Taylor Swift fan baffled by Speak Now (Taylor\u2019s Version) vinyl playing \u201ccreepy\u201d electronic music TikTok: mischief_marauder \/ Above Board ProjectsA Taylor Swift fan made a \u201ccreepy\u201d discovery after finding out her Speak Now (Taylor\u2019s Version) vinyl had seemingly been mispressed. A re-recorded version of Taylor Swift\u2019s 2010 album, Speak Now (Taylor\u2019s Version), was released on July 7, 2023 and quickly broke the Spotify record for most single-day streams for any album this year. As well as breaking streaming records this calendar year, the album has also been a huge hit on vinyl, with many fans opting for the physical copy instead. However, it seems not every vinyl was pressed correctly, as one TikToker found out. Rachel Hunter, who goes by \u2018mischief_marauder\u2019 on TikTok, posted a now-viral video sharing her confusion over the mispressed album. Instead of Taylor Swift, the vinyl begins with an unsettling voice saying, \u201cI quit seeing people, I quit looking at the flakes of flesh and dancing organisms.\u201d When Hunter turned the vinyl over to its B-side, a man\u2019s voice sounded repeatedly chanting, \u201cThere are 70 billion people on earth. Where are they hiding?\u201d Both sides of the vinyl eventually devolved into electronic songs. With the help of Google and Shazam, Hunter was able to determine that the vinyl has been mispressed with the album Happy Land: A Compendium of Electronic Music from the British Isles 1992-1996 Volume 1. The songs featured on the Mispressed vinyl are Cabaret Voltaire\u2019s Soul Vine (70 Billion People), Ultramarine\u2019s Happy Land, and Thunderhead\u2019s True Romance. The songs make up just a portion of the album, released in March by label and distributor Above Board. Speaking to Resident Advisor about the amusing mistake, Above Board founder Dan Hill said, \u201cSwift fans on TikTok are calling it \u2018the cursed version.\u2019 It\u2019s a massive collision of worlds as the music featured is from such different musical spheres. Mistakes happen all the time, we\u2019ve certainly made a few, but I hope the fans enjoy their surprise mix of electronic music. I\u2019m sure it\u2019s going to be a Discogs rare pressing classic in years to come.\u201d Hunter has since decided to keep the mispressed vinyl, promising she will look after it before adding, \u201cIt\u2019s probably the weirdest Taylor merch I\u2019ve literally ever got.\u201d For all the latest entertainment news, be sure to check out our page here.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
