i wish i could get those vinyls too. hood is maybe my favorite techno artist. but it is geting hard buying records down here in Brasil. the price of the "12 here is unbeliaveble. its $42 Reais and the brazilian basic salary is $200 Reais per month. i mean you cant buy 5 records with the money. can u beliave it? with $42 Reais here you can eat in a good restaurant for seven nights, or buy your self an expensive clothe, or go out to expensive club tree times.
im just posting this for your curiosity. vinyl will soon desapeear here i think. me and my dj friends dont buy records no more. or we get one "12 per month. its really sad. i am being forced to give up geting records.. : / well thats it, take care you all. > I couldn't agree with you more Matt -he is a true master of the "Detroit > minimal sound"!
