Banksy Royksopp, by paulus on Mar 20, 2017 19:28:58 GMT 1, Hi there I'm wondering if anybody knows about this record (Banksy designed promo record for Royksopp) ? Is it still valuable if there is no Pest Control certificate as I gather they don't issue them if it's not a print or a painting. I saw one on eBay just now that's been relisted but how can one tell if it's original ? Thanks in advance Paul

Banksy Royksopp, by Reader on Mar 20, 2017 20:50:14 GMT 1, Picked up by Wall of Sound Records from Tellé Records Norway, Banksy was of course WOS in house designer for a while. This was distributed by Timebomb media out of Bristol and by Mikal Tellé in Bergen. Handcut and sprayed by the man himself. Banksy of course famously decorated the club for a "Good Vibes" night back in November 2000. Dj's vinyl and covers genrally get battered, so not more than a handful out there. Check it has the a4 track listing with it. Nice little piece of history and the closest you can get to an original without shelling out ten's of thousands.

Mine was a different green, looked much rougher sprayed and no where near what you would call crisp like the one on ebay does. Its hard to say if that makes any difference here as mine wasnt kept in a plastic sleeve, he may have run out of green and it may have been a later number i had when he was bored and the stencil was battered. Just buy it bearing in mind even if it is real it cant be proven anyway so theres not much difference.

They were given out as freebies to the mailing lists so they are non commercial release. Or something very similar.

That makes sense, I never knew they were given away, thanks

If you want a more visually appealing record promo keep an eye out for the LIITA wall of sound from 2001, I picked this up on eBay last year with all the other freebies that came in the box. I met the guy first and turns out he was a big music journalist and friends with the record label owner:

Banksy Royksopp, by tartarus on Mar 22, 2017 15:44:13 GMT 1, If anyone here is bidding, having seen one in the flesh before, i would be doing as much research on this one as you can.
I cant say for sure its not legit, but if it were me, id be very wary of it.

I was very interested in this record but at £3K+ that's a tough gamble. What issues do you see that could mean it's a fake? Any help would be appreciated. Cheers.

What issues do you see that could mean it's a fake? Any help would be appreciated. Cheers. i had one years ago n sold it for about 50 quid to some lucky bugger. i remember it being a real rough job (slap stencil down brush lightly with spray, move on) no crisp edges not sprayed in a uniform way at all and a different colour.
the one pictured looks very very fresh to me even the paper looks like it just fell out of a printer (not concrete, but makes me wonder)
Also of all the ones ive seen for sale (mine got sold for 50 quid remember, i notice them with irritation). this is the only one ive looked at and immediately thought "dodgy".
EDIT; all that said, google image now shows results for both colourways. Havnt done full investigation, but hadnt seen the colourway previous to looking today so not sure if it means its a lgit colourway after all or if there are some sketchy ones kicking about of recent.

Banksy Royksopp, by paulus on Mar 23, 2017 20:44:10 GMT 1, I was interested in the record and have had a convo with the seller, I believe this item is legit. Apparently it's never been out of the protective sleeve since it was given to the owner who was involved with the Wall of Sound label. Presumably the proof will be if the promo is of the Royksopp album Unfortunately it's now bid up so high I can't afford it ! P

Yeah I follow the bidding.. 2 or 3 times for a poster signed by banksy one or sign roads( they never do usually ) , i asked Pest Control and they kindly answered me. ( it was for eBay auctions )? If I was the buyer, I would do that again before.
