I have to be quite real. I love buying vinyls when I can. For me, there’s something really special about listening to an album on vinyl. It is such a comfort to me especially since I spend a lot of time alone. To me, I’m not just buying a physical item but an emotional experience that I can relive over and over again. To experience music in this way, to me, feels intimate and spiritual. I think it’s worth it. Maybe this is a really dramatic way for me to justify something silly. But it really makes me happy! Ps. another thing I love about vinyls that I forgot to mention is the ritual of it. I love clicking the start button and flipping it over when side a is done. Ok I’m done geeking out about it, thank you for reading.

Essentially, if you don’t think it’s that deep, maybe pass on buying vinyls. But to me it is that deep!

I have a pretty decent sized vinyl collection, but by seeing a physical copy of the artists music is really cool to me. You don’t experience it as each song individually, but you experience the album in its entirety in order, and you get to see even more love put into it by the way the cover is arranged and sometimes they put in little trinkets to let you know that the artist really loves you.

Because laying on the floor crying and getting comforted by your favorite record playing on your record player is an almost catharsic experience and worth every penny. Its like hearing your favorite artist for the first time again. (And dont forget to let the record play on mute on Spotify to get the scrobbles for last.fm. We are depressed, not barbaric)

some people enjoy spending after hours shopping for new clothes. me? the record shop has always been a place of pure solace. the funny thing is, i don’t even own a record player - i just enjoy flipping through the lyrics and credits and immersing myself into the art of each album.

…not ā˜¹ļø. For whatever reason I keep posting and then deleting my recs immediately. I’ve gotten shy on here. I used to be so bold. I don’t know what happened !!!

I’m currently in the back seat of my friend’s car listening to their future plans. It’s lowkey terrifying me. However….take this as your sign that you don’t have to know what you want. You’re not alone!!!
