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. 🧵

This is just a test.

A minimalist vinyl listening setup featuring a black Sony turntable playing a translucent blue vinyl record. Behind it, a wall-mounted "Now Spinning" display showcases Heroes by The Midnight in its protective sleeve. A glowing blue ambient lamp adds a cool atmosphere beside the turntable, while a stack of vintage Sony hi-fi components sits neatly below, completing the blend of modern and classic audio gear.

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

The result (and my heart is still broken)

A fresh black-and-grey realistic tattoo of Totoro, a ferret, on the inner forearm, sealed under a glossy aftercare wrap. He’s sitting upright and facing forward, with finely detailed fur shading, an alert expression, and a curled bushy tail. Sunlit sidewalk and a metal railing are visible in the background.

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

A black wood-grain FiiO TT11 turntable on a dark surface, playing a record with an orange label. An amber glow from the platter’s ambient lighting rims the edge of the disc. The tonearm and counterweight are visible at right. Behind it, a black stereo receiver sits on a dark media console, with vinyl records shelved on the left, against a plain grey wall.

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.

A group of five vinyl releases arranged on a bright red textured blanket between patterned cushions. Four records are displayed upright along the back: Greatest Hits on Earth by The 5th Dimension, the 12-inch single Cry by Godley & Creme with its distinctive filmstrip-style cover, Men and Women by Simply Red, and Rescue Me by Tom Jones. In the foreground, a vintage Columbia pressing of George Gershwin’s Porgy & Bess is laid flat with its liner notes spread open beneath it.

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 🔊

Front cover of the Seal box set lying on a red knit blanket. A white square sleeve with the artist name "SEAL" spelled in large reflective silver foil letters across the lower half. A full-length black-and-white photo of Seal stands within the lettering, legs apart in a sleeveless dark vest and leather trousers, one hand raised behind his head, his figure overlapping the "A." The glossy silver foil catches the light unevenly across the letters.

Open gatefold of a Seal vinyl box set lying on a red knit blanket. The left inner panel shows a black-and-white photograph of Seal from behind, shirtless with dreadlocks, arms outstretched holding two birds of prey, a bass guitar leaning in front of him. The center panel shows him facing the camera in a black leather outfit, one arm raised with a falcon perched on his gloved hand. To the right, a vinyl record in a white inner sleeve—label reading "SEAL, SIDE THREE: 7. Wild, 8. Show Me, 9. Violet"—slides out of a dark outer sleeve. Below sits an open booklet: a black-and-white contact sheet of studio portraits on the left page, and a text page headed "A Note From Trevor Horn" on the right (page 3).

Cream-colored back cover of the Seal deluxe box set on a red knit blanket, printed with the full track listing in bold black type. Disc 1: Seal (Remastered) — 9 tracks including The Beginning, Crazy, Killer, and Future Love Paradise. Disc 2: Rare — 11 tracks of acoustic, premix, and extended versions. Disc 3: Single Edits & Remixes — 13 tracks including William Orbit remixes of Killer and multiple Crazy mixes. Disc 4: Live at the Point, Dublin, Ireland, 12/16/91 — 12 previously unreleased tracks. Plus the remastered LP across three sides. Bottom edge shows Warner Records and Rhino logos, a 2022 reissue copyright line ("Made in Germany, R2 654317 / 603497843947"), and a barcode.

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

A black Sony turntable spins a vinyl record beneath a transparent dust cover on a light wood shelf, illuminated by deep blue ambient lighting. Behind it, a copy of the “Labyrinthe”album by French singer Guesch Patti is displayed upright with a “NOW SPINNING” sign below the cover. A glowing blue cylindrical lamp sits beside the turntable, creating a moody retro atmosphere focused on vinyl listening and 1980s aesthetics.

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.

A minimalist listening setup with a black Sony turntable playing a vinyl record on a light wood surface. Above it, a wall-mounted “Now Spinning” display holds Annie Lennox’s Diva album cover in a clear sleeve. A warm glowing lamp on the left adds soft ambient light, while the transparent dust cover of the turntable is raised, creating a clean, cozy hi-fi atmosphere.

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.

Vinyl records displayed on wooden stairs: Knights in White Satin by Giorgio Moroder at the top, the Miami Vice soundtrack on the right, a T. Rex album with a silhouetted figure on the left, and Invisible Touch by Genesis at the bottom.

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.

Three cassette tapes standing upright on a wooden surface. From left to right: a partially visible black TDK SA 90 blank cassette; an INXS “X” cassette with a cover showing the band members reaching forward against a dark blue background; and a Lee Aaron cassette titled “Bodyrock,” featuring a stylized purple-blue portrait of the singer in a leather jacket. The tapes are placed indoors under warm light, with a blurred background including audio equipment and a small lamp.

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.

This image shows the album “Behaviour” by Pet Shop Boys resting on what appears to be a record player. The album cover features a four-panel grid with artistic photographs: a figure in black holding floral arrangements, a close-up portrait of a person looking directly at the camera, a back view of a shaved head, and a rocking chair with scattered flowers or petals. The album title “Behaviour.” and artist name “PET SHOP BOYS” appear at the bottom of the white cover. A black turntable is visible on the right side of the image.

One of my favourite albums with an "evening" vibe.
