Following a two-year investigation, several properties in Aschaffenburg and in the federal state of Hessen were raided, with officials seizing a significant number CDs, DVDs and vinyl records. The evaluation of the material is still ongoing. ______________________________________________________________________________ Wonder how many bootlegs (e.g. Beyonce, Yeezus) this plant was responsible for. Also, hopefully the vinyl pressing parts/machines can be sold to other pressing plants (such as URP) to increase their capacity. I am guessing this kills a lot of the bootleg stuff that vinyl-digital.com was selling, since they were based in Germany.

Hello everyone, I've read some of your horror stories about ordering from vinyl digital, so I'm hoping I can buy some of this stuff from the board instead of ordering from them. Anywho, I'm looking for Frank Ocean- Nostalgia/ULTRA Frank Ocean- Channel Orange (preferably the Orange variant) Drake- Nothing Was The Same (preferably the blue variant) J Cole- Born Sinner Kanye West - Graduation (colored variant) Kanye West - Yeezus Inbox me! Thanks for your time

Heya. I thought it would be nice to open a new topic/thread to follow where people can post news on the latest vinyl releases coming out, and more in depth information on what is hot off the press, what is rare or hard to find, collectible releases, and wish lists on what we wish would be on vinyl. I often go vinyl digging and regularly visit a few vinyl stores on a weekly basis, so would be great to have a thread that keeps everyone updated on whats new! So far I have seen a reproduction of Beastie Boys - Licensed To Ill come out recently on vinyl under the tag BEASTILL008 , also the new Beyonce - BEYONCE album under BEYBEYLP006, and yesterday R. Kelly - Black Panties out on a double LP which was quite exciting to see, on a clear type of vinyl, also limited it seems to 1000 LP's only. That seems to be searchable under RKELLYBLACK002 . I'll neatly try to post here any information or news or pictures as I get them. I think it will be a fun and informative post to follow! =O) Gabs~ ^ __ ^
