195 hardcore releases

Posted - 2006/06/07 : 19:49:14

alltogether I got 800 tracks, and the general price for them all is ~£1.4, so about 1,120 UK Sterling (~15 600 Swedish Crowns)

Edit 1: Actually, just recheck, and I got about 990 tracks(Vinyl, CD and MP3), so thats about 1,380 UK Sterling (19 404 Swedish crowns)

i have spent around 400 pounds on vinyl. Some of it was not worth it, as when i got it home it sounded rubbish but **** it , its hardcore and i enjoy it every time i turn the decks on.

Back in the day, aged 18, I would do, on average, £100 a week on vinyl depending on how much i needed cheering up.

Back then I lived and worked in a hotel and had no bills to pay. Talk about disposable income.

Yes I bought some crap but equally, I would say more good stuff, ahh they were the days.

City Sounds, Holborn, London, standing in a line with all the budding DJ's and vinyl addicts, tongues out waiting for the bloke in the shop to play a snippet of what he knew was the best part of the tune,
then he'd look up to see a show of hands from the people who so desperatly wanted that oh so hot vinyl.

How many times did I get home and find I'd bought a stinker, a few times but you know what the best thing is, I dont regret it one bit.

I can't remember the last time I bought vinyl but it was a long time ago.

Over the years, and what with moving, I slowly said farewell to my precious vinyl but only on one condition, I had mp3s of them.

So, with my computer bulging at the seems with old music, I am a happy man.

There is nothing quite like vinyl. The feel, the 'retroness', if there is such a word, to me is what being a DJ is all about.

Long live vinyl.

agree

well hopfully i'll have my first dexs the end of the month

I've already sorted my first vinyl collection out aswell... spending around £100 aswell as buying some of robs collection

he has eyeopener

so you know thats in the bag like...

we got talking and he asked me have i ever fort about going into CD's?

personally evan tho i ent evan got the exp from vinyl yet... i think CDs would **** IT ALL UP!!!

it just wouldn't look like a proper DJ... it would look cheep... plus... think about how easy it would be to pirate stuff...

in my opin... giving the huge amount of file sharing over the years... if it wasn't for vinyl... there would be no scene!!!

long live vinyl!!!!
