Crangur Pissel Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 I came across this subscription site and was wondering if anyone has used it or knows any other sites like this, preferably U.K./Europe based. What are your thoughts if you have used vinyl subscription services. http://www.thatspecialrecord.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crangur Pissel Posted August 27, 2014 Author Share Posted August 27, 2014 http://vinylmeplease.com Thanks! I saw that one but I'd end up spending €33/$44/£26 for one record a month. It seems ok if you're living in the states, works out a lot cheaper with shipping rates as they're based in the U.S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psn Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 A couple of my buddies were members of the Sub Pop Singles Club back in 90 or so. They got a lot of cool records in the mail.

Crangur Pissel Posted August 29, 2014 Author Share Posted August 29, 2014 http://vinylmeplease.com lol the cocktail recipe is pushing it for me... like, really? Yup, like so random omg! very gimmicky! While I prefer to discover stuff for myself I think the idea could be potentially good if it's done right. When I had a look at That Special Record, it was all house/techno stuff. I knew none of the artists so I YouTubed some of them and I thought most sounded pretty good. I think if record labels you loved were doing it you'd get some gems. I think the concept suits a specific genre but from what I've seen from some of the other sites they're really aiming at a young fashionable audience that have just bought a turntable. Urban Outfitters springs to mind. I'm still intrigued to sign up if I find a suitable one, even if it's just a month or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
