hi people,
recently trying to spread some word about our Drop of Blood releases that have come out since quite a while.
Our place DE PLAYER, emerged from an underground venue in Rotterdam into a more production oriented platform where we work with a lot of different artists.
One project we have is called 8-INCH, and aims to release a limited edition series of 50 hand-made lathe cuts on transparent 8" square records including sleeve+poster+photo made by the artist in collab with us. The release is also always accompanied by a live-gig in our venue.
Artists on there so far where among others Michael Morley (Gate), MoHa!, Melted Men and on the upcoming one's are Dennis Typhus, Toxoplasmosis (aa-records, wolfeyes etc. ), and Meeuw Muzak.
You can check for some more info here.

A bit confused by your pricing. You have magazines with 12" picture discs going for twenty two pounds each, and your square 8" lathe cuts are sixty each? Or am I reading it wrong?
All of those 8" for 60 euros (10 euro each) would sound correct. Maybe?
If you go to the webshop you will see that they really are 60 euros EACH.
Yup they are. We normally tend to price items on what we think they are worth, rather than how much the materials cost are or how long the audio is. The bigmag's are magazines sold in regular shops, while the 8 inches are limited items of artists, made in a long handcrafted process, and part of a longer collaborative project.
Well anyway, for interested people we have now a releaseblog on www.deplayer.nl/releaseblog (http://www.deplayer.nl/releaseblog) where you can see some up-to-date news on forthcoming and past releases.
In ANY possible way to think, this sounds like a fuckin stealing anyway.
