Just wonder if anybody perhaps ordered CD's from the native state records online shop lately ?
I'm asking because on the main site it says: " Native State Records is now officially on hiatus. We've moved offices to Hawaii and will be back online
once all of our stock arrives safely from the mainland! "
http://www.nativestaterecords.com/
But in here - http://www.nativestaterecords.com/releasesframe.html
it seems that some releases are available for purchase but I'm not 100% sure that everything is up and running...
I contacted Evan but he didn't answer me back yet.
So if someone can confirm that it's ok to buy CD's from there please do so.
Thanks in advance 
Love&light
P.S
I know that the CD I want is available on other shops but in some cases I prefer to buy directly from the record label.
cheers !

Yeah, that front page has said they're on hiatus since last year some time when Evan moved to Hawaii.
Good work on finding the releases page. I clicked on one of the albums to buy it and it takes you to the same payment page that the Somnia website uses. So I would guess that it should be fine to order from there.
At least you know it is Evan at the other end who receives your order and money, and I would think that he would be trustworthy enough to refund your money if the item you ordered is out of stock.
But if the page is there and working i am thinking that it should be fine to order. I would if Beneath the Surface was in stock.
Good luck with it! |

Hi there DjSchofield,
How are you mate?
Yes, I clicked on one of the albums as well a couple of days ago and saw the Somnia payment page but still I was not sure.
anyway, I guess you're right, like you said,if it's there and it's working it should probably be alright.
thanks and cheers !  |

Most likely, Evan is getting re-organized both musically and personally. Have some patience - the guy is just too creative too keep quiet for long. I just think he needs to find a proper platform to sell his music and make a living. Which makes sense. He is, for what it is worth, one of my main influences in modern electronic music.
Cheers:)

well, I just find it a bit strange that on the main Native State Records website there is no link to here - http://www.nativestaterecords.com/releasesframe.html
and I'm also surprised that Evan didn't answer me back, I mean,I know his busy but I think that when someone wants to buy a release from your label and asks you about it because something is not clear to him it's quite reasonable to answer him back.
I ordered from Somnia in the past and it went quite OK and with nice customer service from Evan.
but this Native State Records case is a bit weird in my opinion.
for me a good buying experience is quite important and a not so nice customer service can really put me off but in this case the music is so good that I just have to buy it.
this thing really makes me appreciate Ultimae,Fluid Audio,twisted,Aleph Zero and psyshop even more. they just have a really good customer service and the whole process of the order is really nice and smooth and everything is always updated and clear.
+ most of them are just very very nice people.

to him or something.

I bought 'Nautica' by krill.minima and V/A 'Bioluminescence'
'Nautica' is amazing !
and 'Bioluminescence' is fantastic !

They are both splendid albums. Bioluminescence was on very high rotation in my house for quite a while after i got it.
Nautica is just in a class of its own. Sub-marine bliss.

btw, it has been a long time since the last Somnia release. wonder what's happening there. i remember it was going to the printers a a few months ago. |

That's a really nice album. It says temporarily out of stock so are they hoping to have it in stock again at some point?
Wait.....What? |

Not sure if it's because he's moving back to the mainland but indeed there's a problem with communication with Evan at this moment :/

all's good with Evan - just extremely busy moving house, touring a lot and working hard on new music.
