Loveshadow - Loveshadow



First spin (acquired last December). More goodies from the excellent Music From Memory label. Here, a bit of a diversion from the usual ambient curation; we have Italian synthpop here. It is as bouncy and quirky as you probably would expect.

Tash Sultana – Notion EP



It's my wife's birthday today and she finally knows I'm taking her to see Tash on Friday... tears and excitement, I couldn't have hoped for a better response. Also, our first "date night" since before baby was born. Looking forward to it!

Daughter – Not To Disappear

First $50 donation will be announced tonight to the person who has spun the most by 9 PST.

We do need to discuss box sets. If the set is a group of albums, like the Sade box. It’s 1 per album.

If it is like the Jerry box or the Bush Tetras box. I think you should get 1 point for first two lps and then additional point per lp after the first two.

Example: Bush Tetras is 3 lps. This would get 2 points.

Also anyone else with the Sade box with big crackles on this album? I’m going to try to reclean it and then I’ll go from there

Madonna - Madonna



$2 at a church garage sale near my apartment from four years ago. Not sure if it is OG, but the vinyl is paper thin enough to suggest so.
It does sound excellent.

Madvillain - Madvillainy



Also one I got on the relatively affordable side about three years ago; ~$13 used online with some lower-right corner creasing.

FKA twigs - Magdalene



Art pop elegance. In particular, "Sad Day" has the most palpable Kate Bush inspiration in a song I can think of from the late 2010s.

Boldy James & Sterling Toles - Manger on McNichols (signed)



Spent more than I would've liked, but less than it's going for now.
Bought it just in time to get this signed when I caught Boldy's stop in Portland, which was
