How long have you been collecting records for?
One year
How Large is your vinyl collection?
39 records
Which is the most valuable record in your collection?
It is tough to say - the competition is hard between Rubber Soul by Beatles and Bookends by Simon and Garfunkel. Needless to say, there are many beautiful works in there. One of my favourites is Top Hits by Astrud Gilberto and a collection of Percussion music from around the world.
Tell us about your turntable setup.
I have an Audio Technica LP-60 BT - It is an automatic player with aux in, USB and bluetooth feature for speakers.
Any advice to people that are about to start their collection?
I would suggest to start right away - buy the albums that call out to you whenever you see them. I started my collection when I did not have a player, and I bought it in a month of collecting albums.
What genres of music do you like?
I like all sorts of genres - but I suppose I prefer music that has layers with regards to composition and lyrics. As long as a song or an album has a certain nuance in its production and quality, I love it. Whether it is electronic music or old school (although I personally give preference to old school music hehe). I suppose it would be good to mention that I ventured into music with classic rock playing throughout my childhood, and I generally usually listen to rock (post, prog, indie, classic, etc.) and I really enjoy new artists like Mac Demarco, Fleet Foxes, Kendrick Lamarr, John Mayer, Phosphorescent, etc.
