    Ever Buy A Really Shity Record?

    i have. That happens every so often... il go int a store, see a vinyl by someone i like, and assume that fool wont put out a lemon, but every so often they do.. the two recent weak records i bought were: dj icey- dreams and tiesto and bt-lovecomes agian... ok theyre not shitty, but they arent top notch shit either.

    I want to know what the recent lemons youve bought are:

    :zzz:

    i bought a lot of lemons when i was first starting out.... now i'm on a budget and super picky.

    my biggest pet peeve with buying records is getting a shitty press. sooo annoying.

    what's really bad is when you accidentally buy a shitty record twice... like you're buying shit online... listening to the samples, and you hear the same thing in the sample that attracted you the first time... don't recognize the name of the track cause, well, after one listen you threw it in the "not going to play out" bin... and then the package comes and you're all like "what the fuck?"
    "fuck it"

    I have a couple of times. It's for that very occassion that I'm glad I have my setup in my dinning room as when I hear a shitty record that I just bought from time to time I have been know to open the window right behind me and fire it right out into the street. man oh man can shitty records fly far.

    If you buy a record and think it is shitty....give it a few weeks and try again...

    I have bought rekkids in mass orders- get the rekkid...throw it on for a sec without fully listening...think its crap and throw it in a bin...

    then I will re-discover a record I thought sucked and kick my self in the ass for it

    just a FYI

    Maybe it's good for some, but I think it's awful. I'm in my "branching into jungle" phase, so I got bored and went to Tower and picked up a couple rekkids, but this just sucks complete shit. Eh well, you win some, you lose some.

    I found a couple old but good tracks this way a couple weeks ago... I was arranging my records by catalouge code and noticed some producers that i was just getting into... lough and behold, they were good tracks that i just overlooked.

    lol @ throwin the shits out the back window... maybie ill make a modern art sculpture out of all my garbage vinyls

    the problem with playing the records in sets that "grew on you" but u first thought sucked is that the poeple hearing your set will think it sucks if its their first time hearing it...
