I am absolutely thrilled with this lot but positively jubilant about the Kraftwerk maxi!

 

And they have a synthpop section for singles! Pure heaven! Actually found a grail of mine…

 

Lucky find, F13 part 4, my favorite part btw, on a double gatefold LP pressed in 45 RPM.

”Free speech” in action!

The most expensive of the bunch was Alma Cogan, everyone. Alma Cogan is the correct answer.

As awesome as Ghostbusters is, its the wrong answer. 😁

 

I bought a bunch of used singles. Guess which one was most expensive…?

This arrived yesterday in both vinyl and cd form. Norways best rock band delivers on their 7th album, it’s a contender for album of the year for me.

 

And yes, it plays at 33rpm, weirdly. The songs are You’ll be there for me / When you’re gone.

 

Highly anticipated! Look absolutely stunning!

 

So heres a bunch of synthpop singles I bought cheaply for you to gawk at! Do your worst!

Just new stuff this time. They had a sale, get 3 for a fixed price. And these looked like fun: Carpenter Brut / Leather Terror - synthwave, moody and cinematic. Cabaret Voltaire / The covenant, the sword and the arm of the lord - I’ve known of this group but never really listened to them, time to change that! And finally Warsaw/ this is early, early Joy Division stuff and just really great.

The most interesting to me was Swans cover of Love will tear us apart. Soothing!

God I live singles! 🤩

 

Kite 1 and 4 (swedish synthpop), the new remastered Opus Dei from Laibach, and an original maxi of Life is life. Sepulchre inc. was a short-lived (this is their only release) swedish Skinny Puppy-sound a like. All in all a good catch!

 

Found this used but still not what I would call cheap. Another great album anyway!

Very nice! I already love Mlem so I can’t wait to try out the next generation!

Well, no. You need to subscribe separately to streaming services. And yes, I was sceptical before I tried it. There is nothing else like it, if you want to take control over your digital music library Roon is the best way.

If you take the free trial you’ll see why there’s nothing else like it today. Its next level. Plex works fine too ofc. But its nowhere near as polished.

People will moan and groan because paid software and not opensource but there is nothing even close to Roon for doing this. https://roon.app/en/

OP here. Thanks for all your input! It’s really an embarrasment of riches which will take me some time to navigate. But thats part of the fun, right? Again, thanks everyone.

I hope its as good as the first one, I loved that.

PA-220 fw for internet access. An old workhorse, Synology DS1812+, for filesharing. A mac mini with Ubuntu running Plex and Roon also hosting Dashy in docker. A Hwg-ste to measure temp in my cabinet. I host a RIPE probe. An RPI4 running Zabbix. My next project is moving from PA-220 to something in the 400 series (probably 415) so I can upgrade to newer PANOS.
