promo CDs
 

anyone who aggressively collects all uw promos come across a 2-disc CDR set entitled "Push Upstairs Master" from Turtle Tone Studio? Just curious how many copies are floating around out there...

Re: promo CDs
 

Any other information on it? Track listings?

Re: promo CDs
 

Sounds like a pair of accetates to me.
Matt would know then I think, but he's moving house atm.

Re: promo CDs
 

I don't have the disc with me at the office so I can't give exact tracklist/times, but it reads something like:

Turtle Tone Studio Masters [date/###]
Push Upstairs (edit)

Push Upstairs (Darren Price Remix) [edit]

Push Upstairs (original)

Push Upstairs (Adam Beyer Mix 1)

Push Upstairs (Adam Beyer Mix 2)

Push Upstairs (Narcotic Haze Dub)

Push Upstairs (Roger Sanchez Blue Plastic People Mix)

Push Upstairs (Darren Price Remix)

Please Help Me

Re: promo CDs
 

Acetate is a vinyl term only.



That looks like a reference disc made by the mastering studio. There were probably not too many of these made, maybe only a handful, as mastering studios are not usually in the business of making a bunch of advanced copies of things.

Re: promo CDs
 

I've seen it being used in cd-r context too.

Google teaches me:

Re: promo CDs
 

collectors speak of acetates still yeah, might be better to call them studio CDRs or something.

Re: promo CDs
 

still around - just very busy and my internet is up the spout - dialing in...

anyway..

not heard of this item...those promo edits sound sweet if they are of the remixes...

but acetates like this are pretty common, but rare, i mean common by saying that record companies often master stuff like this on a small scale - sometimes for execs to listen to, sometimes for the bands and sometimes the radio stations, its never really issued as a promo type cd...like the standard cd-r promo you get...

the only PU promos i know of are the card sleeved JBO promos....

but acetate is now used for CD if rather incorrectly, as i think acetate is a term for the actual material used to make those 'vinyl' acetates...


anyhow...a full track list and description / photo would be nice...is it hand written of custom printed on the disc??

Re: promo CDs
 

Push Upstairs (Narcotic Haze Dub) ?? :confused: ??

Ne'er heard this one! Is this the only place to hear it (kinda like those rare italian KOS mixes)?

Re: promo CDs
 

the Narcotic Haze dub isn't too much different than the normal Roger S mix...
I don't think I have an actual 'hard copy' of the track, but I def have a 160kbps mp3

what I'm wondering about - is the Darren Price Edit
