UPDATED – OUT NOW – Bandcamp // Woob HQ
Yes! it’s happening today! …Just I(‘m in UK time)
I’m running a lot behind schedule as forgot today clashed with Prototype Vector’s landing! but it is happening will post some reveal times a little later. Launch event post should begin proper around 10.10 pm (UK time) bookmark this page and get those F5′s/refreshes at the ready!
Lost 1194 Is a collection of previously unreleased recordings from the Woob debut album recording sessions at Square Center Studios. Digitally Re-mastered keeping the integrity of the original sound intact and formed from the alternate live mixes (Wuub had 6!) this collection combines to form an alternative take on 1194.
The roots of most of these recordings can be found in the original Woob six part cassette series. However there are tracks from that series that were not part of the original debut and some of these will also appear as part of this new collection. This launch Event Post will reveal various editions and how these will be included.
The Lost Prologue below gives you an ambient taster of the album to be released Tonight!
The amazing artwork is by French concept artist and illustrator Florian de Gesincourt the widescreen version will feature on the CD.

PLANET WOOB
Elementary, my dear Watson
ANTARCTICA MAP
I just had to let the wife out and back in again, I didn’t realise they could be trained this easy…
Bring on more launch nights ;)
If anyone’s interested, I used to have a Norwegian flatmate, and the helicopter pilot at the start of “The Thing” is saying “It’s not a dog! You don’t understand! It’s not a dog!”. Which kind of ruins the element of surprise for Norwegian viewers.
Prizes! – U/Scope Stealth T-Shirt for best comment! Red Monochrome for Runner up!
What’s a “Stealth T-shirt”? A vest?
:)
That comment deserves a prize
Special bonus prize for that comment!
I think stealth t-shirts are those meshy things big in the 70’s… it’s kind of there, kind of not there.
Snow is now starting to clog up my keyboa
We may ask the South African signer to translate these shirts, it can’t be less logical than Pauls clues
Awesome! sounds fantastic. time to plug in my favourite headphones. :)
Look out penguins, the walrus is Paul.
You mean a string vest? Hope these tees aren’t XL again….. Not stealth on me ;)
Lost1194 is the Thing I have dreamt about since 1194!
:)
(Veins pulsing.. Woob woob…….Woob woob……..Woob woob…..)

Pins under the eyelids time…

for a moment there I thought that said terry’s orange
F5 fatigue!
A little dream for waiting
I need to go and pay a visit to the old Master Control …
:)
So….Related to the original teaser. Have you reprocessed these tracks through RSS or was that a reference to the RSS that was used on the originals?
PS. Super elated for this release. However…once again: Void Pt.1………on vinyl…….Please ….pretty please! Hehe. Keep it up mate and you will be the death of my wallet.
reference but more isolated stuff now

Damn. I wish I thought of that!
Actually I missed the question. If i saw that when posted I would have had that lol. So gutted! Damn family distractions!
A particle physicist gets stopped by the police for speeding. The officer taps on the window and says “Sir, do you know how fast you were going?” and the particle physicist says “Yes. But now I don’t know where I am”.
Just trying to keep us all awake

Well, I’ve loved up my wife and washed my car now. Is it t:me?
too much information:)
Hmm… Captain & Tennille have something going on… have to go check it out. RMX of “Muskrat Love” or something…
You are too fast to make well.
I think that you inverted, you washed your wife and you loved up your car :)
Both are bright and shiny and waiting to be Woobed.
OK stores looking good but probably left out delivery on the Penguin water slide edition.
back in 20!
I was looking for the Toucan Water Wiggle package. Not up yet?
あのペンギンはどうなった?
‘Time’ just came on itunes weird coincidence again
LOST VINYL 93/10 very mysterious and very impressionant !!!
I must have that vinyl! Since it already says only 4 of 5 left I take it you put one aside for me? ; P Lol. I wish!
Ah! There it is. Found it!

Thanks everyone !
GREAT NIGHT WOOB !

Bandcamp not live?

