My favorite track not available on streaming or YouTube

I would upload this whole Sense Boardwear CD collection to YouTube if I knew how any of that worked, so the tracks don’t get lost. They are not anywhere I can find and its 6 vol. of bad ass old school Cali Reggae… Chaper 11, Bredrin Daddies, all that.

Fun fact, the vol 2 CD has the first ever Dirty Heads cut with HB on physical media.

I really want to track down some “No Needz” CDs but the one guy I found on Discogs with some won’t sell them.

The track pictured is my favorite track out of all 6 CDs.

Any of you all have tracks like this? if so what?

Who the cap fit - Bob Marley (LYRICS/LETRA) (Reggae)

CD Ritual

To be clear, I have about 750 CDs and 200 records.

I am so sick of vinyl snobs talking about the “ritual” of vinyl, like CDs don’t have one. I am a 90’s kid and popping a CD in an actual CD player is extremely nostalgic for me. Brings me back to a time I could tell you what track #’s I liked from a given album without knowing the track name. The clickity clack, opening the damn things new, CD trays, track numbers, pausing, skipping, replaying a track immediately and all that…

I know tons of people digitize CDs never to touch the CD again. I had a PLEX server with all my rips, but went back to streaming due to time and convenience and Spotify serving up lossless, plus the expense and time of self hosting is no joke.

Yet, I still buy CDs because I love the ritual of physically playing them, zero streaming compression even with “lossless“ sources. No internet connection or tiny glowing doomscrolling machines required.

i can’t count the number of times I started a record thinking I had time to finish or wouldn’t be interrupted for a few minutes, and then bam, life happens.

Vinyl is a pain in the ass, and I’m tired of the narrative of Vinyl having “the ritual” and CDs being pointless with streaming and renting music, with no “ritual”. In my opinion, the CD ritual > user experience than the vinyl ritual.

Killing Joke - …Killing Joke

This is one record I really had to have. 1980 release date. As NIN, Maynard, Industrial fan, this post punk album literally lays the foundation for bands like Ministry and the like and is 100% analog which is insane.

i don’t know how the hell I just discovered the album at 44yo, but the second I heard it, it was an old friend… so I had to track down a nice affordable old analog copy, which turned into the first Japanese press.

This album is THE root to so much that followed in the 90s and onward.

Fayuca - White Lies (Live Music) | Sugarshack Sessions

This guy has some absolutely sick ska/punk/reggae albums around 2008. Releasing new stuff that is far more studio and soft.

Love this album and album art

This is one of my favorites. Doesn't get much better than darker cuts of Don Carlos and Culture.
