I need to get a new turntable cart, I am running on a poorly aligned backup like a barbarian slob. My M97xe died, coincidentally Shure ceased all cartridge production, and the prices for replacements are currently: very stupid.
The Umurangi Generation (including Macros songs) soundtrack is getting a limited release and probably soon to sell out? It’s other variant is already sold out.
too bad it’s LRG (a company i refuse to deal with in any regard) and not like ship to shore phonoco or data-discs
honestly the soundtrack of HoD (probably my favorite castlevania soundtrack outside of maybe akumajou densetsu with the VRC6) is not one i’d think would particularly benefit from being on vinyl. it’s a very contextual soundtrack
also wish they’d been a mite more creative with the cover art for these
like, vinyl can kind of soften and even “muddy” things just slightly, extremely mild “cutoff” feel, cracks and pops and ambient physicality seeping in
for HoD, it already sounds like an approximation of itself. your imagination is 100% key in making the soundtrack sing to its full potential. your brain as active participant is an important part of this equation for HoD’s music, and giving the raw waveforms more “noise”/variance isn’t really going to help? i don’t think, anyway
