Day 4 - It’s Icy out
Spin your coldest IDM/Electronic record
About as electronic as I get. Gary laid a lot of groundwork for more modern artists.

Day 5 - The OG
Spin a 1st/original pressing
The one and only pressing from 1971. Just a wonderful record. Desperately needs a repress.

The Beach Boys - Sunflower
Most of my original pressings of post-Pet Sounds LPs are a bit rough but this one is in VG+ condition and is a great album too. I highly recommend exploring the Their Post-Pet Sounds output. None of it is as consistently brilliant as Pet Sounds but their are a handful of very good to great albums and even many of the lesser LPs have interesting moments.

doomtree - doomtree
only 300 pressed. the album was finally reissued a year or two ago, but the artwork is completely different. this is one of those albums where the artist mixed in the sounds of vinyl pops and clicks, so good luck figuring out what is real vs what’s part of the song.

Day 4 - It’s Icy Out
I live in Minnesota, so around this point every year I’m so over the cold and snow. And it’s been a relatively bearable winter, temperature wise.
Anywho, not sure if this album really counts as electronic/IDM but I needed some Beth Gibbons warmth on this “icy” Minnesotan day.
“...wandering stars!”

Lucked out with this NICE original copy (easily a VG+) of Crescent. These go for a helluva lot more than what I paid, but because of a couple ticks during “Lonnie’s Lament” I was able to get this at a steal of a price.
I remember seeing this exact copy on both eBay and Discogs at the time. And the eBay listing was $10-15 more, hahaha, so again I lucked out immensely. The seller even spun it for me and told me the ticks weren’t that bad. Must have had trouble getting rid of it. Sucks to be those could have been owners.

Dire Straits - Dire Straits
Original Canadian pressing of their debut. Picked up for $6 in 2008 and still one of the best sounding records in my collection.

Lucy Dacus - No Burden
I was gonna play one of my blues records but I wasn't feeling it. I went with the original pressing for Lucy Dacus's debut. First press was limited to 330 on Egghunt Records. It's since been reissued after she signed to Matador.
