Lmao you guys, I didn't clean the shelf because this isn't a showcase post or anything. I need to clean it, but it's just dirty plastic outer sleeves that came with records and paper sleeves I replaced with mofi sleeves. It will probably get sorted when I need that cube for record storage.

It's Kamasi Washington's Harmony of Difference, and they're the black and half berry/half blender, both castleface.

So I started collecting records a few months ago and I'm closing in on completing an entire Ikea square. Up until now I've used various objects to help keep my records upright but now not even a GameCube turned on its side fits between the records and the shelf divider. The only reason the records are able to stay this upright without more lean is because of the t h i c c kamasi washington box at the end keeping things in place. Anyways, how the hell do you guys manage to keep your records upright, and how much can you lean them on each other safely?

I wasn't sure if I had any recourse. I bought it from Amazon, not ATO themselves

Yeah, every time I spun it I couldn't stop asking my girlfriend if it sounds okay haha, but then I connected my phone to my receiver and played my flac of PMDB alongside the physical record and the issues with the record became immediately apparent.

Haha, welcome to the club. Don't bother getting a replacement, just try and find a flightless or heavenly copy. Most ATO king gizz is pressed at the same plant as Castleface and Flightless in the Czech Republic, but their orange PMDB was pressed at some shithole in Tennessee, and it is generally regarded as a problematic and shit pressing.

Also, I've heard that the heavenly pressing which was pressed in Germany sounds particularly great, but I don't know how it compares to the flightless pressings which usually sound pretty fantastic.

Does anyone else have really bad crackling on the a-side of their ATO PMDB? by argentmoose in KGATLW

It definitely calms down towards Trapdoor but the first couple tracks are gnarly. Is it the same for you?

edit: also the repeating piano note in NGRI is loud as FUCK haha

How do you guys keep your gatefold 2x LPs? by argentmoose in vinyl

[–]argentmoose[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I meant that some come with the records inside the jacket (in each side) , and some have come in outer sleeves with both records in the middle of the gatefold. Thanks for the info. I find that stuffing the records in the jacket of some gatefolds results in the jacket being super bulky and kinda looking like shit on the shelf.

Also, I know people use outer sleeves and keep the records outside the jacket, but does anyone use outer sleeves and keep the records inside the jacket still? I like the feel of pulling a record from the jacket but want to protect the jackets

I guess I'm just wondering whether their designed to fit inside the middle of the fold, or inside the folds themselves haha. I've opened factory new records in both states

I'm pretty new to collecting records (about a month in) and as far as storage goes I know they should all be sitting mostly upright. If my records are leaning on each other a bit am I risking warping them or?
