"What a quality track" says Marcus.
"Yeah" says Mike. "I've always loved Audiotrack 14393. Y'know, maybe we should think about putting some of this music out."
"Haven't you been reading the news?" Marcus says grimly. "Terrorist atrocities, conflict in the middle east, pollution all over the place, scarring our beautiful earth! You think humanity deserves to hear this? They're nothing but a bunch of hairless apes."
"You're right Marcus" says Mike. "I don't know what I was thinking. Let's never release the thousands of incredible tracks we have. Not until human beings can learn to live in peace, and in harmony with nature."
"Yeah" says Marcus. "We'll leave them to our children, and our children's children. They'll know when the time is right."
"That reminds me" says Mike. "Warp have been on the phone again. They are pestering us about a new album."
"Again?" Marcus says, "It's only been eight fucking years. We should just keep them hanging on for longer. Ah fuck it, just send them 17 tracks from the "meh" pile. Everyone will think it's amazing. After all, they've never heard the real gold."
"And they never will"
"I'll drink to that Mike, I'll drink to that."
what if they released a boxset of 'old tunes'
and it was just tracks like
