    Diggin' in NYC circa 2014

    Those spots are still good to go. Everything else is in Greenpoint it seems...the BK Academy, Captured Tracks, Record Grouch, The Thing, etc...all very close to each other you just have to navigate the G train to get there. The Academy on 18th Street in manhattan is worth checking out as well.

    Share some boogie sure shots

    It's unfortunate that you write off the "over-polished" boogie joints right off the bat because those are the best bang for the buck classics! That raw, "un-polished" boogie sound is hot at the moment i guess but those records are very expensive and in my opinion very few of them can ever...

    People Who Relist Items on Discogs on a Daily Basis

    I think you guys may be mistaken. It's not necessarily relisting that makes them pop up in your wantlist feed. Changing the price does this also. So you may be seeing the same record in your want list again but the price was lowered (or raised). If you feel like you are getting spammed, do some...

    August Finds

    LaserWolf said: Major Records Library find. I got a bunch of those Valentino library lp's from Academy dollarbins a few years ago...I kinda cherry picked the funky ones. Not sure why they were a dollar but I wasn't complaining! I'm sure we probably have a lot of the same...

    Stephen Encinas ”Disco Illusion” re-ish is out

    Sweet_Premium said:disco_che said: I don't get any of this. Neither why it would be better to have the track spilt in two parts, which never happenend on the original release, nor why this would empty a dancefloor. This track kills in every decent disco/house-set as long as it's played in an...

    tokyobeats said:Not many edits are done well, agree there are way too many. But, with records like cerrone-hooked, the KON edit is much better than the original, same with cole medina edit of bee gees..... Nothing wrong with a GOOD edit true, nothing is wrong with a good...

    riddle me this-why are northern soul guys such uptight dorks?

    because they spent over a thousand dollars on a mediocre rare soul 45 that is VG-?

    Word Or Turd / Unknown Disco Modern Soul 45

    i'm saying it's soul from the disco and boogie era...i/e late 70's thru the 80's...it's definitely different that boogie.

    Word Or Turd / Unknown Disco Modern Soul 45

    maybe this is a topic for a different thread...and i'm sure it's been covered already. disco and boogie are fairly well defined to my ears...boogie picks up where disco left off at the turn of the 80s and is more synth driven and heavier on the funk...i guess. modern soul seems like a...

    Word Or Turd / Unknown Disco Modern Soul 45

    i guess i was just expecting it to be really borderline to questionable so i was pleasantly surprised that it's a solid 70's soul tune with a hint of disco...maybe not amazing but pretty dope. and i feel you Rockadelic...i wouldn't know how to judge many genres....such as death metal or modern...
