Varg - Star Alliance




Varg is the work of Jonas Rönnberg. The reference points are Posh (obviously), the Blackest Ever Black aesthetic, the Krokodilo tapes that I posted a while ago, laid-back Richie Hawtin and (surprisingly) early Brian Eno. Trust me, you need to listen to this ...

There is literally nothing not to love about Posh Isolation.

However, there is a lot to hate about people. This was released on the 2nd of October last year and surprise surprise there are people trying to sell this on Discogs for as much as £130. Naturally, the copies are all "unplayed" or "extra copies". The idea that people hoover up limited releases as "an investment opportunity" and rob people of the chance to buy them from the label makes me vomit.

Attaching a monetary value to this tape set is an arbitrary task ... it's magnificent and priceless!

Thanks a lot for sharing this. I couldn't afford it at the time and I had a feeling this would be gouged hard, a lot like most short-run Posh Isolation releases unfortunately.

It's getting stupid now ... at first, I just thought that this was a blog to plunder (saying thank you, of course) ... but now it's turning into an education ... thanks
