Surface Noise | Definitely Talking the Record Store Day 2024 List - Out NOW! Feb 16, 2024

Show notes

Yo! The Record Store Day 2024 list is out! Hear our takes (good, bad, and in between) and what does RSD do right, and not so right. Is getting up early and waiting in line with other feverish collectors worth the squeeze for this year's offerings? Joined per usual by Jason Roxas, Arnaldo (fidelios_frequency), Jose Moreno Rahn, and back for another success spin is Jason Elwood (Spinz Vinyl). After the RSD talk dies down, we tackle another topic: how much "influence" can channels in the Vinyl Community have when it comes to paid promotion versus direct reviews, and does any of this "influence" fuel the FOMO that has infected the hobby the past few years. All in all, a productive show (the freestyle after, on the other hand...whoa nelly). Tune in, tune out, and bring on this latest 'sode of SURFACE NOISE - NOW!!

Concert Buddie | Mind of The Record Collector: J.C. Feb 07, 2024

Show notes

We're bringing it back, leaning back into the series here on Vinyl Community Podcasts that asks what we collect, why we collect it, and how we find it - Mind of the Record Collector. For this installment, we are joined by a great guy in the community - J.C. - from the channel "The Flipside - Vinyl Community with J.C. - to learn how he has collecting sweet black gold over the years. A collector since 1984, J.C. has already rebuilt his collection again, and hits the pavement hard (and often) looking for those elusive records on his list. These stops can include multiple daily trips to Savers, just as much as visiting his favorite local shop - Purchase Street Records - where he often volunteers his time just to hang and help. J.C. is a big proponent of the community, and keeping it positive, and we spend some time not only learning about that, but also where this love of vinyl + music began some time ago. It's a great chat with a great contributor to the Vinyl Community. Get some, here only on Vinyl Community Podcasts! #vinylcommunity #vinylcollection #vinyl

Surface Noise | Good Thing This Costs Zero Dollars Feb 02, 2024

Show notes

We may have set the hobby back 5-10 years on this latest episode of SURFACE NOISE. Joined by Arnaldo (fidelios_frequency), Jason Roxas, Jose Moreno Rahn, and returning guest Brandon (Punkrock Showoff), we tackled the following topics:

Topic 1: music docs or biopics - any reco's and do good ones influence us to buy more records of these artists?

Topic 2: RSD Wishlist: Any titles we'd like to see on the list this year?

Topic 3: To audiophile or not? Do audiophile records matter?

Concert Buddie | VCP Turns One Special: Finding Friends in Record Collecting Jan 29, 2024

Show notes

Buddies - to celebrate a milestone here at the pod, we are extremely lucky to be joined by guest numero uno here on VCP: Matt Sands, co-owner of Gold Pan Records in Hillsboro, IL. But Matt brought two of his best pals to this episode to discuss one of the best things about this Vinyl Community of ours: fellowship. Joined us on this voyage are Sam "The Psych Professor", regular companion on Matt's YouTube channel, and their friend and shop owner of Noble Records in Matthews, North Carolina, Dillon Smith (aka The Silver Button Sniper), fresh off joining the ranks of the 100k Sub Club. We discuss how these guys started their respective journeys, and how YouTube and the Vinyl Community at large helped them meet, become fast friends, and make them all better collectors (and store owners) for it. This was one of our favorite episodes, and a great way to kick off year Two of Vinyl Community Podcasts!

On the serious tip, thank you for your support, encouragement, and patronage as this project has taken off and evolved. Each and every comment, like, download, and rating (yes, please rate us) helps fuel us to continue this project. It's no accident that it's called "Vinyl Community" Podcasts for a reason, and you, by listening and joining us for these programs, are most certainly a big part of that community.

Surface Noise | Latest Freestyle! Jan 22, 2024

Show notes

The aftershow to the latest SURFACE NOISE episode features some talk of industry data in 2023 for performance in streaming and vinyl sales, possibly answering why the labels continue to focus much of their energy on reissues (hint: because they are proven + bankable sales), and we share some records that have found their ways of late into our collections. Plus, Jose finally resurfaces in the Vinyl Community and we hear where he's been and what he's been up to, and why he stayed in the car to talk to us instead of feasting on burgers with his buddies. Riddles galore, on this latest freestyle session!
