Day 15: I won't say that the melding of music and visual is necessarily hair raising, but it's a perfect marriage of music and design. Katamari Damacy was one of the first video games exhibited in MoMa. The premise of the game is that you're the Prince of all Comos and you have to roll up...

Day 14 Catchup: I wasn't sure how I was going to integrate flag day into my collection. I dont really have any songs about the country/flag or any covers with that kind of iconography. But I remembered the visuals in the music videos for GZA's Liquid Swords, particularly this one: I thought...

Day 12/13 Catchup: So back when I was 14 years old, I was on my high school's freshman basketball team. It ended up being my only year playing basketball and Ironman was THE album everyone talked about at school. So, of course, I had a dub of the cd that I would play on my walkman on my way to...

Day 11 Catchup: I was so excited that this was the RHH album last month. Luchini, the track people would remember from this LP, is a song designed to be played loudly. But to me, the Krystal Karrington is the perfect song to kick it all off, cranked all the way up, of course. Baby's sleep and...

Day 10 Catchup: Do I have albums I like more than Illmatic? Maybe. But there's a reason it's the gold standard for "best hip-hop album ever" discussions.

Day 8/9 Catchup: Sure, its only one regular length album, but he decided to put it on 4 10" discs, so I'm counting it, dammit. Also, its future jazzy type music, right? Anyway, I'm counting it for both days cause it's all i got right now, alright? Besides, changing the sides on this also counts...

Okay, here goes! Day 4 Catchup: Day 5 Catchup: Im lumping this in with Lucky 13 because you dont normally find something this good at a random Goodwill and I don't think I even own 30 records at this point 😂 Day 6: Not a record I'd normally show off, but it's not bad and it fits the...

Day 3 Catchup: D'Angelo's Voodoo has a plethora of great vocal performances. I paticularly like The Line, Spanish Joint, Untitled and Africa. With my limited collection, this could count as Day 4 and Day 6... but I will try to find others for those catch ups.

Day 2 Catchup: Another Day, another native tongues release. I love De La Soul is Dead, maybe moreso than 3 ft High and Rising, and the VMP release is excellent!

I absolutely LOVE this album!! Great choice!!

I bought my first used turntable about a half a year ago and it works pretty well, but the dust cover is pretty scratched up, including some deep ones. Can anyone here that had dealt with getting scratches out share some tips/methods? I am perfectly happy with the turntable, if there isnt much...

My faulty ankle made a liar of me: Breaking my ankle brace afforded me some time to play catch up early, so here goes: Day 1: I'm a hip-hop head, first and foremost. I grew up in the 80s/90s and loved listening to my walkman at night. Midnight Marauders is still one of my gold standards for...

He had my favorite beat on 50s third album

I loved Planet Asia's first 2 EPs. Handlin' Business gets stuck in my head every time he comes up.

I love this idea! Gives me an excuse to listen more... that's why I got into vinyl in the first place! I discovered this too late in the day, so I'll be playing catch up soon.... but not tomorrow (I play basketball on Tuesday nights).

I guess it really depends on what you're into. There are plenty of breweries to check out if you like beer, there's even a cidery. I like the Beltline trail, there's a lot of cool art and it goes through some pretty cool/trendy parts of town. There's a lot of shops and restaurants that are all...

Just checking in!

Not a fan of the ?uestlove era eh?

Insane in a good way?

Don't forget A-Team!
