New Replete portrait, by Replete on Nov 27, 2008 11:54:46 GMT 1, Well I'm back and looks like we've got a winner ;D
Mr Sliding pat your self on the back you guessed correctly with Autechre's Fold 4, Wrap 5 off LP5.
Here's what you win:
It's a 24x36" canvas in acrylics markers and spraypaint entitled 'Chiastic Slide' based on the Autechre album of the same name.
Also honourable mention goes to Ross with choosing Architecture In Helsinki's It's 5 as I bloody love that track and is probably my other favourite track with 5 in it. I'll find you something nice to send you.
One question though is how did you know to choose that track in a rather assured manner and list the lyrics as you were the only person to put the lyrics in the thread? Are you a myspace friend and noticed I have the new Architecture In Helsinki 'That Beep' track playing on my profile at the minute?
Couldn't find a youtube for Fold 5, Wrap 5 it's that obscure but I did find It's 5 and if you get the chance go see Architecture In Helsinki live as they really do know how to do a show as does Roisin Murphy who I saw last night at the Leeds Academy.
uk.youtube.com/watch?v=otWXEb8KGKg
I'll be PMing the winners soon for their addresses.
Thanks to all those that took part and didn't win as i learned a lot about people's taste in music and you can guage a great deal from that.
There's always the chance to win an extra sketch if you buy one of these sketches and even if you dont you get a really nice bit of original hand drawn art for a real nice price ;D

New Replete portrait, by Replete on Nov 27, 2008 12:50:11 GMT 1, yeah google has rendered all knowledge based quizzes a bit redundant which is a bit of shame as I'm a walking repository of facts but this was a guessing game so it evens up the odds a bit.
If you did a bit of detective work on my musical tastes as stated on places like myspace and especially in this threads earlier posts it narrowed down the choice too.
I cant think of a better winner though as i know Sliding who has often offered an interest and support in my work but lacks the funds to buy the more complex pieces will treasure it and put it on his wall and not just instantly trade it on.
And there's other winners to like Copyright for being first to reply and Ross as a bonus and also another who will be getting an unexpected suprise by buying a sketch so I think I couldn't make it fairer than that:]

My gawd yes especially if it was the Bob The Builder version
I'd never live that down and those that said Maroon 5, by what I say on here do I sound like a 50 year old woman undergoing "the change";?
Now I got to make some camomile tea and dust my Royal Doulton figurines whilst watching cash in the attic ;D

I never win anything!! - Thanks Replete, the painting is awesome and 'Chiastic Slide' is also on my itunes... Sorry everyone if I flooded the thread but I promise this piece will go to a good home and I am a real fan of Mr R.
I had the pleasure of seeing Autechre at Glade 2006... a LOT more credible than half of the guesses I typed up hehehe lil' louis anyone?
I did think it was interstella 5555 but that's a video not a song...
thanks again to a really generous guy

P.S nowt wrong with Lil' Louis proto house classic French Kiss and I've been a huge fan of Daft Punk since I saw them twiddling their knobs at Tribal Gathering 97. I 'grinned' so much during the performance I nearly chewed my lips off!

my heart skipped a beat when i seen that canvas, i was so sure i'd won haha
congratulation sliding ;D
your theory is correct replete
after reading this thread, i went down for dinner & while dividing a steak & veg pie i had a brainwave, check his myspace! i put the pie on hold & set to work. at first i thought it was a trick question because one of your own tracks starts 'uno, dos, tres, cuatroo' but 'cinco' just never came just as i was about to give up i thought i'd google the artist on your art myspace + 5 & hey presto

Lil Louis French Kiss is a mega piece of music: seems to transcend time, it'll always sound good!! Finally got round to unwrapping my Aurora Utter Mundane canvas this morning. Got to say i absolutely love it (even more than i thought i would). Just need to find a nice spot on the wall for it now. I'll be sure to post the photos when it goes up.

I'm pleased you love the Aurora canvas, but what have you been doing with it all boxed up until now? Dinner tray, shoe display stand or perhaps you painted it green in order to make a teeny tiny table tennis table;?

New Replete portrait, by Replete on Dec 12, 2008 16:11:38 GMT 1, I've just completed my first vinyl sculpture after experimenting for a while with the technique. The piece is enitiled 'Fold 4, Wrap 5' and is made out of two 12" recycled vinyl records and shaped by hand then painted with acylics and spraypaint.
It's currently an exhibit as part of Edge Art's Merry Crunchmas show along with 3 more portraits of mine on vinyl. You can see them at Socio Rehab in Manchester until the 21st.
I've got more of these sculptures in production some a lot darker in nature and some not as dark using bright and lively colours for a bit of contrast.
Any feedback is greatly appreciated ;D

New Replete portrait, by Replete on Dec 12, 2008 16:30:02 GMT 1, cheers mate and it was good to dee yer pieces in the flesh. I liked the marker and brush work.
The sculpture was done by quickly shaping it by heating it up and then manipulating it into shape adding folds and defintion before it cooled down. This one is loosely based on gargolyes with the other sculptures being of different nature from slightly pervted to out right terrifying.
