skyhasclaws Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Does it bother anyone else when you drop the needle and you hear the song before the song you want to listen to for like 10 seconds? i like my music to flow in and out and its hard with a record player. i use to only play full sides but now i go right for songs in the middle and it just kind of sucks. any way to mentally get over this?

HoneyFrosted Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Get the album on CD? I've never really had this problem - in the rare case I only want to hear specific songs, it's pretty easy to pinpoint when I want the needle to drop, with practice.

Family Friendly Rap God Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Practice. I've gotten better with time but usually with my records I play the album from beginning to end Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
castaway Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Part of the appeal of vinyl is being forced to listen to the album as one cohesive work, from start to finish, how the artist intended it to be listened to. tooclosetosee, kolohe and daegor 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely agree. I had a bad habit of only buying the hit songs off iTunes and now I'm hearing the album in it's entirety. Mellon collie and the infinite sadness---awesome album. Oh my god. I never knew it was all awesome!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyhasclaws Posted August 14, 2014 Author Share Posted August 14, 2014 Maybe i'll start playing full sides again. it just sucks when you have to go like out or when you have to leave unexpectedly and have to stop the song in the middle of it.

codeine Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Yup, full sides. I always listen to albums beginning to end, even on CD or digital. Sometimes partial, or full discographies if I have them, and have the time for it.P.S.: Concept albums FTW! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skyhasclaws Posted August 14, 2014 Author Share Posted August 14, 2014 or when you have a rap single and it has edited version, unedited version, acappela, and then instrumental. lol. ugh. what do now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't buy things like that. I've never understood the appeal of a release that is the same song 6 times, slightly altered or remixed. It has always seemed like a waste of time and money to me, but to each his own I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

somethingvinyl Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 You know what I hate about records? The way they sound! So much fucking noise. I wish I could just get a nice, clean, sterile sound, while I spin this big piece of plastic on an overpriced discman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
