To my mind, the best thing about selling records is having an endless supply of new music to discover and share. Since starting the Vinyl Records Inc, the collection of records I have at my fingertips has increased tenfold – jealous much? Just kidding. Through countless hours spent grading, pricing and otherwise digging through piles of records, I’ve made quite a few new discoveries. While I certainly don’t have time to account for all of those discoveries, I want to share some highlights so that you can enjoy them, too! Note: Most of these artists are currently available on the store, so go take a look!
Minimalist funk? Rudimentary drum machine beats matched with keyboard swells and punchy lead riffs (also keys)? Timmy is a new obsession of mine. So many bedroom R&B musicians may not even be aware of the path Timmy Thomas blazed. Somewhere between synth heavy punk trailblazers Suicide and Suggie Otis.
