1/8 Kavinsky was found dead at his Paris home on Tuesday, July 28, 2026. He was 50. Most people know exactly one of his tracks. This thread is about what that one track did to an entire genre — and who owes him their career. 🧵
Some housekeeping news: Vinyl Community has a new home. The feed now runs on my own server instead of a public feed builder. Nothing changes on your side — same feed, same spot in your pins, likes and saves untouched. A short thread on what's new 🧵
Well, Michael, Andy, and Michael, that wasn't very nice of you. But that was the last time—you won't be allowed back into our Vinyl Community.
❓A question for our Vinyl Community members: how do you feel about commercial vinyl-for-sale posts appearing in our feed? I can restrict accounts that use the feed primarily for selling, but should I? I’d really like to hear your thoughts.
Judging by the first version of the cover for his debut album, it seems Billy Idol wasn’t originally planning to be quite such a “bad boy.” #vinyl
FiiO TT11 — fully automatic turntable, with counterweight, anti-skate and a swappable cartridge, for $175. Spec sheet looks almost too good (W&F ≤0.2%). But how does it hold up in practice — does it really keep true pitch? Worth recommending to beginners? #vinyl
My oldest vinyl record is 75 years old. Original press of «Porgy & Bess» by George Gershwin on 3 LP, Columbia Masterworks, 1951, OSL-162
Yesterday’s haul from several vinyl record stores in Hamilton, Ontario.
This little guy is not with us anymore. Aug 23, 2021 - May 31, 2026, 7;55 PM. I will always remember you, Totoro.
Although I consider the ’90s not to have been the strongest musical decade, this album is a flawless timeless pop masterpiece. Thanks to my wife @arina.bsky.social for this wonderful gift! Now spinning 🔊
This is one of the greatest French albums ever made. It’s an incredibly powerful and sensual debut from a truly talented singer. Guesch Patti “Labyrinthe” 1988 original French pressing #vinyl #vinylcommunity #vinylcollection
An absolute masterclass in pop music. Not a single filler track. Still the best album released in 1992: Annie Lennox — Diva. And huge thanks to my wife @arina.bsky.social for such a meaningful and truly precious gift.
I think I've figured out what I'm going to get myself for my next birthday—just for fun :) TINYL Play Pro www.tinyl.co.jp/products/pla... $199.00 - Plug-and-play with built-in speakers - Audio-Technica AT-3600 cartridge - 2-way Bluetooth (TX/RX) - Adjustable tracking force - Semi-automatic
В нас так само, цього року вже всі втомилися від такої погоди. Наступні субота та неділя, коли вночі -1 °C — це вже 2 та 3 травня. Просто неможливо.
Took a trip to the Kitchener-Waterloo Collector Show today with my wife… and yeah, leaving empty-handed was never an option. Some great vinyl finds came home with us.
Today’s flea market run ended with me picking up two Bread albums on vinyl for my wife (she’s collecting their full discography), while my own nostalgic impulse steered me toward cassettes. I don’t have many, but I occasionally grab the ones I used to listen to in my youth.
Moved from AirPods 3 → AirPods 4 (non-Pro). Didn’t expect such a serious leap between two neighboring generations of the same product. They’re more anatomical, fit like they were molded for my ears. Sound is clearly better, with genuinely pleasant bass. And yeah — the ANC here is surprisingly good.
51. Grateful to my family for getting me gifts that spark joy, not things that are “practical.” The best presents feed the soul, not just fill a need.
In 1990, two albums neatly summed up the evolution of 80s electropop: Violator by Depeche Mode and Behaviour by Pet Shop Boys. Yesterday, my wife gave me one of them. I love — and deeply appreciate — spontaneous gifts.
