_o0m
Whoa fucking ridiculously cool tunes, especially the first one. I need to seriously consider ordering this…
crazy stuff, bro ![]()
Holy f*ck. This was totally unexpected.
Thank you for the great words and yeah, we take this very, very seriously without taking ourselves too seriously, of course. All packages went out and should be reaching your mailboxes soon enough. Again, thank you for the motivation. If you’re looking for a particular size and it’s being listed as “Sold-Out,” fear not. We have more on the way and we’ll be updating any/all info.
If you are interested, we also have a few other torrents/free releases located at http://www.radiograffiti.org and through our obligatory bandcamp profile. The mailinglist also receives first dibs on various items/exclusives/etc.
Again, THANK YOU.
Like the t-shirt, will seriously consider buying one once i can afford it… how much are they?
now to give the release a listen
Edit: well… just listened, and i think it’s time i realize i don’t really like breakcore that much ![]()
b-side is my favourite though
B-Side is the shit man… nothing bad to say about the other tune tho, but the flip did it for me
wd guys!
@magOwl: Thanks! It’s an absolute banger of a 7", I agree. ![]()
@thread: The shirts are $20 USD and shipping varies per location. If shipping ends up being less than what is paid, the difference is refunded asap. Proper shipping estimation happens to be an art all by itself. HA!
It should be noted that the medium sizes are next to vanish. The XS hasn’t moved at all.
As promised: http://www.radiograffiti.org/skull-tracker-t-shirt
All sizes are now available, including 2XL! The newest round of shirts are on 100% cotton tees. Get these now before they’re gone.
We’ll be sending out the email, with actual photos for these and the Hexadeci 7" any day now:
You can find the form for the mailing list on our sidebar.
Ok, so I didn’t want to start another topic so I’ll just post the new information here. We just released a new 7" and while it’s not necessarily Renoise-based, it is 100% Octamed/Amiga 1200 based, so there’s certainly some crossover here. If this is frowned upon, let me know and I will not do it again.

On with the new info:
Radiograffiti presents:
RGV-007
Hexadeci - “Alone In The Dark E.P.”
Radiograffiti release page: http://radiograffiti.bandcamp.com/album/alone-in-the-dark-e-p
A. Alone In The Dark
B. Swiss Yodelcore
Finally, a record we here at Radiograffiti think you will actually like - the 7" debut release from UK native Hexadeci, “The Alone In The Dark E.P.”
Hexadeci (and, maybe you) has waited far longer than acceptable for this release. We’ve felt the wait, too. With an original release scheduled for summer 2010, the album is ready for presentation as a D.I.Y. kit that corners the aesthetics of Xerox-punk & high-art boutique.
In September 2010 (after a three-month round of pulling out our collective hair), Radiograffiti held an online poll to let you choose the artwork for “The Alone in the Dark E.P.” The two staggeringly different options included an impressive sci-fi/horror scene from full-time animator Hexadeci and a fucking rush-job from Radiograffiti’s resident artist Nova!Cain, drawn while his kid was at the babysitter for the afternoon. Poll results swung between the center labels from one artist and cover sleeve from the other, but in the end the Hexideci art won out.
Then everything went wrong all over again. Cue the sad trombones. We decided to scrap the poll, piss off Hexadeci and make everyone wait a few more weeks. We blew money we didn’t have on ideas that didn’t work - like rigging a spray gun to a spare tire for airbrushed artwork. Hardcore.
Eventually, Ty Stagediver managed to find the time to teach himself how to hand-screen envelopes in his livingroom (which is his bedroom) to complete the suite of artwork for “The Alone in the Dark E.P.” D.I.Y. kit. It’s a departure from the usual way we present our 7" releases, and it marks the debut of non-American talent on Radiograffiti. The kit includes all of the items needed to complete one full 7" but you decide what it will be ('cause we can’t even decide what we want to eat). Will it be Hexadeci’s version? Will it be Nova!Cain’s version? Will you order three copies, make one of each, leave one sealed and hang them all on the wall with the rest of your Radiograffiti records? Like that bitch with the green mullet in the early 90’s once said, “The power is yours!” Or something.
This music is some of the best Amigacore in the past 10 years - skirting between party music for the post-apocalyptic crowd and a nightmarish take on otherwise light-hearted themes. What’s most remarkable about these tunes isn’t necessarily Hexadeci’s programming expertise (he’s totally awesome), or the creative use of seemingly random samples (Shakira? A Swiss yodeler?). No, it’s how he manages to effectively tear down dance music to shape his own tastes AND create tunes that are actually MUSICAL, instead of slipping into the same tired traps of hardcore posturing.
It’s a fun record and we promise you’ll get some seriously confused looks when you drop a Swiss Yodelcore track at your next house party. Try it. Film it. Send us the video.
It’s exciting, it’s loud, it’s flawed, it’s idea-driven and it’s how we like it. We know you will too.
Quite liking this release, good work fellas. Although 7" vinyl get on my nerves and never quite caught onto the whole digital thing as of yet…

Wow. Has it been two years already? Thank you all for the kind words and a huge SORRY for the necrobump/lack of response. I was going to post a new thread about this, but it might make more sense to keep it to one. Hopefully these tracker-based releases/label spam will still be of some interest.
There is a discount sale happening right now over at Radiograffiti.org The sale ends on the 1st of July, so now is your best (only) chance at picking up some limited items for cheap. Subscribers to the Radiograffiti mailing list had first crack over a week ago, so be sure you’re signed up if you want to stay informed.

(Taken from the news letter)
** Web store sale/contest **
Visit http://www.radiograffiti.org right now to take advantage of a ridiculous pardon-our-dust sale happening as you read this. Everything has been discounted, so stake your final claim on items where quantities are (extremely!) limited. Help us clear things out and make room for exciting new releases. As an added bonus, all new orders between now and July 1st will be entered in a giveaway to win the original metal stampers for RGV-001. Frame them. Play them. Bootleg your own copies; because it could only be better than ours. Winners will be selected at random. Good luck.
** Stone Head “Raw Power 386” 12" + INVADERS2.MOD / LMO.MOD 7" now stocked **
We have but only a few new products from the Australian http://www.killbotrecords.com label. Stocked with the DJ/collector in mind, Radiograffiti is lucky enough to be the only US distributor of these particular titles. Both feature very nice, repetitive material from an ancient IBM compatible computer, circa 1993-1995 - written while being completely unaware of what the Bloody Fist guys were doing during that same period. Clear vinyl on the 12", black vinyl + large hole on the 7". Xeroxed B&W sticker art. Instant collectables. http://radiograffiti.bandcamp.com/merch
That is all for now. Stay tuned for exciting news on new releases.
Let me know when you release a CD.
What’s this “CD” old people keep telling about?
Orders were shipped this morning. Thank you everyone. Interesting note about the shirts - people have been ordering whatever sizes are left to cut the design and hang on their wall, as a sort of studio flag. Very cool.
CDs are not much of a priority until there is a compelling argument to make 'em. You can at least use the boxes of unsold vinyl as a makeshift bed. ![]()
To the others in the thread (if you’re still around) working on new tracker shirt designs w/ included hires desktop images. More Renoise vinyl on the way as well.
