Ansum — A Hundred Days Off industry promo

well — this version exists. and i own it.

things are as follows. a good friend of mine, who used to work at v2 records years ago, recently gave me a promo of a hundred days off for internal use at the record company (a so called 'industry promo', as i am told). i was going to put a post up here next week or so (after clearing some deadlines) but since this subject comes up now, here is my post.

the cd turns out to be a pre-mastered version of ahdo. it's a cdr in a plain white sleeve with a photocopy of printed titles glued to the front.

the album is still called 'ansum'. tracks are in a different order and it misses little speaker, which gives the album a different overall feel. all the tracks are at least slightly different from the final ahdo. most of this is due to the final mixing and mastering. but sometimes the difference is more apparent (such as longer/shorter fadeouts, or changes in percussion. the latter most noteably in trim and ballet lane).

but, by far the most interesting are the much longer versions of mo move and twist. twist is more than two minutes longer: 8.47. it ends with a harder, percussive bit. damn good. and mo move, twice as long at 13.49, extends with what became the ambient-ish second part of little speaker on ahdo, but then longer. which sounds pretty logical, actually...

i did not find any mention of this promo anywhere on the net... did anybody else here know of its existence? i think i saw some promos listed with this track listing, but then the actual music resembled the final ahdo...

this is the tracklisting:

1. two months off — 9.07
2. twist — 8.47
3. sola systim — 6.11
4. ess gee — 2.17
5. mo move — 13.49
6. trim — 3.18
7. dinosaur adventure 3d — 7.55
8. ballet lane — 3.26
9. luetin — 7.06
total time — 61.55

hey swift,
that's pretty cool..

would be interesting to hear these versions of course....
i always figured there was something behind the timing listed incorrectly...

you have a nice rarity there..

the order of the tracks is kind of odd though..
it would have been cool if they had added a b-side,
or the track 'ansum' though..

well, keep us posted on anything else..
i know a lot of people would be grateful to
hear or preview this..

Hopefully the spirit that persuaded the kind person to share the Dubno DAT will also encourage Swift to share as well.

Re: Ansum — A Hundred Days Off industry promo
of course i will share
i enjoyed the dubno dat too, and all kinds of other stuff i got through here...

but not at this moment, unfortunately. a have to prepare & upload, and i need some sleep now. busy day tomorrow, but i will find some time the coming days.

what shall i do? i guess i will just upload aiff-files to rtsr?

indeed -1, i also wondered about the incorrect time listing on my adho promo... things always have logical reasons.

and to supply the first demands, here is a scan of the cover.

very kind of you to do this..no rush..
it's been several years,so a little bit longer can't hurt...

either wav files or a cd iso would be the best format for rtsr..

well that's one more mystery solved!

Re: Ansum — A Hundred Days Off industry promo
I am torn on AHDO. I absolutely love 4 or 5 tracks and a couple b-sides. The rest of it is kind of meh.

Well! This is certainly interesting! Also, I never knew that Ansum was AHDO's working title. And then they named a B-Side after it... huh. Any chance this'll appear off of RTSR?
