re: vinyl being expensive -- it sure is. but that's why as a dj, it's my job to seek out the best music (that little golden nugget among all the garbage out there) and to introduce or play it for the people who come out to have a good time. using 'vinyl is expensive' as a deterrent to perform one's job is an excuse. (that's not to say if you want to collect vinyl and that it's something you want to do but it's too expensive...well, that is an obstacle one must overcome...but if you really want to purchase music on vinyl, and that passion is really there, nothing will stop a person from accomplishing that goal). sure, digital downloads are easily accessible and compact disc's are easy to carry around to gigs...but that's just laziness, imo.
it's a vetting process. if the track's that great, it should have enough worth to be pressed onto the vinyl medium.
you think a grand is enough, eh? once you're afflicted with the vinyl addiction...i think you can relate to my disease. i live for finding what i deem the best music....whether it be old rock'n'roll 45's...or the newest pressing from 20/20 vision. doesn't matter what genre of music it is...what matters is that it was worth being pressed.
word.
