Title: Shaped vinyl anyone?
Post by: yipjumpmusic on 06 Apr 2005, 01:26

I wish more records had shapes besides the circle, though yes on the part that plays it does have to be a circle but you know what I mean.  This is all I got, anyone else have anything interesting?

i don't actually own one of these, but seminal (and now defunct) australian gabber/drumnbass/hardcore (not in the punk/indie sense) record label bloody fist (http://www.bloodyfist.com.au/) released this record as a final release:

hmm so far better than my triangle...

The fist can be played, just look closely and you can see how far the actual part it plays on goes...

I don't have any shaped vinyls that can be played, but at the Folk Festival last year there was a little pavillion that sold homemade crafts, including vinyls that had been melted a little to form decorative bowls.

I bought the one made of Rush's All The World's A Stage. Damn right.

I don't have the vinyl, but TMBG's John Linnell released a single shaped like the U.S.

There was one record someone was showing off at another forum I go to that was shaped like a skateboard. I don't have the picture, though...

Alas, I have the regular circle shaped version of said record. I do own some shaped records, but alas, they are not as cool as the Ghostbusters one. I'm not sure anything is.

dj shadow remixed radiohead's "the gloaming" and had it on a 7" shaped like dick cheney's head, only he had horns and red devil eyes.

hilarity... i kinda wish i had ordered it at the time, though.  dj shadow's pretty good stuff.
