I was thinking a lot about records last night…I guess for me, the appeal isn’t in the tone being better or any of that crap. I just think we’re used to electricity being able to do all sorts of crazy stuff, so digital music isn’t that interesting. But here is a physical object that is MUSIC! Watching it spin around like a pottery wheel, it’s all really interesting and physical and precise and mechanical! They’re collectable as fuck too.
And you can do shit like make the disc green O_O
please why no dont say that

Maybe I’ll set the queue to post a bit later so Americans will actually be awake when I post. It’s set on 6 PM GMT +2 now.
chrysanthedads asked: So how do you handle records properly- what are the basic guidelines?
1. Do not touch the playing surfaces of the record.
2. DO NOT touch they playing surfaces of the record.
3. Store upright, away from heat sources and direct sunlight.
4. Dust the record off when it appears dusty with a SPECIAL RECORD BRUSH, not a piece of cloth.
5. DO NOT TOUCH THE PLAYING SURFACES OF THE RECORD.
For my listening pleasure tonight, before meeting some friends for a drink or two
