The Vinyl and Record Player Thread

I should probably just make a Music sub-topic huh…

anyways i’m very much considering finally biting the bullet and getting a Vinyl Player, which I’ve always wanted. It’d be my Eid gift to me lmfao. Here’s the setup I’m thinking of so far:

Record Player Desk
Bluetooth Receiver
Speakers
Record Player

Any advice? Recs? Favorite vinyls? Where do you buy yours? I think I might make Discovery by Daft Punk my first if I decide to go through with it.

Anyways discuss

Oh hell yeah, I hope the setup works out!!

Here are some of my go-to places for vinyls:

Mondo, Fangamer, and (sigh) Square Enix’s online shop carries some of OSTs I really like but. you have to go through Square Enix’s shop :weary:

I had to put my cheap Audio Technica record player in storage because there’s just no space in my apartment. Used it for a bit to play Daft Punk’s Discovery and Van Halen’s 1984 (found that one at a local antique stoe for cheap)

Never heard of Mondo this is cool as hell, thank you!

probs will order it next week. i wanna go to a record store with my sister when she comes back for Eid and see what we can find.

everything finally came together!! it sounds fantastic. i already ordered two more vinyl (Transistor LP and the Chicory Piano Collections).

Only issue is that i under estimated the height of the speakers so I need a new system to place all the vinyl i end up getting LOL

Thought I would show my collection, I’m taking it to the new place today anyway

Really hoping I can start listening to these again once I have a better setup in the new place. They’re all really great!

newest grab just arrived :)

this has definitely become my personality lately, RIP

Also coming soon:

  • Chicory Piano Collection
  • Celeste OST
  • Minecraft Volume Alpha got a reprint, i’m lucky
  • The Transistor OST

this kind of listening experience vibes really well with me as someone who listens to albums front to back pretty much exclusively.

i was gonna get some SQEX stuff but anyone in my Guilded saw me bitching about the shipping LOL. maybe i’ll get lucky and find something at the record store this thursday

oh this rules. I want to start collecting game soundtracks on vinyl, just find it hard to justify to myself since I don’t have space for a record player (or space for the vinyls, really) BUT I did maybe kinda pick up the Stanley Parable one when it went up on iam8bit a few days ago.

That Nier Automata one is a stunner, oh my gosh

The vinyl they released with the European collectors edition of Xenoblade Chronicles DE whips ass just for the record (hah)

Idk where I would put it but gosh, I want a record player again

What album is this? I’ve seen the cover so many times but the name of the band and album keeps escaping me.

That’s the debut album of Euro electronic duo Justice. It’s called “Cross” but the album art is I suppose meant to be the title, i.e.,

Correct!

I’m getting the itch to buy a record player now, even though I don’t have space for it… and I have some older Sonos speakers that I’d want to use for it but I’m staring down either an overpriced mediocre player or buying a compatible line-in to pair with it. :melting_face:

Man, when that album came out I was on the questionable content forums and they went about as crazy for it as you’d probably expect, as if they’d come upon the sequel to daft punk
