Yeah, I wasn't too keen on the special editions anyway; good to know about their generally bad practices. It looks like I might go the local store route too - I haven't been in 5 months and I'm sure there are some around here being safe enough to make me feel ok about it. Ugh, reminded how much I miss my therapeutic crate digging.

Looks like bandcamp is having another revenue share waving day tomorrow, so I might order a few records there. Could use some inspiration; does anyone have something killer they've bought off of there recently or something that gets a lot of playtime for you (bonus if it's a lesser-known artist/band who might really benefit from the extra revenue)?

Good call; I'm sorely lacking in the Rob Crow vinyl area, PLUS I felt bad about missing (for a dumb reason) the Pinback show here recently(ish). CPL593H posted:Apparently you can buy Tropical gently caress Storm records on bandcamp so do that. Thank you, yes, another good call.

I have no idea what your musical tastes are, but last month I got Heritage by Mark de Clive-Lowe and tomorrow will probably pick up Heritage II. Some other random recs: CBD by Count Bass D harkens back to his Dwight Spitz/Act Your Waist Size days. Butcher Brown's Afrokuti: A Tribute to Fela. My favorite local jazz band doing Fela-inspired beats. IV by Chris Schlarb's Psychic Temple aka the guy who did the awesome Dropsy soundtrack. BADBADNOTGOOD - III Wait holy poo poo they reissued this album? Whelp I know what I'm getting tomorrow.

Yeah, no blanket change in prices, just thought I'd take advantage of the opportunity to give artists a little extra since I can't shell out for live show tickets at the moment. Thanks for the suggestions, Ballz - I'll check out the ones I'm not familiar with and I'm sure at least a couple will make the list (my musical tastes are haphazard, so I just figured anything someone takes the time to recommend would be worth checking out).

Yeah curbside sucks because none of the stuff I would go digging for is on their website. It's all new LP's or VERY EXPENSIVE collectables. Nobody is going to take the time to upload hundreds of $1 12" singles and I don't blame them, but at the same time I can't even show up with a $100 bill and say, "here take this and give me the first 100 records in the "Singles" bin so I can do my own digging. Is this what a gambling addiction feels like? It doesn't even matter if you win or lose. It's the excitement of rolling the dice.

Gonna proselytize on behalf of my beloved, Tuscon’s own Golden Boots. Strongly suggest DBX ‘n’ SPF. There’s 1 left. Grab this loving album! There’s also the handmade cover version if you wanna spend a few more dollars. Dmitri does the art. There’s 8 of those left. Labyryyynth is a great one too. Sadly most of their catalogue is out of print and, while mostly affordable on Discogs, that doesn’t help the artist and doesn’t fit the nature of your request. Still, check them out. And buy DBX ‘n’ SPF. GnarlyCharlie4u posted:Yeah curbside sucks because none of the stuff I would go digging for is on their website. It's all new LP's or VERY EXPENSIVE collectables.

It may not be as harmful as gambling, and unlike gambling, with this, you actually HAVE something after spending money, but the underlying neurosis remains the same.

Mine's definitely closer to gambling because I like to buy up all the blank white label singles/bootlegs and take them home and clean them up and spin them to see if they're any good. Sometimes you win. Sometimes you get a box full of incoherent screeching and ambient noise.

Lazy Lynch and The Jack Cruz finally decided to show up It is warped but since a vaccine will probably arrive before a replacement disc would, I’ll live with it. Or maybe not. I don’t know. Meanwhile, Giga Gaia posted:got my jack cruz and listened to it. now to put it in the stacks and forget it exists. pwn posted:Another $15 well-spent  pwn posted:this is a compulsion.

Oh hey, I was just looking at Chris Schlarb's Bandcamp and it looks like he found a few extra copies of the first Psychic Temple album. This is actually my favorite of the four main PT albums and the packaging is really neat.

I ended up getting a little something from everyone's recommendations (including that last copy of DBX 'n' SPF). Also grabbed that new Count Bass D on digital because I know I'll want to play it while driving. For the stuff that was new-to-me, I only listened to a couple samples each to see how I liked it, so when they arrive at the end of July, it's going to be a great time for new music discovery. Thanks again to everyone who suggested something!

I once bought duplicates on the same day. I saw it at a first store, waffled over it and then bought it, then a couple hours later was at another store and bought it again because I misremembered and thought I'd decided not to buy at the first place. My brain is broken. Worked out, though, because the first copy had an issue on the surface that I hadn't noticed, causing a skip during one song, while the second copy was pristine. Also, my problem is that I'm not good about actually checking discogs for dupes before buying something. Edit: It was OMD's Junk Culture, and one of these days I'm going to put in effort to try to fix the issue so I can resell it - it's a good album if you're into OMD. marjorie fucked around with this message at 16:26 on Jul 3, 2020 |

Today I also discovered that BBNG has two different Bandcamp accounts offering different albums: This page has mostly older stuff, including the Ghostface collaboration This page includes more recent offerings, such as 12" single with Snoop Dogg that has a b-side etching Their most recent album IV is also on vinyl in that second link. Definitely one of my favorite albums to come out of the last decade.

I'll buy any recording of ives under $3 so he comes up pretty often.

After listening to a ton of vaporwave and future funk lately, I decided I'd try my hand at picking up a copy of the new record Saint Pepsi put out today. I thought it sold out fast at 14 minutes but apparently that's anomaly? That's cool. Now I just wonder how long the shipping is going to take from the U.K.
