The only thing I like as much as collecting vinyl is giving it away to like minded music nerds. That is why the contest I have to announce today is an exciting one. If you are familiar with the Verve Remix albums that have been released over the past couple years, you will […]

Record Store Day is in the books, and what a day it was. I picked up way too much probably, and had a great time doing it. I will do my best to get some of the stuff I picked up into your hands as well, if you did not make it out […]

While we certainly champion alot of bands here on ENS, it is pretty rare that I champion what I consider to be a cause. Well, today is an exception as tomorrow is Record Store Day here in the US. You may notice it is called “Record Store Day”, not big box retailer day […]
