Episode 60: SlyVinyl Records

This sixtieth episode of "Hot Takes' featured community member Eric from the label SlyVinyl Records! It made sense to bring Eric onto the show, having been releasing work by independent net-based electronic acts for so long and also recently involved with My Pet Flamingo and Utopia District's Flamingo Fest event. Two hours really wasn't enough time, but what time we did have was packed with fun moments like talking about Eric's background producing and selling skate tapes in school and deep diving into the three's love of Radiohead and their discography. There may or may not have been some background in how SlyVinyl sourced Chlorine Mist as a performer for Flamingo Fest. It is said that there may have been a firsthand look inside the vinyl manufacturing process over the years in America. The announcement for SlyVinyl's next release by Blue Sky Black Death was teased, and some talk occurred regarding re-releasing an overlooked album by electronic post-rock act El Ten Eleven. Episode 60 was a very good time, so don't waste time if you want to know the story of how SlyVinyl Records was taken over, hear thoughts on the importance of physical media within and without the vaporwave scene, and know a little bit of the scoop on the barber beats beef!
