Little late on this, but yeah, I got mine about a week ago.

Help:
Can anyone recommend me good soundtracks that also come with some amazing artwork?
I was blown away by the SOR stuff by Data Discs. More of that please up on the wall!

Not a vinyl record or game soundtrack, but had to jump in on this awesome genesis music cart project! Check it!

Black Screen Records announced an Earthworm Jim Anthology.
The fucking title theme from the second game is ingrained in my brain for some reason. I don't know if I need that on vinyl though.legit the only EWJ theme I can even remember is just Moonlight Sonata from the villi level, lol
I'd grab that EWJ vinyl if the creator wasn't a garbage human. Oh well.
maaaaaan you know what I really freakin hate??
Let me tell you what I hate:
Arizona.
it is the worst state ever! It's so hot; it's way too spread out for its own good, like in Phoenix it takes at least 20 minutes to drive from any one point to another, and that is without traffic!!
everybody there can afford not only a house, but damn beautiful houses too! like seriously!
it's the worst place ever!
Also, I found this randomly in the wild at one of their used record stores:
I take back any bad thing I have ever said about Arizona.
it is the greatest state ever, and I cannot wait to go back and visit!
Borrowed a friend's Data Discs Streets of Rage to listen to, so great! I can see myself investing in Yuzo Koshiro's work. Loved the segments on him in Diggin' in the Carts too.
But slightly OT question here for VinylGAF from a newbie: I just got started on vinyl and picked up what seemed to be a good starter turntable from a reliable brand (it's the Audio Technica AT-LP60) for a price that I can justify as a first purchase (£99).
I've listened to it this past few days and the music sounds great, including albums I'm familiar with so I'd know if it was sounding bad. But then when I started googling for "new vinyl collector 101" type stuff I came across a list of turntables to avoid on Reddit and it included mine. But the list of reasons was this insanely detailed stuff about counterweights and cartridges that not only did I not understand but I truly don't have time to get involved so deeply. I'm hoping this was just truly obsessive audiophile stuff for heavy users who listen all day every day that I don't need to worry about just yet for a "my first player" type of thing. I just want to spin a disc of an evening a few nights a week to relax, and maybe more at the weekend while I'm home in the daytime.
Should I return this and get the one they recommend (AT-LP120 which is over twice the price) or not worry about it if it seems to sound good to me? I'm tending towards the latter unless you guys think this is truly something not worth keeping because e.g. it would end up damaging my records and such over the medium to long term.
I really feel like getting the Sonic Mania release now.
It's sold out
Even the non-limited variants?It's sold out
Hope this helps and sort of makes sense

Honestly, I'd only ever want the soundtrack to the first game. The Genesis version. That's the only one I think that TT didn't work on, so I'm gonna assume it's not on that release.Black Screen Records announced an Earthworm Jim Anthology.
If you are planning to play $30+ video game releases (or just new records in general) then it really is advisible to drop the extra money and get a lp120 or an uturn orbit. Everything rpbtz said is true and I'll add that the lp60's build quality issues can also cause heavier (180 grams or more) records to skip while playing. It's a fairly well documented issue online so it's likely you'll eventually run into it. There's no easy fix for the problem so it happening to even a few records it can sour your experience of the medium.
Sadly there's no good super cheap entry level options to play records. To get a competent player you are looking at around $200 and they're no where near what people would consider audiophile but for someone who just wants a nice setup to enter in the hobby you can't go wrong with either.
Thanks for the additional info. I just ordered the LP120 and arranged the return of the LP60. Fortunately given it's Amazon they are pretty much no-quibble if you say you weren't happy with the item performance, and they're even getting it picked up, so it worked out nicely as a learning experience. I just wish I'd done the research properly first but oh well!
I was expecting someone to be the first to post this comment. While you are entitled to choose not to support this release due TenNapel's worldviews, it should be noted that Black Screen has already licensed the soundtrack. If any of that money is going to TenNapel, it has already gone to him. Also the number one priority of this release should be the celebration of the work of Tommy Tallarico on the soundtrack of the game.

I'm actually in the exact boat as sugarless (except I got a Crosley instead of the LP60) and I was about to ask a similar question so your (and rpbtz's) post have also been incredibly helpful to my situation!

Could you perhaps elaborate what you meant with the above bolded part? Are newer records more prone to damage because they tend to be heavier or something? I am not going to be collecting (very) old records, just in for newer (game) releases, so I'm wondering if that's something to consider when picking my TT.
The LP120 really seems to be one of the most recommended beginner's turntables... Too bad I don't really like the look of it (a bit metallicy/shiny imo). On the other hand, the House of Marley Stir it Up looks absolutely amazing but Reddit recently removed it from their recommended turntables list because of some reported problems. Now I'm conflicted . Sadly the U-turn doesn't seem to be available in the Netherlands
I think I am finally going to order the Starbound vinyl from The Yetee.
Question for you guys, how are they with shipping? Any horror stories, or should everything show up in one piece.
FYI, ShiptoShore is repressing Mother 2 on "Meteor Vinyl." No date yet.

Will that be the only available color for the re-press?
No clue. The linked tweet is literally the only info we have right now.
Personally, I'm still waiting for their Bayou Billy 7".
I really feel like getting the Sonic Mania release now.
