Today's digs

Some old record collector was selling his stash. 14 bucks spent, got 50 ish records, including 3 library music records (Conroy, Omnimusic and KPM records)
Here's pics.

You definitely scored there. Looks like some ill stuff.
How did you hook up that deal?

[hseiken]

The guy was actually trying to dump 700 records on me for 75 bucks. He just wanted space I guess. It was craigslist guy. Apparently he'll also be at the San Diego Record Show this month too cause he gave me a flyer to go.

Nice score man, got that Kitaro LP from the first pic. Been meaning to sample him for ages, he's got some good stuff out.

Never heard of Omnimusic before, what was on that one? Never had much luck with Conroy's library LPs (rich in cheese). Which KPM did you score? For those three alone you'd picked up a bargain. Over here KPM's rarely go for less than AUS$40 (maybe US$35)! Props for choosing the sound effects record too.

The OMNIMUSIC is OM109. Side one is "The Magic Flute" which is 8 short tracks of different styles with a lead flute, side 2 is "Blue Valley Junction", listed as 'Rural Country Atmosphere', 7 tracks I guess trying to sound 'country'. The flute side's dope.

For the Conroy record i picked up, I already used it. It's nothing but solo flutes and woodwinds, perfect for one note or a small passage to layer on other stuff. But I'll beware of others.

The KPM I picked up is "Fresh and Crazy". It's pretty much super 80's sounding. Big snares, DX7 basslines n shit. Dunno how much use I'll get out of it, really. I just saw the KPM logo and remembered the vinyl rips I downloaded being pretty useful. Info on this one: "All titles composed by Andy Clark and John Devereaux". Think Jan Hammer but KPM'd I guess is the best way to describe most of the stuff on it.

I keep seeing those Synergy records everywhere! are they just synth-heavy records? nice finds though, looks like you'll be set for a while

[hseiken]

Yeah, Synergy is just atmospheric synths and stuff. Some even sound dope at 45RPM. I want to sample the one at got at 45RPM on one track cause it sounds like wikkid rhythmic at that speed, but still slow...at normal speed, just doesn't have that same feel.

I don't think I could've turned down the 75 dollar deal, props to you for being discerning and not bringing a ton of garbage home.

Looks like a nice haul mate. Good looking out.
