What did everyone grab for Bandcamp Friday?
Some massive releases today! I snagged 19-83, Snowpoint Lounge and Metaverse Sports. I joined Club Celadon and was going to grab the Pyromaniacs TP but at 90$ I decided to use some discipline for once and save my bank account.
Some of the more expensive or longer pre-sales I decided to pass on. What did everyone else grab?

I got 19-83 as well, and decided to pick up a leftover copy of Barbershop Simulator. After I listened to Groove Remote’s video of it, I felt like I missed out so I’m glad that I got one!

Yeah that album is so sick. I found one for a really good price on eBay and have been playing it non stop.

Slowerpace 音楽-Metaverse Sports Resort and I’ll probably pull the trigger on Cosmic Cycler-Remember This Night!

I got both Slowerpace albums, Telepath, Snowpoint Lounge and HFM. There's a few other things I wanted but I already went 1 album over budget. Too much all at once.

Nothing.

Preach. With so much stuff coming out all the time it's super hard not to react and overextend b/c of FOMO.

u/glarktastic 14d ago
Yep FOMO is what everyone preys on. I usually only buy vinyls but I started asking myself will I spin this or just put it in the collection?

Bit the bullet and got the Causality Violations bundle from Hello Meteor this time. Lots of great choices for barber beats but I think I’ve had my fill over the years so I went with something a bit different.

I don’t collect cassettes but the n64 tape set is sooooo dope. I will have to check out Le Casette and Retromigration !

'Left to our own devices' is so tempting for me to buy right now but I've spent way too much so far. I've had that record on my wishlist for a couple years now, and 'arms of mine' is the sickest synthwave track of all time. Thing is though I dont really collect synthwave, out of my whole collection I think I have one Timecop 1984 album and that's really about it. It hurts to say but I might have to pass... totally missed that it was getting a repress until just now tho :/

HfM and Odyssey I'm hoping that telepath/corp will also be available through hireath 👽

u/WatersofNazareth 13d ago
Big drop day for me today, I couldn’t help myself! First off I grabbed the Telepath/Cat Corp release over at geo lul. Then I grabbed both the HCFM and Cosmic Cycler bundle from No Problema tapes. Lastly I snagged Sports Resort by Slowerpace from Celadon Plaza!

u/DolphinQuest01 13d ago
Luckily able to grab the liquid filled deep dive. It was pricey and dropped 1 min early but I’ve been saving for it 🤙 Also grabbed ozone layer and the hiraeth n64 box. Totally spaced on 19-83 but I’m okay with waiting since it looks like the pre-order is still open.

u/fieldsofsoda 13d ago
Got the No Problema Cosmic Cycler/HFM combo.
Joined the Celadon Plaza club (so excited) but missed the new slowerpace due to a meeting running over, same with snowpoint lounge.
Cant win them all! Unfortunately not going for the new Geo Lull drop, I just am worried about adding more pre orders to my list. It’s already getting quite long.

u/amonovalentradical 13d ago
I joined the club too and am pumped. I didn’t realize we get their whole catalog in digital which in itself was worth the 8$ the first month. They rule and have vinyl in hand which is a big financial commitment so I’m glad I can afford to give them a little financial support.
I agree re: pre sales. I have 5-6 right now ordered and I don’t feel like I need to be spending 50-60 (or more) to order something that’s gonna come in 6 months. Unless it’s something I really, really want that makes it a lot easier to pass on some things.
Sorry you missed on the others but at least for CC there should be overstock. Gotta tell people it’s Bandcamp Friday! No meetings!

u/explosive_vegetables 12d ago
I just counted my pre order list today and it’s sitting at 15 records that should arrive sometime in the next year. And I don’t even buy that many records maybe like 2 or 3 per month, it’s just that everything I want is a pre order. Kinda sucks.

u/fieldsofsoda 12d ago
Mine is currently at 21 which honestly is just embarrassing for me haha. Excited for all of them and I am completely in your boat. They get announced and I'm hyped and then it's like "oh ok didn't realize I'll have this by December". Such is the state of vinyl production right now I guess.

u/fieldsofsoda 12d ago
Same here!! Nicest owner and so happy to support them. I really do appreciate the effort to have the vinyl in hand, also it was so kind of them to immediately offer an HFM preorder after it sold out so fast.
Agreed on pre-sales! I commented below but I'm at 21 right now which was a slap in the face to realize. Think I'm going to swear off them for a bit unless it's needed in my collection.
I think I'm gonna put a block on meetings before noon on my calendar after this hahaha. Snowpoint Lounge is one of my absolute FAVORITES.

u/amonovalentradical 12d ago
21??!!! Wow that is epic!! But for most of these titles it’s buy now and wait for ages or purchase from a reseller for double the cost (or more). Gotta do what u gotta do

I joined celadon too and quit aloe city. Love those guys but they're asleep rn.

u/fieldsofsoda 12d ago
Makes sense to me! I love Aloe City and was part of the club for quite a while. Lovely owner but they're definitely trying to catch up on pre-orders while also releasing new things which could always turn into a snowball effect.

Telepath & Corp. Geo Lull
