Hey besties — in this video I finally do the thing I swear I do “every couple of months”: I go through my entire vinyl collection because it’s growing at a rate I literally cannot keep up with. I’m a little over 300 records right now and I’m out of space, so I’m decluttering with actual rules: if I don’t listen to it anymore, if I straight up don’t like it, or if I haven’t listened and genuinely don’t plan to anytime soon… it’s on the chopping block. I’m also very sentimental about inanimate objects (yes, records count), so I had to be kind of strict with myself. My goal was to make enough room for all my Kiss All the Time Disco occasionally variants (because obviously), plus Record Store Day is coming up and I need space desperately. I pull anything I’m even slightly considering, then I make final decisions — and somehow I end up getting rid of 21 records, which is way more than I expected. I walk you through each one and why it’s leaving, from impulse Record Store Day buys to gorgeous pressings I just never reach for. And then we talk setup: I upgraded to the Victrola Wave turntable with Victrola Tempo speakers. I’ve been using it for a few weeks and I’m really enjoying the more manual experience, but I do have one annoying issue with the speakers cutting out when songs get too quiet (I noticed it on Harry’s album).
