Scribble Promo Single
 

I just came across this 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:

1. Edit
2. Full Version
3. Instrumental

Nice 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 ;))

Re: Scribble Promo Single
 

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.

Re: Scribble Promo Single
 

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...

Re: Scribble Promo Single
 

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

Re: Scribble Promo Single
 

the link above is to one thats 14.99gbp, not $43. same CD just without the press release.

Re: Scribble Promo Single
 

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

Re: Scribble Promo Single
 

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

Re: Scribble Promo Single
 

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

Re: Scribble Promo Single
 

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.

Re: Scribble Promo Single
 

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

Re: Scribble Promo Single
 

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 :)

Re: Scribble Promo Single
 

;)

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 :)

:D

Re: Scribble Promo Single
 

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?

Re: Scribble Promo Single
 

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

Re: Scribble Promo Single
 

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...:(

Re: Scribble Promo Single
 

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 ;)

Re: Scribble Promo Single
 

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

Re: Scribble Promo Single
 

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!

Re: Scribble Promo Single
 

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.

Re: Scribble Promo Single
 

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

Re: Scribble Promo Single
 

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.

Re: Scribble Promo Single
 

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:

Re: Scribble Promo Single
 

press release: http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/h...essrelease.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).

Re: Scribble Promo Single
 

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

Re: Scribble Promo Single
 

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

Re: Scribble Promo Single
 

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

Re: Scribble Promo Single
 

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

Re: Scribble Promo Single
 

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

I want CD single!!!!

Re: Scribble Promo Single
 

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

Re: Scribble Promo Single
 

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:

Re: Scribble Promo Single
 

I like it too!

Re: Scribble Promo Single
 

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

Re: Scribble Promo Single
 

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

Re: Scribble Promo Single
 

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...

Re: Scribble Promo Single
 

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

Re: Scribble Promo Single
 

Any info about physical formats?

Re: Scribble Promo Single
 

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

Re: Scribble Promo Single
 

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!!

Re: Scribble Promo Single
 

Yeah it does look quite nice, must say.
