I think every collector knows this problem: the collection no longer fits in the space originally meant for it. So today, it’s time to reorganize. How do you sort your collection? My approach is genre first, then alphabetical. #vinyl #vinylcollection #vinylcommunity #recordcollection #musicsky
#NowSpinning The Roots - Come alive too: DYWM 30 live at Blue Note NYC. It’s #HipHopSaturday again, and today this brilliant live album makes it even sweeter. #vinyl #vinylcollection #vinylcommunity #recordcollection #musicsky
Just found this old photo of my daughter and the Tocotronic – Nie wieder Krieg (2022). I’m listening to something else right now, but… #vinyl #vinylcollection #vinylcommunity #recordcollection #musicsky
#NowSpinning Jazzanova – In Between (2002). A debut album blending breakbeat, hip-hop, soul, and jazz that has aged remarkably well. Not a club record, more one for the living room, and one I always enjoy returning to. #vinyl #vinylcollection #vinylcommunity #recordcollection #musicsky
#NowSpinning Nicola Di Bari – Un altro Sud (1973). The weather is cold and miserable, perfect for a warm, melodic bosa nova interpretations shaped by Mediterranean influences, gentle arrangements, and a reflective sense of place. #vinyl #vinylcollection #vinylcommunity #recordcollection #musicsky
#NowSpinning Gravediggaz – 6 Feet Deep (1994). #HipHopSaturday again already, time flies. Today: horrorcore at its best. I first discovered this album through the Demon Knight movie. The genre definitely fits. #vinyl #vinylcollection #vinylcommunity #recordcollection #musicsky
#NowSpinning AnnenMayKantereit – Alles nix Konkretes (2016). Kicking off the weekend with a random pick, one of the most distinctive voices in Germany, with songs about everyday doubts, relationships, and growing up. my opinion. #vinyl #vinylcollection #vinylcommunity #recordcollection #musicsky
#NowSpinning Ibrahim Maalouf – Capacity to Love (2022). A mix of jazz, Latin, and folk with modern pop and hip-hop results in 15 amazing songs. The perfect start to #VinylFriday. #vinyl #vinylcollection #vinylcommunity #recordcollection #musicsky
#NowSpinning Danger Mouse & Jemini – Born Again (2023). Recorded years earlier and finally released in 2023 — the best hip-hop album from 2003 you’d never heard. A perfect fit for #HipHopSaturday. #vinyl #vinylcollection #vinylcommunity #recordcollection #musicsky
#NowSpinning Kölsch – 1977 (2013). The house is getting quiet, time to put on the headphones and listen to the danish DJs debut a melodic electronic album built on steady rhythms and warm synths. #vinyl #vinylcollection #vinylcommunity #recordcollection #musicsky
#NowSpinning Theo Parrish – DJ-Kicks: Detroit Forward (2022). My DJ-Kicks journey continues today with a wide-ranging mix rooted in Detroit, moving through house, hiphop, jazz, soul and funk with warmth and a strong sense of flow. #vinyl #vinylcollection #vinylcommunity #recordcollection #musicsky
#NowSpinning The Notwist – Vertigo Days – Live from Alien Research Center (2023). Work and a concerts kept me away from spinning vinyl, but not today. A focused live reworking with warm electronics, loose rhythms and immersive flow. #vinyl #vinylcollection #vinylcommunity #recordcollection #musicsky
#NowSpinning Curtis Harding – Face Your Fear (2017). For me, there’s only one Curtis in soul. Maybe this Curtis was even named after him. Either way, his warm grooves and vintage influences sounds classic with an fresh approach. #vinyl #vinylcollection #vinylcommunity #recordcollection #musicsky
#NowSpinning Killah Priest – Heavy Mental (1998). Finally #HipHopSaturday again, this time with the 2026 reissue of a classic from the Wu-Tang Clan universe. An album that rewards close listening. #vinyl #vinylcollection #vinylcommunity #recordcollection #musicsky
#NowSpinning Misty in Roots – Live at the Counter Eurovision 79 (1979). Deep reggae grooves, strong vocal harmonies, and a powerful live energy. Perfect as the soundtrack to the start of a warm summer evening. 😅 #vinyl #vinylcollection #vinylcommunity #recordcollection #musicsky

#NowSpinning Martial Solal – Locomotion (1974) First time on the turntable, and I have no idea what to expect. A cover buy — all I know is that he’s a French jazz pianist. "Schau ma mal" #vinyl #vinylcollection #vinylcommunity #recordcollection #musicsky
#NowSpinning Tangerine Dream – Force Majeure (1979). An atmospheric electronic album built on long instrumental passages. Picked it up for €3 in well-worn condition, but after a quick clean, you’d never know its age. #vinyl #vinylcollection #vinylcommunity #recordcollection #musicsky
#NowSpinning Radiohead – The Bends (1995). A confident second album built on strong melodies, clear guitar lines, and a more personal, expansive sound. Sometimes it just has to be Radiohead. #vinyl #vinylcollection #vinylcommunity #recordcollection #musicsky

#NowSpinning Roberta Flack – Chapter Two (1970). The best thing about coming home after a vacation is taking off the dust cover and putting on the first record. A warm, understated album with a calm, soulful atmosphere. #vinyl #vinylcollection #vinylcommunity #recordcollection #musicsky
