One Taylor Swift fan may have stumbled upon a novel method of musical discovery for anyone burned out on streaming services: misprinted vinyl records. On Monday, TikTok user @mischief_marauder posted videos of her new vinyl copy of Speak Now (Taylor’s Version), Swift’s rerecorded third album released last Friday. However, at least two tracks on the TikTok user’s copy were very much not Swift’s: as Resident Advisor points out, @mischief_marauder’s vinyl contains the songs “Soul Vine (70 Billion People)” by Cabaret Voltaire and Thunderhead The Word By Eden’s “True Romance.”
In a second video, “Happy Land” by Ultramarine can be heard.
All three songs appear on the compilation Happy Land: A Compendium Of Electronic Music From The British Isles 1992-1996 Vol. 1, released by Above Board. In another @mischief_marauder video, songs from Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) can be heard, suggesting that the entire record wasn’t replaced with the groundbreaking sounds of artists that also include Aphex Twin as Strider. B., Liquid Son, and many, many more.
“Swift fans on TikTok are calling it ‘the cursed version,'” Above Board founder Dan Hill said in a statement to Resident Advisor. “Mistakes happen all the time, we’ve certainly made a few, but I hope the fans enjoy their surprise mix of electronic music. I’m sure it’s going to be a Discogs rare pressing classic in years to come.”
