SEPTEMBER 2023

Hello friends, 

My NEW batch of FORTNIGHTLY auctions & Buy It Nows will be completed by the end of Monday September 25th so PLEASE CHECK BACK if viewing before then. MORE IN TWO WEEKS! 

I'm now SEVEN YEARS into selling my immense collection of 1990s independent label ORIGINAL PROMO POSTERS, VINYL, CASSETTES, FLYERS & POSTCARDS. Most are from my hoard acquired whilst in the independent record/music business.

NOW I'm adding my (usually) MINT UNPLAYED VINYL FROM THE 1980s & 1990s to my fortnightly listings. Record shop fresh, stored for decades. Independent labels, guitar bands, and electronica (IDM, EDM) my speciality.

PLEASE ADD ME AS A FAVOURITE SELLER for notifications of 1980s & 1990s NEVER PLAYED VINYL. Mostly from independent labels.

FREE POSTAGE after first item on nearly all printed items, and COMBINED POSTAGE DISCOUNTS on everything else (subject to conditions below).

HAPPY HUNTING!

THIS is part of a collection of promo vinyl that I'll be listing over the next few months. It comes from a prominent 1990s NME journalist. 

IT is a white label test pressing of Nowadaze by UK hip hop artist Krispy 3. The threesome released two albums and three singles on the Kold Sweat label in 1993 and 1994. Nowadaze was due to be their fourth single on the label but Kold Sweat ceased to exist following a Krispy 3 12" with the catalogue number KS132. This test pressing has KS133 engraved in the run out but was NEVER RELEASED. Nowadaze was instead released as the B side to Takin It Easy on the outfit's own Damn Right! Records. Other than the lead track and a radio version of it the other four track titles/mixes are UNKNOWN. 

It is housed in a plain white die cut paper sleeves, with a hand written note to the music journalist plus some hand written information on the label itself.

THIS RARE WHITE LABEL HAS NEVER BEEN LISTED OR OFFERED FOR SALE ON DISCOGS so this is likely to be your only chance to own this historic piece of UK hip hop vinyl.

CONDITION: Near Mint SHINY VINYL, NO SIGNS OF USE OR HANDLING but may have been played carefully a few times at time of release before being stored. (I don't grade plain or generic sleeves or additional items such as press releases, which are as seen in the photo(s)). 

PLEASE carefully examine the photographs using the zoom function. The photos form part of the item description.

It is one of many original 1980s/90s promo posters, vinyl, tapes, postcards, etc. from independent artists and labels to be listed in September PLUS SOME MINT 1980s/'90s UNPLAYED ORIGINAL INDEPENDENT LABEL VINYL.

Postcards, flyers, stickers & factory folded posters are FREE POSTAGE with this item. COMBINED POSTAGE DISCOUNT available on multiple vinyl orders. Please see information below for the terms of these offers..

A NOTE ABOUT WHITE LABEL TEST PRESSINGS: Produced for the record label in very small quantities (sometimes as few as 10) to check that there are no faults in the mastering or pressing processes. Sometimes there are enough pressed for promo purposes (typically around 50-100).

NOTE: I am the first and only owner of everything I list unless stated otherwise. Everything I list is on a similar coloured blue/purple background so that you know they are my own photos.

THANK YOU! 

COMBINED POSTAGE & PACKING DISCOUNT (Terms & Conditions): 

1) You must request an invoice for all items BEFORE making any payment to be eligible for the combined postage discount. No retrospective discounts will be given. In case of difficulty please message me before buying. 

2) Postage & packing for multiple items will be charged at cost (please see above) and the discount is only applicable if your items can be sent in one package without risking damage.

3) EXCEPTION: If your additional purchases take the value of your order into a higher insurance level (please see above) the appropriate 'at cost' increment will be added to your p&p charge, which will still be cheaper than buying two or more items individually.
