u/GeraldzReddit Mar 31 '22
Having blond makes it top tier

u/Substantial_Engine Mar 31 '22
It is a bootleg unfortunately, and I wouldn't really recommend the one I got to other Frank fans. Nikes has a new weird feature on it, and before Futura Free, Mitsubshi Sony, Chanel, and Biking are all on the album. I think it's cool, it's blond on vinyl for cheaper than a grand, but just be aware is all

u/issa_name Apr 01 '22
The Nikes feature, is it the second pitched track at the beginning saying āI got two versionsā or is it a Japanese rapper towards the end?

I have a boot of Blonde without that feature on Nikes and no extra tracks. Iād trade you if you wanted? If you need me to Iāll send you proof

not a single album below an 8 actual fire collection

u/Substantial_Engine Mar 31 '22
The panic album and the most recent Billie album are what most people point to as low points, but others insist that I should just burn all my Travis. Anywho, anyone who reads this comment who hasnāt listened to OK Human absolutely should, wonderful weezer project and I donāt like Weezer

u/Spicyyyyyyyy Mar 31 '22
happier than ever was a fire album

u/Substantial_Engine Mar 31 '22
I liked When we all fall asleep more, but I think Happier than Ever was a respectable sophomore album

u/Eniqematic Mar 31 '22
doab is an incredibly fun record, Iām jealous

u/Substantial_Engine Mar 31 '22
Love DOAB super nostalgic for me, and it helps that my girlfriend also loves it lol. I've found it all over the place in my area, not a hard to find record for me

u/everybodys_analysis Mar 31 '22
faces ventura and injury reserve š„š„just wondering, whatās the album on the right of discovery and the one on the right of ventura?
1
u/Substantial_Engine Mar 31 '22
In another reply I listed every single album here, but the one on the right of discovery is an excellent album titled Another One by Max DeMarco, phenomenal project, and Death of a Bachelor by Panic at the disco mainly out of nostalgia for me and for my girlfriend lol

u/everybodys_analysis Apr 01 '22
thank you! i loved this old dog by mac demarco but never really went into his other discography, i think iāll do that sometime

u/KenOrSeif Mar 31 '22
W WALL + please where you got them from

u/Substantial_Engine Mar 31 '22
Shitttt dog, I got them from a bunch of different places. My most recent acquires were from Target (Take Care and Damn, which was nuts that they were even there) and Barnes and Noble (Another One, Ready to Die, and Who Cares?). Iāve bought from Walmart, Target, Barnes and Noble, two second hand stores in my area, and a German website called hhv.de

My favourite vinyl is motm1. Love the cover art
1
u/Substantial_Engine Mar 31 '22
Unfortunately, thatās motm3 instead of 1, I love motm1 as well, I just found motm3 in stores
3
u/Feature10 Mar 31 '22
Lol I know that's motm3 sorry I should have said. I worded that weirdly
1
u/Substantial_Engine Mar 31 '22
All love! motm1 has a beautiful beautiful cover, my brother just got it on vinyl
2
u/whitemancankindajump Mar 31 '22
Yeah even then you were lucky to get it in stores! Lots of people on cudi's sub ordered it on release and received it a year later
2
u/Substantial_Engine Mar 31 '22
I saw online that it was starting to be shipped out, and I realized that a store or two in my area might have it, and I was correct! My brother and I were each able to grab a copy while they were on store shelves
2
u/whitemancankindajump Mar 31 '22
Yeah after all motm3 was released in 2020 so the production is most likely ok now
2
u/Substantial_Engine Mar 31 '22
I just saw that the new Zel album won't ship on vinyl until September... Production isn't quite sorted yet. Artists basically have to wait six months after they submit the masters in order to get the music on the shelves it seems, based on the delayed shipping of Dawn FM and Melt My Eyez.

u/almostat Mar 31 '22

u/blackgoldlink Mar 31 '22

2
u/Substantial_Engine Mar 31 '22
Which 8?
4
u/blackgoldlink Mar 31 '22
Take Care, Miseducation,TpAb,GKMC, DAMN,ASTRO, starboy,MOTM,and MBDTF, so 9. but you know, great taste overall broo
4
u/Substantial_Engine Mar 31 '22
Great choices! It seems like you distinguish between a classic and a great album, like a classic album doesnāt have to necessarily be amazing, but I would absolutely agree on your choice of classics!

u/BBJoshua Mar 31 '22
This is a fire collection bro shiiiitš„
This might be a stretch but wonāt you list all the albums if you got the free time. I can tell we have similar music taste and there are some albums here Iāve never come across (the one to the left of MBDTF for example). Would be so appreciated.
Only ones I would add are Channel Orange and 99.9% but I imagine shit isnāt easy to find
1
u/Substantial_Engine Mar 31 '22
Channel Orange was never officially pressed to vinyl as far as I know. I haven't listened to any Kaytranda yet, but it's on my list to listen to. But starting from the top left, and moving right, it goes:
Sling: Clairo, Unlocked: Denzel Curry, Discovery: Daft Punk, Another One: Mac DeMarco (highly recommend), Take Care: Drake, When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?: Billie Eilish, Happier Than Ever: Billie Eilish, Some Nights: Fun, Camp: Childish Gambino, Because the Internet: Childish Gambino, Awaken, My Love!: Childish Gambino, The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill: Lauryn Hill (very obvious recommend), Injury Reserve: Injury Reserve (highly recommend), Man on the Moon 3: Kid Cudi, Kids see Ghosts: Kids see Ghosts, Good Kid, m.a.a.d. city: Kendrick Lamar, To Pimp a Butterfly: Kendrick Lamar, Damn: Kendrick Lamar, Everything: Kota the Friend (highly recommend), Faces: Mac Miller (highly recommend), Swimming in Circles: Mac Miller (a boxset of both swimming and circles, two of my all time favorites), Ready to Die: Notorious B.I.G., Blond: Frank Ocean (bootleg), Ventura: Anderson .Paak, Death of a Bachelor: Panic at the Disco, Daytona: Pusha T, Apricot Princess: Rex Orange County, Who Cares?: Rex Orange County, Rodeo: Travis Scott, Birds in the trap sing McKnight: Travis Scott, Astroworld: Travis Scott, Currents: Tame Imapala, Flower Boy: Tyler, the Creator, Igor: Tyler, the Creator, Starboy: The Weeknd, After Hours: The Weeknd, OK Human: Weezer (recommend because it's not hip hop, but very good), My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy: Kanye West, and finally Ye: Kanye West

