"In Rainbows" DRM-free mp3s not exactly audiophile quality


That's "Bodysnatchers". Or maybe the whole album is just compressed to shit.

Used record stores in LA
I knew about Amoeba and Record Surplus. Apparently I need to check out Freakbeat and Atomic, and Fingerprints if I ever make it down to Long Beach.

Sounds like they accept about 75% of what they get sent, so that makes it ~200 CDs per 60 GB video iPod ... hmmm, how much does Amoeba pay per used CD I wonder?

dealnews - how to go broke saving money
Gadgets, media, etc. Almost what you need, a little earlier than you planned to get it, for a little bit less than you probably would have paid. Basically, irresistible.

TURNTABLE LAB LOS ANGELES
Before this opened LA didn't have a single decent record store with listening stations. So heeellllls yeah.

Submerge ::: Detroit Techno
Apparently a lot of the Underground Resistance stuff got repressed recently, but a reliable source says "avoid the dodgy electro records in the 30's of the UR catalogue.".

KOMPAKT-MP3
The whole back catalog. Everything.

I Love Music rough guide to...
Holy shit. The thermonuclear version of "five cds to introduce you to [60s bubblegum pop, new orleans brass bands, metal, rave, etc]".

update: It's up. Cower, humans.

ilm on us record stores

"L.A.: I prefer Aron's to Amoeba in many respects. It's less of a headache to shop at, the people seem to know more, and it's often much cheaper. Also, Sea Level in Echo Park is great. Headline on Melrose is good for obscure punk rock. R.I.P.: No Life."

"Also, Record Surplus on Pico Ave, which is great for cheap LPs (they only carry older stuff it seems) and reasonably priced CDs. Also, their 92 cent CD section can be a goldmine. Since the guys who run it seem to know popular music moreso than underground, you can find some steals in that section. Just picked up a copy of the Low and Dirty Three EP there for a buck."
