Vinyl World

DSC_0382_3


When you plunge into the dark side of the black stuff (i.e vinyl records listening experience), you are thrust into audio orgasmic epiphany.  You will be able to bear compressed MP3 files anymore.  LP has that groove, the warmth, the depth. In other, there is a soul in vinyl. 

In the island of Singapore, we are lucky to be able to get the black stuff readily. Warning: there is no turning back. prepare to put some serious dough on your hobby.