sorry easier to find now!
http://woob.bandcamp.com/album/lost-1194
was a stealth album reveal;)
Mr. Franklin, you are making me very poor…and what a great way to spend!
OMG I spelled your name wrong, I’ve been staring a page refreshes for far too long. I feel like quite the idiot. I am so sorry
And of course I realized my mistake the second I hit post. Grrrrrr. If only WordPress allowed edits
hey I’m used to it:)
Missed out on the vinyl. Heartbroken!
there’s one left!
Vinyl appears to be still available, I just tried and it let me add to cart
it tells me it’s not “Sorry, there are no “’50 Below’ Lost Vinyl 9310 + CD” left. All others are either sold or being held in other buyers’ carts. Buyers have 10 minutes to checkout, after which it may become available again.”
looks like Ronald picked you to the post he must have got some EPS power for is laptop battery!
Sold out and we don’t even know what’s on it! Will a reveal give us more info or do we wait for arrival?
Damn it. Every time I refreshed it told me none left. Damn carts!
I really wish you would do more than 5 vinyls. You know they would sell. Love it all anyways!
Err…4 vinyls i mean.
there are only 5 of them in the country as far as I know and now they all contain woob! These are not the 5inch they are CD sized!
Sorry, I think there was a bit of confusion there. I meant I wish there were more than 5 copies available so I had a better chance of getting one hehe.
I know -wish could do a few more :) Maybe a Lost SA sometime
That would make me very happy and I would like to reserve one now ; P Having your stuff on vinyl is very important to me and I would consider selling our son on the black market to achieve it lol.
Bandcamp threw a wobbly and overwrote physical ship date-said everything was shipping today!…It’s not just incase anyone thought it might be:)
Does the EPS verson come with physical copies of both the normal album and the Em:t version or should I be grabbing the signed and sealed along with it?
EPS is USB only
S+S is 2 frozen CD’s with the emit stuff
One “fairly” well behaved 6 year old offered in exchange for the vinyl! Any takers?
He’s a hard worker!…..Anyone?!
Hmm, I don’t really have any use (or room) for a 6 year old. But I will gladly loan you a vinyl if you promise to take care of it. Seriously though, If Paul/Woob keeps this up, a “Woob Museum” won’t be completely out of the realm of possibility. The number of rarities is getting to be hard to keep track of. Imagine it, you walk into a building and there before you is the monowuub, the single edition of the Utrascope vinyl, the original analog masters for 1194, and a giant wax penguin. They could even include a “working” square center studios replica room with an RSS-10 playing a looped 1194 sample and you could pan the sound around multiple channels in the room. Sorry Paul (Woob), just having a laugh but I do like the idea of being able to see all of the limited releases in one place. Maybe a fan-generated website with Hi-Res pictures of all your limited releases? A Virtual Museum?
Before the onsale, I misread and thought you had a stash of the original 1194 e:mit digipacks and were selling those off. Got pretty excited since I only have the US/non-digipack version.
I do actually have one sealed one!
I also only have the Instinct jewel case release. Is this sealed copy an extra that you’d be willing to part with?
it’s kinda priceless to me:)
Never let it out of your sight!
Indeed. An extra to spare would be a rare miracle hehe.
hey Paul I’m trying to email you check your spam box!
Wow. Two new Woob projects in the space of two months. This could only be a better year for music if Robin Thicke fell into a threshing machine. Thanks Paul! W
I’m exhausted! – never again:)
Quick Monochrome Blue update – if you ordered one you can request a digital code, details now on the page (they were missing at launch)
Competition results in next few days look out for a Woob – Retrospective post!
Which competition, I’m not still concentrated and english sometimes raises problems and aspects of the blog escape me.
Moreover some of my comments are certainly written in even dark incorrect english.
Sorry :)
best comment
Missed it :(
I believe the whole recurring theme of penguins has to do with the crash in Antarctica…
By that token, when releasing Repurpose, maybe a different ship would crash in Brazil or something (Toucans).
Repurpose? what hold on…..:)
Lost Wuub sounds great, lots of layers are coming to the surface with repeated listening.
(I kind of was referring to the inflatable penguins and I thought of 4495)
it does sound great, by the way
Yay
Thanks for an entertaining launch night again
I did actually fall asleep about 1am, I missed things but got the CD’s & monochrome CD I think – It’s downloaded now and ready for first full listen
My only complaint would be, it’s a shame that we couldn’t have individual tracks as well as mixed, its always nice to put together playlists but not so easy when tracks are mixed as one
Keep up the good work, I did catch an earlier reply about a ‘lost 9310’ – I was assuming that was humor but am I wrong?
Cheers
but you did get individual tracks and mixed?!
did i? I got the monochrome cd and the signed sealed pack, when i added it to my ipod it said 6 tracks+prologue
have i missed something then, going to have first full listen when there is peace in the house later
digital is almost seamless but they are separate. / CD seamless like original.
Prologue is full on mix though obviously:)
ahh that maketh more sense now, that was probably too many f5’s and even more coffee affecting the brain
! HAPPY NEW YEAR …WOOB… MUSIC WALK WITH YOU !
I just listened to the digital version of Lost 1194. Sounds great, but I was wondering what the sample rate of the FLAC version is. My DAC display shows only 44.1 kHz. Shouldn’t it be HighRes (96 kHz or higher). Is there something wrong with my setup?
I finally cracked the code… it was a Woob that sank the Titanic, right?
