I want to be a record collecting LP junkie. I want to be Rob Gordon (John Cusack, High Fidelity)!
During the last 10 years of my life I have focused heavily on collecting music. Not just music from my generation, but all generations of music. I hunt through all types of media, everything from myspace pages to used LP bins at thrift shops to find the next album to my 70,000 song life soundtrack never ends.
The USB turntable is my latest musical collection tool. The turntable's amazingly transforms paralyzed LP records into mobile mp3s, capturing my imagination in the process.
With any format of music (except cassett tapes) at my will my mutating iTunes will have more fuel to grow. Garage sales, your parent's old record collection have become my kitchen cabinet and I'm always hungry.
I simply love the notion of giving life to old LPs like Dr. Frankenstein. Knowing that their messages, melodies and rhymes will live for decades inside my growing musical iTunes society.
Long live great music. Let it haunt my soul long after I die.
