Having worked in a record store, what's your spin on the vinyl vs. mp3 debate?
I'm not a vinyl purist. More so than anything, I collect records. I collect music that's really good and is tangible in some way. I use Serato and I use records. Anything I buy on record is something I want to keep in my collection, but at the same time I want to play new music that's unreleased and stuff that I'm working on. I don't want to give up the use of the turntable, which to me is essential. It's so funny because a lot of vinyl purists will stay play so many CDs. I think it's worse to play a CD than to play a track off a computer using records. But in the end I think the vinyl industry needs to start making music which is more person-to-person, making stuff that people feel connected to. Like making the artwork deeper or having a concept that people can connect with.
