For over 8 years Tiny Engines has been on the forefront of vinyl technology and development, but not until today has a record label attempted something so innovative and groundbreaking.  Mark it on your calendar, folks: we're about to break the internet.
 
This weekend, take 15% off nearly everything in our webstore with code july4!
 
Minds blown, right?  But prepare to have your brain matter scattered throughout the universe even further when you visit our Sales section.  Here you'll find nearly 30 titles that have been discounted an additional 20-50% percent!  No code needed for these giant, mother-honking savings, but you can still use the july4 code for a total discount of up to 65%.
 
C'mon guys ... this deal can't be beat!  In fact, the Supreme President of the Coalition of Cool Records Labels just called to congratulate us on on this monumental achievement of "kicking some major ass."  Her words, not mine.  That's right - the supreme president of the CoCRL is a woman, because this is America, dammit. 
 
In conclusion, can you imagine how proud your parents will be when you tell them that their lazy, no-good sack of a son / daughter finally got a job and you plan on using your first paycheck to buy a bunch of Tiny Engines records for a what is basically the cost of 6 bags of drainage gravel?  The adulation will never stop.  Prepare to be loved by everyone and immortalized in the history books.  You're welcome, world!

Soon ... really soon.  As in tomorrow or Thursday soon.

Wise words from a wise man.

Ummm, no.

Ummm, no.

Ummm, no.

Ummm, no.

A pox upon your house, sir.
 
Actually, I don't care.  As long as you didn't share with like, 100 of your friends, we're good.  But if that's the case, a pox upon all your houses!

Most of the time I would agree with this, but in this particular case I think the transitional elements are done with a purpose and they really add to the overall beauty of the record.
 
Also, they're fairly pleasant (and quite brief), and the rest of the tracks feel so substantial and weighty, so for me it's a nice respite. All in all, I think you'll get used to them and eventually come to appreciate their role on the album!

I like that RIYL... I'll check out the song in a bit.

NO REQUESTS, HEISEL! (wink wink).

"Bought one and couldn't figure out where to put the vinyl, so I'm using it for my cupcake display."

What the hell?  I am extremely disappointed in our intern's record-holding technique.  Vinyl-party foul.

I literally haven't posted in this forum in six months ... and now I remember why.

I don't get it. You mean the part where you actually listen to / enjoy your records?
 
It's definitely daunting at first, but once you familiarize yourself with some of the basics, it starts to get a lot more fun and interesting.  The worse part about this side of the hobby is undoubtedly the financial side, and the more you get into it, the more you want to spend.  And then once you have a setup that sounds pretty good, it just makes you want to buy and listen to more records. And then you start thinking that those records you just bought could sound even better with a nicer moving coil cartridge and preamp.  And then you realize that half your gear is way above the level of the other half of your gear and you're compelled to upgrade again.  And then your shit sounds so tight that you realize that your DIY cleaning method isn't cutting it and you have to fork out a few hundred on a RCM.  And then you just fucking love records so much that you need to listen to them in every single room in your house, which means buying way more equipment than any normal person should have.  And then you realize that you've got 19,000 posts on Audiokarma. And then you start to get bored with vinyl and you concentrate on digital audio, which opens up an entirely new can of worms.
 
And then your family leaves you and you die.
