Title: Andy Hunter - Colour: Hard to find in stores? Post by: Christopher Carl on April 24, 2008, 05:49:47 PM I can't find it in any of my local music stores or Christian book store. I searched Walmart, Target, Best Buy, FYE, Hastings...nobody has it. The Christian book store here in town (Lifeway) doesn't even list it in their database for sale.
I finally bought it off Amazon tonight. Anybody else have a hard time finding it? Title: Re: Andy Hunter - Colour: Hard to find in stores? Post by: djdunamis on April 24, 2008, 07:04:08 PM nope, I tried Wal-mart, but then went to Lifeway and got it.

Like I said, they didn't even have it in their database.Title: Re: Andy Hunter - Colour: Hard to find in stores? Post by: Christopher Carl on April 24, 2008, 08:11:01 PM itunes... Funny thing. I like having liner notes and printed artwork. I'm old fashioned that way.Title: Re: Andy Hunter - Colour: Hard to find in stores?

I got it from Barnes & Noble here, but Best Buy had it too. Title: Re: Andy Hunter - Colour: Hard to find in stores? Post by: Dave Richards on April 25, 2008, 07:13:09 AM Yeah... I think this one got crap for CBA distribution. Can't say that I blame him for going that way. This album is so much better now that EMI and Tedd T. are out of the system.

Hmm, I might have to check it out then. :P (I wasn't particularly impressed with the second album.) Title: Re: Andy Hunter - Colour: Hard to find in stores?

This album is so much better now that EMI and Tedd T. are out of the system. Yeah, this thing is mainly targeted at the places that carry normal music. At B&N and Best Buy it was not in the Christian section, but in the dance music section, which is right where it needs to be :) Title: Re: Andy Hunter - Colour: Hard to find in stores? Post by: Dave Richards on April 25, 2008, 07:37:43 AM I've concluded that Tedd T. is quite possibly the worst producer out there. Everything I hate about the first 2 AH albums are present in Mute Math's as well. It's gotta be the Tedd.

Well, I like the Mute Math stuff quite a bit, and it's been a while since I listened to the two Andy Hunter albums, but I think part of the problem might be just not fully transitioning from pop/alt/rock/whatever to EDM production. Title: Re: Andy Hunter - Colour: Hard to find in stores? Post by: Dave Richards on April 25, 2008, 08:04:37 AM No, the mastering and mixing is what I hate about the Mute Math cd. It's not the music. The mastering and mixing literally grates on me.

The mastering and mixing literally grates on me. Yeah, I can see not caring for the wall of sound approach to mastering, although if you look at the album info it actually says it was mastered by Paul Meany (not to mention that mastering is usually handled by a mastering house, not the album's producer anyway). Although, I have to say the way they used compression on "Plan B" is pretty neat, where when the song really builds up you can hear the cymbals pumping in and out. :) As for the Andy Hunter albums, what I remember is that I liked the first album okay, although the rapping was a bit cheesy, but then for the second one (which I bought without listening to any previews) the cheese factor pretty much took over the entire album. Title: Re: Andy Hunter - Colour: Hard to find in stores? Post by: Alex Wilson on April 25, 2008, 01:17:25 PM what can i say, im cheap like that...
mute math is WAY better live. i mean 100x better. Title: Re: Andy Hunter - Colour: Hard to find in stores? Post by: Dave Richards on April 25, 2008, 01:50:01 PM exactly. The mixing and mastering is off, but you can't wholly blame the guy behind the deck. Ultimately, it's the producer not the mastering house. The producer's job is to make sure it sounds right.

I'm old fashioned that way.I like buying CD's too because i have a physical copy of it, and i can rip it to my computer in WHATEVER format i want to. not the forced choice of whatever download store. Title: Re: Andy Hunter - Colour: Hard to find in stores? Post by: andyb on April 26, 2008, 12:40:39 PM I bought a copy from a UK retailer, but it's on back-order. Something about a May realease??
So I bought all the i-Tunes, converted them to .wavs then burnt a CD for the car. Not strictly leagal but I'm not going to pass any on and I've still baought a hard copy. (when it comes). I like it 8) Title: Re: Andy Hunter - Colour: Hard to find in stores? Post by: Dave Richards on April 26, 2008, 01:18:37 PM beatport has it.
Title: Re: Andy Hunter - Colour: Hard to find in stores? Post by: Alex Wilson on April 26, 2008, 04:22:56 PM good point keith, but if i really want to, i burn stuff to cd and then rip them back to mp3.
