Yay, a new thread of baiting.
We cancelled it because it was already nearly sold out by the time it was planned to be broadcast. We spent a couple of hundred pounds on FB and that seemed to be enough. Our digital store wasn't ready, and our digital broker has a minimum 4 week lead time.
We'll do one next time, instead. If that's okay with you? We're doing more units, so it's worthwhile.

It wasn't "filmed" it used stock footage of F&D and Mob at various gigs near the time (primarly "The Order" and Fracus & Darwin @ Westfest).
We never got as far as finalising it, and getting it ready for broadcast, because it was clear from fairly early on we wouldn't need to.
We had been using the rule of thirds; we expect to do a third in pre-sales and first week sales, a third in the next three months, and then the rest trickling out over time.
We wanted to sell this through faster, and aimed for three months. Well over half went before release date.
This is all cripplingly obvious, and publically documented, stuff.
I still don't really see what you're trying to do, tbh. I've essentially confirmed that we're working on a follow up, and the previous one is no longer available for sale. You can bleat on about SV and their scene attentions, but would they have agreed to have us do another one so soon if it hadn't sold out and performed above expectation? Clearly not.
Still, I'm sure you're chomping at the bit in anticipation of snarkily commentating on every aspect of another volume already. Take a nap, it'll get announced shortly

So why have they chose to not book the people, that have mixed their album, at their raves ?

Still not had a chance to ask, likely oversight. It happens.
Mob got to play main stage at westfest the year after winning the breakthrough award, whilst f&d are the only act ever not to play at the party they won theirs, so... c'est la vie.

Those two comments are sufficiently pitiable that I will finally opt out. See you in the new thread.

Not had a chance to ask the people that you have been working with for months and are still probably in constant contact with why it is they chose not to book the person that mixed their album at their raves? Maybe it's because they are as confused as everyone else is as why this is even the case ?

You're seriously suggesting that Lee UHF would be a more relevant choice than M.O.B for an upfront hardcore album?
