Alcofribas Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 i only listen to music in scientific environments. the first thing i do is request that the mayor shut down the city, so as to eliminate the intrusive sounds from my surroundings. next i assassinate the local wildlife as they are known to produce unwanted sounds. then i go into my anechoic chamber where i have my cloud and drive set up so that i can listen to "digital vinyls," a medium so flawless christ himself is like "hey dad send me down there again i want to check out digitals." in this way i experience the most proper, efficient, convenient, superior, immaculate hearings and receivings of sound. 8 4 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also I have some fantasy in my head that the records will wear down a bit and start to sound like a well played 70s/80s synth album or something lol. Then again, I had that fantasy with Oversteps and I've only played it once. Could always flip it on discogs for 4x the price in a couple of years..

Boxus Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 why do I buy vinyl? BIG ART but I ordered the CD for this because I'm on a budget and I think this is one I'll play a lot in the car Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baph Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 Ironically enough my vinyl copy of Tri Rep is probably the cleanest sounding LP I own. I got a dispatch notice on SIGN a couple days back but it’s still showing as “preshipment” on the tracking info, which puts it on the other side of the North American continent. Bleep/Warp are always shit at logistics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Braintree Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 I got a confirmation that my LP had been shipped and I had forgotten I even ordered it. Nice surprise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

misuta Go Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 "Of course, it can take a bit of work and some deep listening to get there. But what if those layers were to be peeled back? What if we didn’t have to wade through hours of fractal rough to uncover those hidden gems of pure machine-funk beauty? What if the melody on Confield’s ‘Pen Expers’ wasn’t obscured by what sounds like coins being sucked into a giant vacuum cleaner? What if ‘6IE.CR’ on Draft7.30 were just the pads and not the cyborgs?" ~ my problem with SIGN exactly ~ 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
