How long do exclusives typically take to become available to non members now?

Depends on the moon phase I think. Seriously though, I think there is a guideline, though I don't recall what it is. A month maybe? And then there are variances for artist/label requests/demands.

Some recent ones have been the following week. I think it kinda case-by-case anymore.

They have a policy that is subject to change, and therefore changes at all times.
It used to consistently be a month. Now it's whatever.

All three tracks are really good. I'm swapping Essentials for something higher on my priority list (Little Milton has waited long enough), but that's mostly because I totally expect it to stick around for a good while.

I don't know if anyone's pointed it out, but Cosmogramma is back as a swaption after I think it vanished for a while last month. I suspect they're winding down with extra/replacement copies at this point so if you'd been sitting on it, it's now or never (or discogs)

It finally happened: Alice Coltrane sold out.

Alright, in for Jim Sullivan and Mariah Carey. I dropped my R&HH track, but I might add it back for Fist City. We'll see. I wanted to swap for Lil Kim, but Jason said they're not in the warehouse yet.

I'm gonna listen to that Mariah album during work tomorrow and also listen to that Little Simz album that's in swaps afterwards. Gonna decide which one I'll swap for between those two.

If I was to choose, I’d definitely go with Mariah Carey! The first track, “Fantasy” is one of the most joyful songs ever and the Genius of Love sample used was legit genius! Then the next track, “Underneath The Stars”, is pure, retro, elegant bliss! Those two tracks already make it better than that Little Simz’ VMP exclusive.

But Little Simz’ album that came out this year - Grey Area, is one of the best albums of the year actually!

I'm not currently a member of VMP but I will be honest this Jim Sullivan intrigues me. I knew nothing about this dude, but this album is damn good.

I'm glad I picked that for my swap a few days ago!

I like it alright too. A kinda Jim Croce-eque stoner folk vibe. I swapped for Loretta but This one has a $12 NM/NM on discogs in six months feel (lotsa swaps) so, I am gonna push my luck and wait for a cheaper copy.

Yeah I may wait, but I do have a free record offer from VMP so I might bite the bullet.

You can’t beat free!

Not really free though cuz you will be sucked back in

No, the only club that I find a good value all the time is Magnolia.

Good news, I chatted back in today and was able to swap for Paul Cauthen. At least it saves a few $$ off the pre-order.
