Merry Christmas: Re-issue of 'The Other People's Place "Lifestyles of The Laptop Café"'

It's no secret that Warp fans have been wanting to get their hands on the vinyl issue of The Other People Place's infamous LP Lifestyles of The Laptop Café. A petition to re-issue the 2001 Warp Records classic was launched in 2015 following incredibly high prices on Discogs - at the time (June 2015) the highest price in the marketplace was a whopping €25,000. 

For the 1,167 supporters, the campaign was short of just 333 signatures to make a difference. But perhaps Warp did listen to "the people"... over a year later, the label has today announced that a re-issue of the double vinyl edition is available for pre-order on Bleep.com, hitting the stores as of February 10, 2017 (unfortunate news for the handful of secondhand sellers on Discogs...). 

Merry Christmas!
