Vinyl Me Please (store, exclusives, swaps, etc)

[Kyuuji]

Interested in picking up Kala as a swap but legitimately don't know if I want to swap anything lol. Tempted to roll on Young Thug to swap and grab that next month in place of Doors.

Initial thought was Sturgill but it's nice having some Country coming into the collection.

In all my years of VMP I've never swapped. But if there's nothing new with Sturgill besides color I may. Does swapping for credit give you the credit instantly? Can that credit be used on membership add-ons or store exclusives only?

Your credit will go through at the end of the month, same time your album(s) would move to you Orders page.

So I swapped Darkside for CCR and am keeping King Curtis. Nothing I wanted to swap RHH for and I already have Metamodern Sounds and don't feel like paying $33 for a color variant. Kind of a lowkey month.

Which CCR was in swaps?

Pendulum

Nothing grabbed me this time, might swap Darkside for Billie Holiday. How does that pressing sound?

Also I got my add-ons open if anyone wants to grab something.

Any guesses on how much they're gonna want for their Emma-Jean Thackray store drop tomorrow? It's a double LP, but I sure as balls hope they're not gonna go with a $45/50 tag on it (but also suspect they will.)

My copy sounds really nice. Great pressing.

Swapped RHH for that Dadawah reggae album, but think I'll keep everything else this month.

That album is so damn good but I already have the dug out pressing that sounds awesome. Anyone know if the VMP is any different or better than that one?

My first was trash. Second absolute magic. if you get a good copy then it’s great

Has this been confirmed or is it a hunch?

I've done the math, and if it falls into the new $45/50 price point, the exchange and shipping will be the same as buying from her bandcamp, so I'll probably hang tough until Friday and get her more of my money instead. But my bank account is hoping for a lower VMP price.

I have to admit that her music has never captivated me as much as others on the London jazz scene (although I did enjoy her Walrus EP).

Maybe this will be the one to fully engage me, either way I'm just thrilled to see companies like VMP shining light on the UK/London scene.

You think they will be throwing down any Nicholas Jaar-tied exclusives to coincide with the Darkside ROTM?

Besides LP 2 which is already up for pre-order, no.

Too good an idea probably.

I love that Billie. I've heard some folks complain about some pops or warps, but mine was fine. Wonderful record, enjoyable press.

My lesson has been learned and I'm going to avoid buying Pure Phase from VMP and wait until my local gets it for about 2/3 the price.
