Confargous say:
He who look deep in to the bowels of darkness find that which make him
appreciate it even more. Me enjoy a Prime Rib more than a Krusty-burger,
but must look harder and pay more shillings.
Ohh! Poor guy! It is called economics. Rephlex has the right to print as
many of them as they want big or small. Respect to labels like Rephlex who
respect and preserve the Underground!! Fuck labels that are just trying to
make money or their only aim is to sell as many records as they can. Maybe
you should shell out $30 bucks and by a used turntable, cause you are
missing out on a hell of a lot of vinyl only releases from many labels that
are excellent, and judging from your list of c.d.'s you were selling you
have something to learn about techno and idm that is not so mainstream!
Part of the fun of trainspotting is that this music is not always the
easiest to get, and therefore when you do find of real gem, it makes it all
worth it. If you are serious about this music you should be able to line up
a place to hook you up with the goods. Many stores have been mentioned
before. Regarding the being cool thing, lay off it! I won't even start in
on that. Lets just say being a Hipp-e, Groove-e, or Ton-e is a dime a dozen
in my corner of the globe. You might want to lay off of the vowels, and
spend the $$ on vinyl.
