Saying that though, the amount of s**t I used to buy on vinyl back in the day…

Once you’ve spent that much on equipment - £1200 doesn’t seem anything like as much to get a track out!/PPSo it’s all relative - nowadays, you can make a good quality track that you might consider releasing without spending any money whatsoever (if you just illegally download Ableton, Logic or Reason etc). If you have spent absolutely nothing to date on producing and getting a track done - then relatively, £1200 seems like an awful lot more money to spend on releasing a track than it did in the old days!
And i have to agree with A class=SmlBoldLinks id=_ctl2_ctlTopic_ctlPanelBar_ctlTopicsRepeater__ctl5_smAuthorName #111;nmouseover=“#119;indow.status = #119;indow.location;return true;” title=“View PINKDINO’S Profile…” #111;nmouseout=“#119;indow.status=‘’;return true;” href="void(‘’);"PINKDINO/Anbsp;as well - i heard some of the most awful crap on vinyl in the old days!/PPSo people still released awful music on vinyl, even when it cost alot of money!