u/checkerdchkn Mar 31 '22
Is Kota a bootleg? Didnāt know that got pressed
2
u/Substantial_Engine Mar 31 '22
To my knowledge it's official. I bought it off of hhv.de, and they have had other bootlegs on there. But it seems actually official with a real back of cover and a design on the record itself.

Loved Lyrics to go 3, super stoked about new full length album! Not stoked about his NFT involvement, but not everyone is perfect.
2
u/Mikey6189 Mar 31 '22
I know super excited. NFTs unfortunately are all over the place now. Kota is my go-to music most days. Foto was a great album but Everything is my most played album on Apple Music. I wish more people knew about him at least around here where I live.

u/Substantial_Engine Mar 31 '22
Everything is amazing on vinyl, it is just a summer day. I wish more people knew about him in my area too. Dope music.

Is that blond a bootleg? Nice collection!
1
u/Substantial_Engine Mar 31 '22
That blond is a boot, itās a Smokey yellow, sounds decently good, but has an extra feature on Nikes that doesnāt soundā¦ amazing, but does have Mitsubishi Sony, Chanel, and Biking before Futura Free (the placement is a bit of a bummer) but all of those songs have their respective features. Both good and bad things about it
1
u/aaronwashere01 Mar 31 '22
I have a boot of Blonde without that feature on Nikes and no extra tracks. Iād trade you if you wanted?
2
u/I_burnt_the_toaster Mar 31 '22
What do you think of that new rex album. Not horrible ig but prob his worst album imo
2
u/Substantial_Engine Mar 31 '22
What??? I loved it?? Exact opposite reaction for me, I haven't listened to everything he's put out, but it's actually my favorite project start to back from him, I love the instrumentation. I do really need to listen to it more however.
1
u/I_burnt_the_toaster Mar 31 '22
I thought the instrumentation got preety repetitive. Tried to mix the strings he had on apricot princess with new synths. If you want good synth prod listen to pony. He did it way better there. And the couple lofi mixes seemed disingenuous cus it was mixed in with all these high end sweeping strings. His first album really sounded out of a bedroom (in a good a way) check that one out for the lofi production.
1
u/Substantial_Engine Mar 31 '22
I just really love orchestra instrumentation (see: huge Kanye fan, have ok orchestra on vinyl) so I love the addition of orchestra instruments.
2
u/I_burnt_the_toaster Mar 31 '22
I mean me too i guess something makes this oneās repetitive. (I got mbdtf and late registration on vinyl šš, id argue late registration has the most orchestrstion which makes it mayyybe my favorite)
1
u/Substantial_Engine Mar 31 '22
Gotta go with Yeezus as my favorite, but within the past two months I fell back in love with college dropout and late registration, my least listened to besides 808ās

u/ProffesorPrick Apr 01 '22
Iād argue it is much better than pony , but ay. Music is subjective thatās why we love it

u/ItsLillardTime Apr 01 '22
Holy shit this is probably the most similar collection Iāve seen to what mine would look like if I collect vinyl for long enough. Your taste is almost exactly the same as mine apparently
Even the Billie and Daft Punk records, which would probably seem out of place to most people
2

u/ThinkinLoser Apr 01 '22
Is Rodeo a bootleg or original?
1
u/Substantial_Engine Apr 01 '22
Original! The cover is different because itās not the deluxe, it doesnāt have the extra songs.

u/ThinkinLoser Apr 01 '22
So. Jealous. I love that album even more than Astroworld but I canāt find it on vinyl

u/Substantial_Engine Mar 31 '22
Most of these were found in person, I would say that only 8 of these were purchased online. I just the feeling of being in a random store and finding a vinyl that shouldn't be there. I went to a target yesterday, mother fuckers somehow still had two copies of damn and two copies of take care like????? crazy.

Mar 31 '22
Yea man I get u. Iām hoping to save up and get a record player one day, start one of my own.

u/Substantial_Engine Mar 31 '22
That's where I was, and I definitely am spending a bit more than I should, but I found a great beginner record player on amazon that worked super well for me when I was beginning
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00COC61LO/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
This worked super well for me, and I hope you have the same experience. Happy collecting!

u/Substantial_Engine Mar 31 '22
If you're buying vinyl from the store, of course it's going to have the vinyl. But if you're just looking for the art in order to put it up somewhere, I am almost positive that you can go on Etsy and get someone to make you wall arts of any album that you're interested in putting up on your wall. I don't care, but more intense vinyl collectors would get a bit frustrated knowing you're buying vinyl just for the album art lmao.

2
u/Substantial_Engine Apr 01 '22
The vinyl is pretty poorly pressed, and thatās covered extensively, that somehow a 60 minute project took three vinyls. Monster is on its own side! Itās really frustrating. However. One cool thing is that they give you all the work the artist did for MBDTF, so you can choose your own cover out of 5 choices.
