Anybody fukk with Vinyl?

[BelowTheMasonDixon]

My folks are old heads which I guess makes me old too. But I always liked the sound that needle hitting the vinyl make. and the quality.(Which I no makes zero sense, Cd's are superior) but nothing like having an album imo. Any places in your city still sell records.

I've got a few friends who bought vinyl players in the past two-three years and swear by it.

I get the "special feel" you get from vinyl, but my feeling is all albums today are recorded to be listened to via CD/mp3.

If you're an old head listening to albums recorded for vinyl, good for you ... but if you're listening to hip-hop, you probably can't beat CD/mp3. (ignorant opinion without looking entirely into it, so prove me wrong if I indeed am)

Nah I can't prove you wrong, its no contest. The sound is superior in every way. BUT Vinyl is something special IMO. or maybe its not maybe I'm just a young old nikka who grew up on it and liked it. Nothing wrong with CD's And to be honest Tapes sound horrible. But to me you cant mimic the sound vinyl. its old school and something that shouldnt be lost. DJs spinning records are a whole different animal from DJs with cd's

Vinyl industry been on the up and up last few years people really starting to fukk with it (most sales since 1997 i believe)

 

[stealthbomber]

i got a few vinyls of some classics (mostly non hip hop) but a lot more cd's

u aint a real head if you dont have physical copies imo

I once bought Biggie - Going Back To Cali / Sky's the Limit on 12" vinyl, this was years ago

 

[observe]

Ahhh..the sound quality on vinyl is superior to CDs..matter of fact it's the best format for sound

 

[RTF]

When I buy songs, albums I usually buy vinyl. There hasn't been a hip-hop album i've rocked with tough this year but i'm getting the Janelle Monae album on vinyl this week.

CD's look cheap. I have iTunes/CDQ/grouprip of major releases anyway. Vinyl looks classy. Stick it on.. sit back and let a stellar record literally spin front to back.

vinyl is the best sound, sometimes you can hear shyt u never heard before

i got illmatic on vinyl and i can hear little stuff i never heard when bumpin the cd

i got a little bit of shyt on vinyl, mostly golden era stuff and 12" singles with the rare remixes on em

i got 2 bookcases full of old 70s vinyl i use for sampling for production

vinyl is great

somethin about having that physical copy and the giant case opening it up and reading it while you put the needle on the record and listen

it makes the music connect with you

its almost a romance

weird but true

try it

 

[The Bilingual Gringo]

The highs and the lows are better on vinyl, however degradation is always a factor with any tangible format. I love the organic sound of vinyl.

I could spend an afternoon in any record shop. Whenever I see one, I'll stop in for a few at least.

 

[really tho]

Got whole bins full of vinyl. Got reasonable doubt, blueprint, black album, illmatic...got that purple tape: two clear purple records... Got ready to die, 2 white vinyls...3k copies made
