I bought Blu's latest album on vinyl...so yes, there are people here who do buy music. lol.

I'm one of the worst offenders when it comes to Blu.

But yeah, both digitally and physically. I'm really surprised with myself when I look back at how much I've spent.

Latest digital purchase was Doppelgangaz release. If Bandcamp doesn't count, then Gibbs Baby Face Killa was my latest purchase.

Physical: should be getting my Russian Roulette LP in a couple of weeks or so. My cd came in a while ago. Oh and got ELO's remastered discography for like 30ish bucks. So hyped for that to show up.

I dont fuck with CD's anymore. Either vinyls or digital. Vinyls because I love the big artwork, digital because everything goes into my iphone and I hate storing CD's.

love vinyl for the same reason, but when i moved out here i was trying to go light, so my turntable + couple hundred records were left behind. the art is the best thing about vinyl to me - i've never felt like it sounds considerably better or anything... but i'll still always buy a cd over a digital download if i can.

What does "bigger" mean? Is there added instrumentation? Or did someone just slide a fader up and make everything louder?

Any song arrangement changes?
Click to expand...

There are some minor production changes but I'm talking more about the mastering making it sound lusher. The drugs knock harder, the bass sounds better, the vocal alteration is crazier, etc

I do. Especially if I want a flac rip of the album. I still need to adjust my rip settings. If anyone has some tips or care to share their settings, I'd greatly appreciate it.

I give ZERO fucks about FLAC or anything above 256 really. For such a lover of music, im not much of an audiophile.

fun fact, first vinyl i ever bought and the record that made me buy a record player was sage francis' sea lion single, which had a b-side with saul williams on it that you couldn't get in any other form at the time..... that shit was greeeaaat. nowadays i'm sure you can just dl it off the internet, but it was pretty special back then.

You can hear what I assume to be the original version of Bitch, Don't Kill My Vibe here.

I guess this confirms that gaga was on the song and the vocals were affected? Or maybe they were just scrapped completely. Whatever, though. the song still shits either way.

Gotcha. So, is the Trilogy replacing the mixtapes in your iTunes or what?

I have this & love it.

I enjoy vinyl the most; I feel like I'm actually purchasing something tangible--large artwork is a huge plus too. The entire novelty of it is wonderful as well: putting on each record, reading along with the album. It's an extremely dedicated listen, and makes everything a little more... Special.

I buy CDs for the car sometimes.

Almost never buy digital.

I'll just refrain from saying anything bad about this version since it hasn't been mastered or anything. Would be nice if we got a mastered version though.

Well I hold De La Soul / very high, even higher than ATCQ not to mention his other projects are very dope as well. I know this is a tangent but How do you feel about De La Soul?

I like De La a lot.. However I don't think their music aged that well.

I like their AOI CDs a lot a lot especially the first one

Ace thanks to ignorant26 I finally got around to listening to Quality Street Music, Pledge of Allegiance is cheesy/poppy as fuck but who cares? It's a banger.

Yeah, their classics are awesome, but dated. "Stakes is High" I feel also aged very well.
Click to expand...

Stakes is High is a great album. Very dark album, very angry in a way, even the upbeat songs have this undertone of anger.

Still hope Ace does a native tongues mix at some point. Throw in some Bush Babies.

Glad this version didn't make, it's awful, she doesn't fit at all.
