thomaskm1 Posted August 31 Report Share Posted August 31 8-10 thousand, anyone interested in buying some. I've been getting progressive shit since 95, I have no room for it in my apartment, so good old mom lets most of them reside in the basement. parish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ILL HOUSE YOU Posted August 31 Report Share Posted August 31 50 tracks every 2 days? really...I know the the top DJ in the world and he gets around 10 records per day...And your talking about 25 records per day and...40,000 song collection, umm...right ok...I have probably close to 10K by now...Frankie I'm assuming you have all 40,000 Songs catalogued? and You've counted them all?Or just an estimate?

back2basics Posted August 31 Report Share Posted August 31 Just wanted to say, nice one to everybody buying vinyl...ILL HOUSE YOU, are you talking about DT there? I was reading on the cover of back to mine that he has over 40,000 i love it. Are you on any good mailing lists? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ILL HOUSE YOU Posted August 31 Report Share Posted August 31 Just thinking about it, mp3 technology has only really been around for the last 2 years...that means you'd have to have gotten 10,000 songs per year...that's 27 tracks per day for 2 years...Thats a lot of fucking records, keep it up man, you must be like the guru of all genres of music...------------------ "Music is my mistress, and she plays second fiddle to no one."

ILL HOUSE YOU Posted August 31 Report Share Posted August 31 Im talking about MP3 Technology hitting the mainstream and it was only recently refined over the last 2-3 years...the quality of mpeg since 1987 has not been great, its been revised which is it's current state...4-5 years ago people were hardly using mpg for audio, it's like beta video, used on a limited scale...by the way how old are you only curious that's all...and still 40,000 songs is a lot of music, i find it hard to believe you get 25 tracks per day as you stated...Music in electronica or mainstream is just not produced at that rate...what are you catching up since the early 1940's?

MissDiva Posted August 31 Report Share Posted August 31 DT has the most amazing in house studio. he built these crates right into the wall....the entire thing is just wallpapered with stuff....its so cozy too. seein that is what pushed me to start after 7 yrs of saying I was going to but procrastinating!Lol that being said im only about to break 200, (since January) Remember the first piece of vinyl u got? mine was GIVE ME LUV /Alcatraz and DROP A HOUSE /urban discharge. theres a cute little store across the st from my apartment, disco rama, where if u have an hour u can always find some good old progressive tracks.

I get tons of unsigned shit, promo shit, independent shit, rap, rock,classical, house, trance,etc....WHY is 40,000 songs/tracks so hard for you to grasp??? I don't get it ... Oh and I'm 22, but what does that have to do with anything?How old are you?------------------ Put some pep in your step Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

russ reign Posted August 31 Report Share Posted August 31 Ok - now we all know how many records we all have, but how many do we actually bring to gigs....For me its 100 (2 Technics bags) for close to home gigsOn the road or air travel its just 50 (1 Bag)And Ive always got my trusty CD book with all the jamz.... I like to travel light, but Ive seen some of my friends take like 5 or 6 record cases! ------------------"Losers try. Winners go home and fuck the prom queen."
