2 things. 1 - Hurray for the Kallax 2 - the dibby dibby champion sound

Balls - I only just read this post…

I bought that just for the sleeve

Yeah it defo is. They do owe a fair amount to this chap mind:

I bloody LOVE these guys. Their sampling was so spot on:

Gah - mine were all originals - I think I got them from a closing down shop or something.

What I really love about vinyl is that you actually just let a record play… I spent years DJing when I was young and it’s all about a specific track - particularly with jazz and funk - you rarely sit and explore an album. As I’m wfh and just getting all my tunes out I’m really enjoying letting something just play through - I’ve never been able to do that. My 5 year old asked me if we could ‘do records’’ yesterday after school. ‘No jazz though, I want to do the scratching thing’. That’s a lovely feeling.

We are the exact opposite. The kids do sometimes take it in the car but otherwise very rarely does it come out of the dock.

Ok cool - I’ll give that a listen then. Once I’ve finished with this bad boy:
