日本の45's

(My apartment, Akama, Japan, August 2006)

So, while I was in Japan I bought heaps of records, in particular I bought alot of reggae/dancehall 45's, what i didnt realise until I started thinking about this mix was how many other kinds of 45's i bought there too. So I decided to make this mix with (almost) all of the "other" 45s's I bought (reggae mix to come!!). It ended up pretty random (and even a little emo towards the end) and some of the mixing is a bit dodgy but arrr whatever, at least now I can listen to these 45's on the tape player of my "new" 1989 Honda Civic, hehehe. So anyways, here you are, you can download(!!) it by clicking on this link and then clicking where it says "download original" yay!

ps. in case you were wondering, 45's are those little small "cute" records AKA 7"s, yeup....

First Post/Holy Shit!!!!

So I'm actually still in Japan but I figured this is more appropriate for this blog than my other one cos I figure this can be my blog (man i suck so much!!!) when I get back to NZ cos my other one is called "Mast in Japan" and I clearly wont be in Japan anymore....

Anyways i just wanted to say, I just added to my my spreadsheet of records in NZ (yes I am THAT geeky, wait it gets geekier) my records i bought in japan, and being the spreasheet master i am I made it so it calculated how much my records are worth and it broke the $10,000 mark!!!! holy fucking shit!!!! This list doesnt even take into account all my old 70s 80s records which are probably worth about $7.14 anyways. Dang, I could buy a REAL NICE car for that much money..........

But oh well I got heaps of awesome records instead so haha shame!
