What's with the records?
« Reply #50 on: 07 Jun 2005, 01:09 »
What's with the unecessary "the" in the subject?

Anyway...I like records, but arguments amounting to "ooo, look! bigger artwork!" don't fly with me, 'cos I don't care about any of that stuff. Aesthetics are for people who don't actually like music. :p

I guess I will follow the argument of some others in this thread that very little music has or will ever be re-released on cd. Of course, a lot has and will, but in that case I have to ask: why should I buy it again if its not convenient for me to do so? Isn't that what this is supposed to be about in the first place? I take care of my records and stereo equipment. I don't need or want some remastered, remixed and digitized version of an album that sounds just fine on the record I've had for the past 10 years.

Playing reords just feels so much more personal ....... The whole idea of gently placing the needle on the record and turning it over and being able to see it spin around and around is really cool. I guess it's just a part of my childhood too as my mother has a collection of close to 3000 records and all which she always used to play (still does but not to such a degree as she has cd's now .... all 700 of them) so in a way i think i connect records with sentimental memories from when i was little

but the music sucks because the keyboards don't have the cold/mechanical sound they had but a wannabe techno sound that it's pathetic for Rammstein standars.

Yup. That's craftsmanship, that is. It was sagging like a bitch until that lovely support you can see between the record boxes came and saved the day. Now it's great. A bit low, but it does the job.

look, nobody cares that you're a dj.




i'm not being serious. just that this guy seems to be pretty on the money as far as a lot of djs go. but you seem to have good taste in music and know about stuff. actually this whole post was just an excuse to post that link, and i have a nasty habit of disclaiming myself too much.




sigh.

that 'nobody cares yr a dj' thing was one of the stupidest things i ever read. the guy writing it knows he only has one good point so he repeats it over and over and over again. what a loser.

Do people really worship DJs? That's just sad.

I didn't like that DJ thing either. 'everything sucks but especially you' humor like that guy uses may be a joke but its a bad one that makes the teller look like way more of an arse than his target.

yeh, i agree. although i still think he's right about a lot of people who call themseleves dj's. reading through some of his other stuff, his humour gives me the shits. but still, his point remains valid.
