The whole thing is tragic and my heart goes out to everyone affected. I just saw this pop up on Instagram. I imagine the loss of all that music must be incalculable. https://www.instagram.com/p/DExf4kMJR-7/

No worries man... I guess the weather in southern Europe probably makes a big difference for me personally. My life is basically based outdoors. Also I've skateboarded since 87 so I never have problems having an in. But in Amsterdam at the spots I go to there is a cool guy vibe I haven't...

No advice... (why am I even replying :) I guess it's the allure of a European capital... the locals are pushed to the side by high rents and institutional investors and you have a large transient population. Nobody is settling in these kips without baller money. I'm currently on a break from...

Jimster said: Yes! There is real, dry, humour in there. The lady with the log etc. He can't keep up the darkness incessantly. ..."My log does not judge..." I had a spare week last week to watch the entire Twin Peak series back to back topped off with Fire Walk With Me... The tone...

Jimster said: Junior said: Thread hijack, what say you on the Miles in general? Visionary or talented self marketer with a top ear for collaborators? Good question. Visionary with a top ear for collaborators. Visionary enough to not want to pigeonhole his style, to embrace other...

Interesting... when I read the thread title I immediately thought Sabbath... but for me throw in Can, Neil Young, Herbie Hancock, Alice Coltrane, John Martyn, Weather Report, Pink Floyd, Iron Maiden... there's probably a ton more. The only artists I can think of of a more recent vintage would be...

There's still two stores in Dublin, Ireland. Are these the only ones left outside Japan? I know one of the stores in Dublin has a whole floor dedicated to vinyl. Pretty well stocked across the board from what I've seen in there.

Stumbled upon this guy's mixes when I went looking for some 92 era hardcore stuff. There's a bunch of early DnB and Hardcore mixes. Well worth checking out. https://soundcloud.com/mickeybeam

I'm no boxing fan but I found this article a really interesting read. The description of the fight is quite harrowing. I'd never heard of Emile Griffith before. http://www.theguardian.com/sport/2015/sep/10/boxer-emile-griffith-gay-taunts-book-extract?CMP=fb_gu

First I hear about Christopher Lee and now Ornette. Not a good day for legends. This man's music means so much to me. Considering his impact on music you would be forgiven for thinking he was immortal. But I guess through his music in a way he is...

Not record related at all but I guess the sheer scale of the pillars of creation have always fascinated me. It's where stars are born. edit: this is actually the higher res version they took in 2014 with hubble.

For reasons I now cannot fathom the sight of these guys in a cave used to scare the crap out of me as a child.

Bummer... the one weekend I'm not in Bristol. Flying back to Dublin to see my sister and her baby. Bristol is small. Pleasant enough to spend an afternoon and evening in... not much in the way of records though.

Cool little Soulman interview: http://www.unkut.com/2015/03/phil-most-chill-aka-soulman-the-unkut-interview/ I've followed Phil since he had that World of Beats website years ago. I didn't know he also did flyers.

Electrode said:There's a pressing defect on the outer run-in groove of my Bob James 2 which causes the first several seconds of Mardi Gras to skip :holygrail: Mine has the exact same defect... bad run or bad luck?

I'm from there but haven't dug seriously in the city for years. In fact I live in Bristol now but this place opened in the last couple of years and would be worth checking out. https://www.facebook.com/recordspot?ref=br_tf But in general the city isn't great for records...

Been on a bit of a Bill Evans kick lately and I think it fits the mood...

I'm pretty sure that looping a song for that amount of time in an office environment would lead to what happens in the video below (I work in a school so the op's premise wouldn't really be possible there). Maybe the song in that video? But for me it would probably have to be something...
