Vinyl, kassetter, CD-er, MiniDisc, og digitale tjenester – del 1 av 2

Jeg har egentlig aldri likt vinyl, jeg foretrakk kassetter back in the day. Når CD-en endelig kom, var det aldri noen konkurranse lenger. MiniDisc var utrolig bra, og et format jeg digger. Det er synd det aldri kom nok musikk i det formatet, så CD-er ble hovedgreia.

I dag kjøper jeg digitalt, og aller helst via Bandcamp.com. Noen ganger tyr jeg til HDtracks.com, men de er ofte temmelig dyre. En god del større slipp er dog kun å få tak i der, eller iallfall ikke på Bandcamp.

HDtracks har fått en del ny-utgivelser av Scorpions sine album, noen av dem, men ikke alle. Scorpions er ett av mine favorittband, men det går stort sett i albumene fra 80- og tidlig 90-tallet. De var også det første bandet jeg så live i Oslo Spektrum (supp.: Winger).

Scorpions har for øvrig ett av svært få live album jeg liker, og det er et album jeg kjøpte nå. World Wide Live er dessuten et album jeg hadde på både vinyl og kassett, når jeg tenker meg om.

Kanskje ikke den beste låta, men her er Loving You Sunday Morning.

Bandcamp waiving their revenue share

It’s so cool that Bandcamp.com waive their provision from sales for 24h the first Friday of the month (May-July). I managed to get plenty off my wishlist and into my collection. 😁

Like the tweet below state, they’ve sold for $4.3m in the first 14 hours.

They will waive their revenue share every first friday of the month of May, June and July. It’s music release day, so that’s extra cool. Also, if there’s something you want to pre-order, do it when they have these waive days, and also wishlist things and buy them during these days.

Wanna check out my collection and/or follow me on Bandcamp? You can find the link on the right side here under Follow me.

Alcest – Protection (2019)

A new album, Spiritual Instinct, by Alcest will be arriving on October 25th. This is the first single from that album and *spoiler alert* it’s pretty damn good, and I’m really looking forward to the album!

So far no dates has been added in Norway/Scandinavia for their upcoming tour, but hopefully something will come later. 🙂

Speaking of Alcest (Neige). He is featured in one of Ison’s songs from their upcoming album INNER – SPACE. Ison is another favourite of mine and they consist og Heike (Draconian) and Daniel (Crippled Black Phoenix + many, many more). Make sure you check them out and buy their beautiful music.

Anyway, here’s the song with Neige:
