    John Manship-Enemies Of Vinyl

    in MUSIC/DJ RELATED

    Posted

    JB and Joe - if only you'd asked, I could've told you "lighter fluid" about two decades ago and saved a lot of sleeves and labels!

     

    I love how Manship calls these videos 'Enemies of Vinyl'... nothing against the guy personally or these excellent tips... but all can think about is what and enemy of fair vinyl pricing he has been over the years. For the rarest stuff he might be on the money for all I know as there's often little to compare it to, but I think he's done as much harm as anybody when it comes over-inflating values of common, dull records and generally hyping things that were neitherrare nor good.

    BEAT BATTLE: SAMPLE CHALLENGE - BGP Sampler

    in YOU DON'T REALLY WANNA BATTLE

    Posted

    I picked this up yesterday and it's prime for a battle.

     

    As part of a brief early 90s jazz renaissance, BGP issued this selection of tracks originally on the Westbound and Fantasy labels. So bait for these battles we might even temp Danswift on this one ;)

     

    The record is actually in good shape and cleaned on a Moth, but the pressing is poor so there's a few crackles. It's the price you all have to pay for keeping it real.

    As usual, the only rule is that you have to sample at least one sound from the audio files provided above. You can add any other sounds, samples, instruments, cuts, vocals, etc. The final result can be any style, medium or genre you like.

    Post up your entries in the comments of this thread.

    Deadline for entries will be the end of Sunday, 30th of June.

    Don't forget 'dog and cat' in the same post. I haven't done that yet but when I do, I'm sure my stats will rocket.

     

    Absolutely will! After my dog and cat wrestling video, I pretty much became a full blown influencer. Sadly though, I wasnt able to maintain the momentum as the dog now wont wrestle the cat - we think someone who wont be named but has a prominent moustache, handed out some rough justice while we were out one day. Theyre still friends but its a friendship thats now failing to produce content. Might have to let them both go TBH...

    How Passionate Are You About Music?

    Erm.. I spend 5+ days a week selling it, my free time playing it for my own pleasure or the pleasure of others or making it (for the pleasure of precisely nobody). I also am part of a music (well, sort of) based collective who socialise around it and until recently I had second job teaching playing and making it... and yet I still chose option 3 as i know my audience :d

    I'd do a beat but haven't switched on my 404 since the beginning of February due to the sonic mindfry I felt from making the e.p.

     

    I also need a new laptop to be able to upload shit cause the one I have at the moment is completely fucked and dead in the water,basically..I'll attempt to find a replacement and try to start contributing to the battles again hopefully!.. :)
