This is my featured vinyl for this week on my blog, A.D.R.E.W. (A Different Record Every Week) link below...
https://decsloan.wixsite.com/adrew/post/the-universe-smiles-upon-you
The concept is simple - to share a new record from my vinyl collection every week along with a short review including, my favourite track, a suggested listening environment, info on the pressing I own and further related recommendations. My aim is to get more people listening to albums again, the way they were intended to be played. -

My copy was quiet and noise free, new and fresh out of the shrink, for what it's worth. No noisiness to be had here to my ears.
-
best sounding Khruangbin studio record they've released IMO. Clear, tight, gorgeous sound.
-
Mine does have a bit of a noise-floor which you can hear between tracks, but I don't mind - all in all a great sounding record which gives me lots of joy 🙂 -
Edited 2 years agoIncredible sound!! Specially the drums, so vivid! It feels like "DJ" is playing right beside me. However, mine has a little background noise from the pressing (just) on the A side, but you can only notice it between tracks.
-
Is this "locked" track a thing or is it an excuse for a bad pressing, you cant have a hidden track on vinyl, thats just silly -
I didn’t get that “hidden” track thing since it is pretty annoying to stand up, raise the tonearm, aim ideally to the beginning of the track and etc.
Pressing kinda cool, nothing bad to say about it.
Overall, the album isn’t great, but sounds pretty good for me. Strong 4 Con Todo El Mundo of 5. -
Does anyone else’s copy make a popping sound as it goes into the locked groove? I’ve had 2 copies that do it.
