The Hamilton Record & CD Show

[nfotxn]

So The Hamilton Record and CD Show is this Sunday. There's gonna be tons of vendors and hopefully many records to be bought for cheap. I'm hoping to score a copy of Soft Cell's Non-Stop Erotic Cabaret in mint, otherwise there's a few ebay auctions I could persue. If anyone wants to come along admission's $3, it'll be fun!

I love retro-80s, I know it's very popular right now but I find it so alluring. I figure it's 'cause I was around all this music as a kid and liked it then but had no time to appreciate it.

Hmmm....

YOu know that is available on cd? Or are you just looking to score a mint copy of the vinyl?

Their latest album, Cruelty without Beauty, is almost as brilliant as Non Stop Erotic Cabaret.

: )

Oh it's totally available on CD, there's even a re-master edition. But I want the vinyl. I have this thing.. I buy vinyl and just download the MP3s in a lot of cases. It meets all my needs.

Juuuuust curious.

If you like neo-retro 80's/New wavey stuff, I'm sure you've heard of "The Faint" right?

Yup, had Danse Macabre since it came out. It's a fun album, I'd love to see them live! There is of course Ladytron, Mount Sims, DMX Krew, Charles Manier, Legowelt etc. all in the same vein.

Rawkin' I like that album. I remember first hearing it on 3wk internet radio. My little goth brother of course already had the album so I just borrowed if from him. Thanks for the name dropping, I must go listen now!

Haha, little goth brother, that's cute! No problem with the name dropping, you should check out slsk if you're looking for this kinda stuff. My user name's the same on there btw.

Hey, are DMX Krew, Charles Manier, and Leogwelt just appearing on the disco Nouveau Addendum
as artists? ok..wait n/m I just asnwerd my own question because I can not spell Nouveau and I had to open the txt file.. This stuff is quality. I have been listening to various artists like plaid, nobukazu tekemura, and now this stuff.. but I still don't know any of the jargon really.. IDM, elctro, electroclash..
I feel like I'm moving away from the harder techno to something else now. (Though I will always be loyal!) I have a lot of drug / conditioning theories that I'm applying to this :) I am probably going to pick up buying records again when I move out. I believe I'm going for deep house... in the meantime I will listen to my mean collection of Mp3's gathered from my friends in missouri and in hamilton.

Electro/electroklash is really a retro-progressive movement towards older electronic sounds. It's pretty trendy right now.

IDM is a little more creative and progressive. There's a lot of newer sounds here mostly aided by cheaper gear in the form of digital instruments (VST/VSTi etc). Noteable artists include: Akufen, Farben, Matmos.. lotsa others.

If you guys are looking for good deals, i hear going near the end is the best..cause they're usually trying to get rid a lot of their overstock.

Oh yeah? Sounds like a good idea! Thanks for the tip!
