the first CD i bought with my own money was r.e.m's
monster. i was nine or ten at the time and really into
r.e.m. i grew up listening to r.e.m. and still got a weak
spot for their early albums (murmur and reckoning mostly)..
so there ya go..

the first record tape that was bought to me, before i
reached the age of employment was an electronic music
compilation called 'space music' with art of noise, to name
one. i think i was 8.

time, i was in my early 10s

The first tape I bought was Imagination's "In the heat of
the night", which, to be fair, is pretty cool. However the
first vinyl I recall buying was some Snoopy single, The
Bloody Red Baron? I think my mum took me to some show in
Lewisham where there must have been.... I don't know,
Peanuts puppets. I don't remember. My first LP I remember
buying was either Kings of the Wild Frontier by Adam & The
Ants, or, possibly, something like Neil Norman Orchestra
"Sounds of the Galaxy", some album of covers of Sci Fi film
themes. (I need to look this up)

OK it was Neil Norman And His Cosmic Orchestra ‎–
Greatest Science Fiction Hits - I think I might still have
it (I hope I do....)

Udo Lindenberg - Feurland

1987 at the age of 8, pocket money
i remember that pretty well and actually still have it.
by the time i was mainly listening to rock/pop samplers of
the 80´s that were brought to me by mum, while my parents
mostly listened to other stuff. like any other kid i was
absolutely going crazy over s-express and everything that
was sort of high maintenance, sample packed, etc...

ill tell you something about the guy and the record since i
guess hes mostly unknown outside of germany. it was one of
the german revue rockers´pinnacle albums. he used to remake
rock n roll classics and has truly genuine but well over the
top rocker persona. while he wasnt always taken seriously at
times and seemed more like a pop phenomenon, he actually
enriched the often covered songs with rather decent
political and social lyrics and had an amazingly successful
and long career ranging from the 70s to the present. 1994 he
bought a suite in the famous hotel atlantic in hamburg. some
bond movie was filmed there btw. and he lives there ever
since. there even is a musical around his works, oh and he
was a famous critic of the german democratic republic and
his regime, still somehow managed to play a concert in east
berlin at some point.

heres a picture of him with erich honnecker

Techno Trax Vol. 3 ...

I didn't buy it myself. I was 5 and I had seen Activ 8 by
Altern 8 on MTV and wanted that track. So I told my father
to get it. ... Turned out that the version on that CD was
not the version I had heard on MTV. It was quite
disappointing.

... First CD I ever bought by walking into a store myself
and paying with my pocket money was either Nevermind by
Nirvana or Feeling So Real by Moby

I was bought tapes and records from 3 years onward, I
couldn't even begin to start... Bilitis OST is what "they"
put on to try and get me sleep. I think that record
influenced me more than I will admit.

i cant remember the first tape i bought really, i bought a
lot of them, stealed some, copied a lot. im not ashamed to
say that piracy was a factor in the shape of my music
tastes, along with radio and mtv

tapes were taped from the library cos we were poor when i
was growing up, was something labelled "rave tape 92" by my
mum, i would've been 6 at the time. praga khan - injected
with a poison stands out in my memory. cd-wise it would've
been manic street preachers - the holy bible
