Vendredi

I hadn’t bought a vinyl record in a very long time, but having rreplay featured on Deviere’s latest release from Until My Heart Stops was a big deal for me.  When it finally went to press I picked up a copy which arrived a few days ago.  After dusting off my turntable and setting up to digitize (wanted this on my phone also) I rediscovered that vinyl is hot.  Like really hot.  Not only are the levels high enough that you will need to back it off significantly from your usual settings, but the sound really is noticeably different.  It’s warm.  This used to be my norm before digital, and wow.  If you haven’t listened to an album recently (by which I mean any recent album) you might want to do that.  I’d kind of forgotten.

Resolving to listen to vinyl significantly more frequently now.
