Scribble Promo Single

[DwarfeD]

I just came across this (http://cgi.ebay.nl/UNDERWORLD-SCRIBBLE-NEW-UPFRONT-3-TRACK-CD-PROMO-/320539403900) promo single of Scribble on eBay. It looks pretty legitimate with the Cooking Vinyl-logo pressed on the CDr. Although I was tempted at first, since I'm dying to hear a clean full version of Scribble, I'm not willing to pay that much money for something that will not be worth more then 10% of its current vallue. The tracklisting gives:
Edit
Full Version
InstrumentalNice to see that there is an instrumental version on it as well. Good luck for the ones that are going to bid on it. (I know some of you are willing to pay that kind of money for a promo... I did it in the past, but this time I'm waiting for the full/official/cheaper release ;))

[ThingInABook]

i went to the listing to actually buy the thing, but WAT? 43dollars?? plus shipping?

i'll pass, it's less than a month away from the release of a nicely packaged single.

[holden]

wonder if the Instrumental version is more in the vein of "You Do Scribble"? Though we have many fine live versions, a clean studio version would still be appreciated...

[King of Snake]

I'd expect it to be more or less the same as the regular version but minus the vocals.

This afternoon it had a Buy Now option for that amount, which was way too much IMO..!

[//\/\/]

wow - didn't take long for some herbert to make money from the new stuff they've got for nowt...

[ThingInABook]

This afternoon it had a Buy Now option for that amount, which was way too much IMO..!

yup, there was a buy it now option... but it seems that it was eliminated in favor of the bidding system.

[TheBang]

For non-fixed price auctions, Buy It Now is only available when there are no bids on an item (unless the item has a reserve that hasn't been met). After the first bid has been placed, the Buy It Now option disappears.

[ThingInABook]

i just bought the single for around half the price of the original bid. now, if the thing shows up before the official single...

[gaborez]

hHey ThingInABook
i think you beat me to that cd! I put the minimum bid in and meant to go back and check it before the end...

enjoy :)

;)

i was lurking the 'buy it now' listing since dwarfed found the scribble promos. the seller posted it after the first one ended. so there, happy to have it.

hope it arrives soon. probably i'll post some stuff when it comes home :)

[ThingInABook]

and after two weeks...

I'm a bit jealous now I see that laying there in front of you..

Does the promo sheet have any new interesting info?
I'm a bit curious about the formats Scribble will be released in. I guess there won't be a cd-single, so that would mean just vinyl (I love to see a 7"..) and digital. Or is this info already out there?

[TheBang]

I've been told that there will be a 12" and CD release for this single (and digital, of course).

[DwarfeD]

Btw I just heared the Netsky remix and it really is terrible. Especially that annoying sound that starts at about 1:30, will not be playing that one a lot...:(

[ThingInABook]

i can scan the paper when i'm back home. yesterday i was meant to scan it, but my pup wanted to play... it's a press release, the same one as the one in u/wlive. it mentions that the single release will be the 28th of june, as well as release formats and... not so much.

listening to the full version in cd is... delicious.

edit: in the full version of the pic is possible to read what the paper says ;)

[Dino3D]

I hope it will be on CD! Cooking Vinyl is a good company, it releases CD singles nowdays.

[stimpee]

The Netsky remix is on its way to being one of the worst Underworld remixes I have ever heard. Its just juvenile. If i wanted computer game music, i'd fire up the commodore 64 emulator. additionally, its just not very well done, its lobotomized, the beat. i like the instrumental mix though. pretty decent!

[BrotherLovesDub]

You are so wrong about the Netsky remix being one of the worst. It's not bad at all, just not as good as the original. Tons of stinkers in the Underworld remix box that radiate stench more than Netsky's effort.

[Dino3D]

Netsky is the best UW remix! It absolutely blows my mind!

[stimpee]

Netsky is the best UW remix! It absolutely blows my mind!must have blown your ears because i strongly disagree. i dont think its a grower either. the extended version and the instrumental are growing on me though. radio edit not.

[DwarfeD]

I'm so with Stimpee on this one. The Netsky remix is just like you've downloaded a midi-file instead of an mp3... :cool:

[ThingInABook]

press release: http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh182/vectorweapon/scribblepressrelease.jpg

full length is probably the best way to appreciate scribble. i was, maybe, TOO used to the radio edit before listening to the full version and some places seem somewhat empty, but that's just me. today, headphones on, little synth stabs were everywhere and the emptyness disappeared. radio edit is way too short, too fast and too propulsive compared with the full length. the complete version progresses more coherently and less agressively and, at the end, feels more blissey.

ey ey ey lol.

the instrumental is nothing more than scribble without lyrics (no difference with the full version, same length), but this version feels more like the original you do scribble and, while karl's and juanita's vocals are missing, those synths stabs are everywhere and fill the spaces in a good way. a warm blanket track.

one thing is sure: scribble has the best intro and ending since juanita/kiteless/to dream of love. the sounds make my ears tingle.

i've only listened to a part of netsky's remix, while it started weird (holy shit, is that a cheesetrance intro?), afterwards got weirder. not my cup of tea, but better than that fake blood ring road remix (barf).

[TheBang]

the instrumental is nothing more than scribble without lyrics (no difference with the full version, same length)
Really? My Scribble (LP Version) is 7:06, while Scribble (Instrumental) is 6:42. What are yours?

