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/

I think this pinpoints the exact reasoning of a lot of rage I hold toward a lot of things

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).

I still like that album.

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.
