Record Store Day 2017: List of Special Releases
April means Record Store Day and in fact we’re a month away from RSD as of today; the 10th Birthday for Record Store Day too – a day which many record collectors/retailers have mixed feelings about now since it was started as a way of generation interest/sales/community to the indie stores and is now yet […]Archive

The Vinyl Countdown # 632
Delaney Davidson, Devil In The Parlour (2016) It’s a brand new/ish album so I’ve already addressed it in an actual review but this here is a file of LP bloggings, how records come to me, how I get to them – how we find each other. And you know, I was a bit slow to […]Archive

The Vinyl Countdown # 909
Willie Nelson, Teatro (1998) It’s Record Store Day! But then, almost any/every day is Record Store Day for me. Or can be. I don’t need encouragement or a reminder. But I like that Record Store Day exists. The last couple of years I haven’t made it down – hard to fit in around toddler naps […]Archive

Air: Music for Museum
Air Music for Museum The Vinyl Factory Air’s first music since 2012 is the vinyl-only limited edition album, Music for Museum. It’s a set of chilled, ambient washes – and if that album title instantly has you thinking of Eno’s ambient albums from the 1970s the content within completes that picture. Reverse Bubble has shades […]Archive