[ThingInABook]

Really? My Scribble (LP Version) is 7:06, while Scribble (Instrumental) is 6:42. What are yours?

oops, sorry. me bad. too distracted with work to actually care to look at the player :P

[BrotherLovesDub]

the only difference is, the LP version includes the bit that's going to join Scribble to Hamburg Hotel, the instrumental ends 30secs earlier

[unwound floors]

Nah, I'm with the haters: the Netsky remix makes me cry blood and want to punch babies in the face. Awful, awful, awful.

[Dino3D]

The press release says format: DIGITAL :( :( :( :(

I want CD single!!!!

[34958hq439-qjw9v5jq298v5j]

am I the only one who liked the ring road remix? really stupid but pretty fun in a "I can't believe they're actually doing this to Underworld" way. i dug it

[the mongoose]

Netsky remix is fucking terrible and will never be played on purpose again.:mad:

Bought the long Scribble on iTunes for a buck though.:cool:

[Dino3D]

I like it too!

[big screen satellite]

I like it too!

the fake blood mix rocked - it was the best one for a while....

[DwarfeD]

the fake blood mix rocked - it was the best one for a while....

I loved that one as well. A bit cheesy, but damn those oldschool house beats/piano's always do the trick 4 me :)

[ultradave]

that annoying sound that starts at about 1:30...:(

It reminded me of the music for The Legend of Zelda - N64 style... very 8 bit - I actually don't mind it - it has a very retro feel. If you don't like video game music, then I can see why you'd hate it.

I now want to draw my sword and take some rupees!!! hahaha!!! :D

...and it's okay...

[big screen satellite]

typical fake blood stylee, but i love his work...

[Dino3D]

Any info about physical formats?

[Dino3D]

On ebay I found beautiful promos with full artwork! I want one!

[ThingInABook]

perhaps that's what we're going to see next monday. cardboard sleeve?

and the cd is quite colorful. but i want a 12" release!!

[stimpee]

Yeah it does look quite nice, must say.

[hypeless]

Isn't the full single supposed to drop today?

[TheBang]

"Scribble", the first new material from the new album to see the light of day, is available now from underworldlive.com and will be commercially released on 28th June 2010, including a remix by Hospital recording artist, Netsky.

Ack, sorry, thanks. Guess it was wishful thinking when I put it in my calendar. Although in searching iTunes[US], the full song (7:06) was there. Guess it'll tide me over for another week!

[ThingInABook]

next monday will be the happiest monday of this month - scribble single and it'll be holiday here. also, i'm gonna get rid of this stupid video i'm making!

come, monday, come.

[Dino3D]

I think everyone have all of the versions, so I don't care about june 28. :) Anyway it will be just a stupidshit mp3 release....
I can't belive that first time UW won't have a physical single. :( F...ing record industry!!!

[potatobroth]

Just heard the instrumental version. Its exactly Scribble sans lyrics. Don't expect You Do Scribble. :(

[ThingInABook]

in the press release it says 'CD single'. also, the promos in ebay with the cardboard sleeve are the actual scribble singles that we're going to see the 28th.

but i really wanted a 12" release :(

Sorry, but I have to say the press release says: Format: digital download single. :( :( :(

Or are there more press releases? Which press did you read? I read that scanned somebody here.

I doubt it. It can be bought as a white label here: http://www.med-music.com/product.asp?id=83667
Sounded not that great, but it surely did top that awful Netsky remix...:cool:

[ThingInABook]

well, the press release you read is the one i scanned. and yes, there'll be a physical version to purchase. like the one you saw on ebay.

[Dino3D]

I read it again but no word about physical version, just download. And there are no pre-order on any webshops and monday is the release day. So I guess it's just digital, but I hope someday there will be a CD.

[ultradave]

the promos in ebay with the cardboard sleeve are the actual scribble singles that we're going to see the 28th.

let's see... just won a copy on eBay for $23US from the UK. should be receiving it AFTER the official release which will probably be like $13 less... oh well... hopefully there will be a "PROMO" stamp on it or something to make me feel better... but I'll be happy regardless. I love the artwork!!! A 12" w/that cover would be stellar!

[ThingInABook]

umm... yea. promos always grace cd racks!

[Dino3D]

There is no CD single.....

[Dino3D]

It's monday 28, and nothing....

[stimpee]

Scribble radio edit, full and netsky are available on iTunes for 0.99e each or for the bargain 2.97e if you buy all three ;)

edit: of course, that means the instrumental version is not available. which i think is a bit weak, cos its great, and the netsky version sucks big hairy donkeys balls.

[potatobroth]

that means the instrumental version is not available. which i think is a bit weak, cos its great

Am I mistaken in that the Instrumental version is just Scribble sans lyrics? I heard a version of this and I struggled to notice even any subtle differnces.

[stimpee]

I believe its just the full version / non-radio edit version without the vocals yes. I'm not a fan of the lyrics. a bit too generic Shiny Happy People for me. *grumbles*

[hypeless]

It's monday 28, and nothing....

Yup, still waiting... any word?

[stimpee]

Yup, still waiting... any word?erm... i said above that it was available on itunes :)

[Troy McClure]

Also available via Amazon MP3 store:

and on MSN's Zune subscription service. I used one of my monthly credits to get full rights to own the song. It downloaded as a 320k mp3 file.

[TheBang]

Also available on Napster and Beatport and 7digital (UK)

[ultradave]

hopefully there will be a "PROMO" stamp on it...

boy was I excited to find my physical copy in the mail when I got home from work yesterday on the 28th! no "PROMO" stamp or anything to indicate it as such. the cardboard sleeve is pretty flimsy, but I do love the artwork - the disc is pretty cool looking too... very neon 80's retro feel to it...

i love having a "physical" piece of underworld! :D
