    ^Nice! tell us how does the vinyl sound when you get the chance to listen to it.



    Just bought the Deerhunter - Monomania LP and I received the Shigeto - Lineage (Redux) last week. Looking forward to listen to them after I return to home (visiting my parents this week).

    That's awesome that you obtained this, but I really hate to be a debbie downer. That Mond-008 references the catalogue number of the release. They aren't individually numbered. Sorry dude!

    It sounds great! Just wish it was at least an ep worth of tracks.

    Just picked up the new Deerhunter album. Classy ass packaging, with the printed interior and all. Sounds phenomenal too.

    Vinyl Collectors Unite!

    We're redoing our place. So we took the tv off the wall and put it in my studio. We don't really watch tv. And I brought all my records and gear out from my office and set it up in the living room in its place.

    My wife found this old dewie decimal system that works great if you remove some of the drawers.

    Wow holy shit I forgot aaaaaall about that band. Are they even still around? I remember everyone clamoring for NIN to use them as an opener back in the day.

    "hiatus"

    i really hope they pull their shit together cause theyre one of the few bands that can successfully pull off the genre. i really dig his voice too. as for the vinyl, i dont even want to touch it and risk fucking it up lol, been hunting one of these down for about 3 years now.

    that brings up an interesting discussion. do you guys collect just to have or collect to listen to? i used to be precious about records, especially considering what i collect is $100+ coldwave and minimal synth records from 1980s europe, but as a DJ, i prefer to spin records. i never get drunk enough to not care how i'm handling them, and i have a record cleaner to keep the dust and dirt out as best as possible, so they generally stay in good shape, outside of sleeve stress as i'm spinning, but i've never been too particular about cover shape.

    the way i see it, they're meant to be enjoyed. if it's a new release, chances are you have it backed up elsewhere at hi quality. if it's a rare recording, rip it to wav/flac, back it up incessantly, and enjoy. sure, i've scuffed a few precious vinyls up and had to replace them (or depending on how impossible to find they are, dealt with it) but the enjoyment i've gotten and given vastly overshadows my need to keep everything NM.

    I buy vinyl to listen to it, but I also like getting the special editions or limited pressings as well. Not so much as "oh this will be worth so much in 10 years" but just because I'm a sucker for marketing and always feel like I need the cooler version. I don't frame them or leave them unopened either. So I guess, I'm a collector but not a collector in the traditional sense. I "take my toys out of the box" if you will.

    ditto. i'm such a sucker for box sets and special editions, but i also like to actually listen to my records. i clean every side of every record with a static master before i play it so they stay in good condition.
