Banksy + Royksopp, by hmc on Feb 8, 2024 15:15:29 GMT 1, Hi. I've decided its time to sell my Banksy / Royksopp Melody AM promo 2x12" white label vinyl. This is numbered 38/100.
For those who don't know, this was a 2001 limited edition of 100 worldwide promotional copies of the debut album by Royksopp, issued by their label Wall of Sound. Banksy was commissioned to hand stencil the covers, which feature a stencil of some conifer trees and the band's logo. The promo includes an A4 Wall of Sound press release which states 'original artwork by Banksy' (Banksy around the same time provided the cover artwork for the label's 'We Love You...' compilation).
From 1996-2005 I worked for the band's UK concert promoters (Metropolis Music) and I was given my copy by the band's booking agent, Peter Elliott of Primary Talent. The record sat in my collection, unplayed, for many years - I had no clue I even owned it, never mind the Banksy connection - until a few years ago when I found it and realised its significance. As the promos were not released through Pictures On Walls there's no Pest Control certification for them - hopefully my provenance is reassuring.
There are a few different theories about when / how if Banksy stencilled them, including the significance of lighter / darker paint (mine is the darker colour, which tallies with being #38). You can read about it here
And you can hear the band talking about the Banksy covers here (Svein Berge from the band has #1 and #7) - listen from 22:44 and 28:50
There's been some debate on forums about whether Banksy actually stencilled the promos himself by hand - this clears it up: he did. He also talks about the different green colours and how the records were distributed to the industry (people like me). And about how he visited the band in Norway, for those who are interested.
So - condition. The vinyl records themselves are mint condition and unplayed. The cover was stored with other records for some years and therefore has some slight rubbing as you can see in the photos.
As to value: make me an offer! Secure courier postage to be organised by the buyer.
Thanks for reading.

second one? there was only one version. The so called 'second pressing' one on ebay is completely unofficial and not from Banksy. Just to be absolutely clear. |

Just tell me then : which LPs, vinyls , cd etc are from Banksy ? I mean the ones where he made the covers ? Most are all unofficial and they sell around 2k to 4k ?! And people buy them โ as a Banksy โ
Vinyls buyers should grow too, they know that they are buying fakes but they buy. Because of the covers.. Unbelievable! I bought them in 2011, inexpensive and I did not know, it was my first collections and I should keep them so.
Now they should know but they deny ( or want to ignore ) the thruth because they want absolutely the Banksy image, less expensive than a print : Itโs worth than to collect real stickers or stamps, ahah ..

I collected Banksy since 2011, and Iโm not looking on eBay but Discogs, more serious. The 2000 ex. /Danger Mouse Paris Hilton cd is an old one too, out one year after the Banksy one. - copy limited and very asked too. A bootleg weโll say.

It is down to the restricted parameters of oversight that Pest Control Office sets for itself.
Broadly, in order to qualify for a certificate of authenticity, a Banksy item must be deemed to be "a commercial work of art".
Neither the medium/technique itself (in this case, an album cover stencil‑sprayed by hand), nor the fact there are very limited numbers (here, 100), enters the equation.
Likewise when it comes to the source of the relevant items: Banksy original paintings and screenprints from Pictures On Walls qualify for a COA, whereas Banksy tote bags, t‑shirts and stickers from Pictures On Walls do not.
This album cover was paid‑for illustration work, commissioned by a record label.
Regardless of rarity, collectibility or market value, it is attributed a status by Pest Control Office that is equivalent or comparable to that of other Banksy ephemera โ like Paris Hilton CDs or individual Di‑Faced Tenner notes.

Anyway, good luck with the sale, OP. Take this as a friendly bump.

As the promos were not released through Pictures On Walls there's no Pest Control certification for them - hopefully my provenance is reassuring. There are a few different theories about when / how if Ban ksy stencilled them, including the significance of lighter / darker paint (mine is the darker colour, which tallies with being #38). You can read about it hereAnd you can hear the band talking about the Ban ksy covers here (Svein Berge from the band has #1 and #7) - listen from 22:44 and 28:50 There's been some debate on forums about whether Ban ksy actually stencilled the promos himself by hand - this clears it up: he did. He also talks about the different green colours and how the records were distributed to the industry (people like me). And about how he visited the band in Norway, for those who are interested. So - condition. The vinyl records themselves are mint condition and unplayed. The cover was stored with other records for some years and therefore has some slight rubbing as you can see in the photos. As to value: make me an offer! Secure courier postage to be organised by the buyer. Thanks for reading. Still unclear to me why PCO would not authenticate these. Great stuff. It is down to the restricted parameters of oversight that Pest Control Office sets for itself. Broadly, in order to qualify for a certificate of authenticity, a Ban ksy item must be deemed to be "a commercial work of art". Neither the medium/ technique itself (in this case, an album cover stencilโsprayed by hand), nor the fact there are very limited numbers (here, 100), enters the equation. Likewise when it comes to the source of the relevant items: Ban ksy original paintings and screenprints from Pictures On Walls qualify for a COA, whereas Ban ksy tote bags, tโshirts and stickers from Pictures On Walls do not. This album cover was paidโfor illustration work, commissioned by a record label. Regardless of rarity, collectibility or market value, it is attributed a status by Pest Control Office that is equivalent or comparable to that of other Ban ksy ephemera โ like Pa ris Hilton CDs or individual DiโFaced Tenner notes. |
