Surface Noise | Listening Party (Terra Firma)
Monday Jun 26, 2023
Monday Jun 26, 2023
Welcome back my friends to the show that sometimes ends. Trying something new this week for SURFACE NOISE. Fresh off the heels of listening to the new album from Nick Perri & The Underground Thieves - TERRA FIRMA - our team share some thoughts, observations, and other insights into this album, as well as plays some choice cuts from the 14 song, independent double LP release from this collective. With 3/4 of the panel new to this artist and his music, it was a fun way to get fresh perspective on this fresh release, and we hope you take time following the pod to give the album a listen on your preferred streaming platform of choice. There are even some music videos available on YouTube! As always, sincere thanks for giving our little program a listen here, and for giving TERRA FIRMA a spin (or stream) at your convenience. It's projects like this that help put the "community" into "vinyl community", and hopefully give eyes and ears to help discover this wildly talented artist to a larger audience.

Greetings Buddies! For this latest one-on-one on Vinyl Community Podcasts, I'm joined by Jim Kaplan - the founder, publisher, distributor, editor, deliverer (if that's a word) of Record Collector News. RCN has been in print since 2008 just celebrating it's 15th year in existence. Published 6x each year, RCN showcases articles, op-eds, and additional content on the hobby from a vast array of contributors, including some in the Vinyl Community from YouTube. Not only a great source of information, RCN has given many folks (myself included - full disclosure) an open invitation to write for the paper sharing distinct points-of-view into record collecting in the current era. Jim has some great stories not just on the origins of RCN, but how he started his connection and passion for music, and his own insight into record collecting today in the metro Los Angeles area. It's a conversation I was looking forward to a great deal, and hope you find it as insightful as I did. Thanks for your continued support here on the channel and Vinyl Community Podcasts!

Buddies! Excited, pumped, stoked...I haven't been able to find the right words to express how thrilled I am to share this conversation with you! Dropping today, June 16th, TERRA FIRMA is the new double LP album (yes, double) from Nick Perri & The Underground Thieves. This is the 2nd album for this collective, and I was fortunate to spend some time talking to Nick about the new album, his fascinating career in the music industry (imagine opening for the likes of Van Halen, Aerosmith, and Motley Crue during the beginnings of your career - fresh into your 20's!), and his twists and turns since then that have led us to this incredible album: TERRA FIRMA. What is it like to create at every possible step of a project - writing the music, organizing the production, overseeing the mastering, promoting the project, then touring on it (I'm tired just writing that!). Plus, Nick is super passionate about vinyl and it was a MUST that this album (and the preceding title SUN VIA) came out on the format. I loved talking the hobby with him and you'll see him light up as we nerd out talking records and old media. I mean, it couldn't be a Vinyl Community Podcasts show with records, could it? Stay tuned to the channel and VINYL COMMUNITY PODCASTS for news on a listening party on 6/22/23 at 8pm CST on the SURFACE NOISE livestream where we'll be talking about the songs, the album, and giving away records - for real! But for now, check out the album yourself via the links below:

Against the advice of our legal team, we are back with another episode of Surface Noise. For this 'sode, Concert Buddie is joined by the usual cast of characters including Jason Roxas, Arnaldo (Fidelios_Frequency), David (Safe & Sound Texas Audio Excursion) and Jose Moreno Rahn. We deep dive into advice: namely, what is the best pieces of advice (1) you've received from someone else during your collecting (mis)adventures, (2) the best piece of advice you've shared yourself with someone else, (3) if you had one piece of advice to share immediately with someone new to collecting vinyl records, what would that be, and finally (4) if you had a time machine (as we all do), and could go back in time to give the younger version of your collecting self a piece of advice, what would that be? As always, sincere thanks for your support on this project! We couldn't and wouldn't do it without you, Buddies!
