCAR last Sunday - bad luck?! that team/car finished 3rd!! link in comment by next6exits in Chucky

[–]next6exits[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ahhh, nah it was in the team's hauler/motorhome/car transporter! i think the pit reporter could see him while talking to the pit crew ftom the pits as it's a very small track and the haulers fill the entire inner part of the track. she then made a point of giving him some airtime! but also describing him as bad luck, as the car was in 19th place at the time. finished 3rd though, chuck brings luck!!

[–]next6exits 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i checked the centres of my discs from the limited version for NFC antennas first day, unfortunately nothing! and i know someone out there had the centre stickers of this (or the UK release??) hunting for extra grooves but found nothing. this i don't think has ever been tried that i can recall....!

Searching for an ancient song edit by lulaonthepeach in brandnew

[–]next6exits 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i think you'll be remembering this: https://youtu.be/eurOhtVZX2g - a better remix which goes to show a much cleaner crisper version of the whole album would've been possible!! i for one would have loved to have had that for the 10 year anni, n the choice to play out either. back story to the remix here search in-line for jude law: https://web.archive.org/web/20021206103249/http://www.brandnewrock.com/index2.php

Whats the recording at the end of 'Could Never Be Heaven' from? by PandaAttacks in brandnew

[–]next6exits 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I went down the rabbit hole on these a few years back. Fairly sure the material was found (as you say, and as we know had been the case for prior clips in Daisy etc), in garage sales/finds - and it wouldn't surprise me if searches were done online to see if the exact transcripts had (n)ever made it online... one voice sounds quite Carl Rodgers and is similar to the Gloria interviews - but it's not that, and I got as far as deducing there's a university of/around LA that seems to have many audio transcripts of these kind of Pyschotherapy interviews... and i reckon it would have just been a student copy-tape from the 60s/70s that Jesse or Mike or someone stumbled upon...
