possible new physical medias for music:
1) 3D printed records with the deepest grooves possible. Coincided with a modern turntable that has a 6-inch stylus
2) A music globe... Grooves around the entire thing and plays 360-degrees of music. Can hold over 3 hours of music. Probably played with multiple lasers. Think overtone singing.
3) Music rain... a rain room where each drop of water has a note inside of it, and as they fall in sequence passed your ears, you're surrounded by a song.
Let's make these happen.

I might of, but it wasn't ever intentional. I hate the idea of those clubs. But mostly because of who I envision coming up with the idea to start one up. I see a board room of venture capitalist scum looking to cash in on a fad.
If that's how you choose to spend money and find new music, I have no problem with that or you. Even though I'm convinced for a lot less money, but a little more time and effort, you can find much more interesting records.

Is that the netflix of dollar bin fill or the one that comes with a unique cocktail recipe?
Both sound utterly asinine to me.

It was the "Netflix-for-vinyl" thing. Read this...it's long, but somehow satisfying: http://www.stereogum.com/1801049/vnyl-s ... ses/essay/super nintendo chalmers wrote:Is that the netflix of dollar bin fill or the one that comes with a unique cocktail recipe?

Oh yeah. I saw that going around a few months ago.
What a mess.

Re: The Vinyl Thread: Still Listen On Wax, Don't Use The CD
That's the sticker price, I'm pretty sure. I've splurged on a few other things lately, so I've gotta be more frugal (also, I've got a baby).Strat wrote:No. But i hadn't shopped at my store in a month and its christmas and whatever.

I still like that album.bodysnatcher wrote:was trying to get Fiona Apple's "Idler Wheel" on an ebay auction for a "fair" price for a present for my wife, but got swiped at the last second
Was spinning Soundgarden hits and Metallica self titled last night and it occurred to me that heavy music like that doesn't stand a chance getting mainstream exposure anymore. Sad.
Think I’m going to try being kind to everyone a chance.
