just a normal guy kevin Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Nick Alt strikes me as the kind of guy who refers to art, music, comedy, film, etc. as "content". birdturbo, russtcb and Moglog 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cannonfunk Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Damn, I'm not too far from Venice, I'm starting to consider walking in the store, popin a squat, and dropping a big duke in mid-store, then tell them they can send it back if they don't want it.. Awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
just a normal guy kevin Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Also, there is a chance Nick Alt & crew are seriously perplexed at the hate. "The brand hasn't changed. We just changed the content. Why are people upset?" scottheisel, dubvulture and DanielJ 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanielJ Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 Sheddin some truth Thanks for sharing this. Was actually talking to some friends about how this service is a rip off and this video just brings to light more and more evidence. I was not aware that they were sharing pictures of new releases on their social media accounts like the video mentioned. As if the whole thing wasn't misleading enough before. Also, the more and more I look into it, the more and more it seems like this whole thing was just a front to get funding for that "hip" Venice Beach store. mssskat184 and museummouth 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or start shipping old Dell printers from the 90s, PRNTR. Or live birds, BRDS. And our brand quality would never change. We had a video editor make some content for us, a short 3D Vimeo-hosted film about vinyl, and we got the bassist from Surfer Blood to do an interview for our Medium site- a great piece of content. And tomorrow we debut our newest and best piece of content: a 15 minute short film about a group of twenty-something actors in Venice exploring the neighborhood, finding the #vibes that exist in their own backyard, and eventually ending up at an abandoned dance hall by the shore (the one from the movie the Wrestler) where they encounter a small table with a turntable on it. It's called WEVNYL and it's directed by Harmony Korrin's roommate in college." Stravinsky, entendu, rynflnnry and 14 others 17 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
