Mine was yesterday when I got my first vinyl, ae -
incunabula. I look at it and its beauty brings a tear to
the eye *sniffle*

aphex twin - drukqs
managed to be at the store the day it came out. didn't even
know really there was a new aphex cd comin out, just asked
the person at the register about it (cause there were a good
number of copies sittin on the rack), just imagine my
ultimate joy when she told me it was an hours-old release.
but yeah, i get chubbies over stupid things like that. lemme
alone.

Buying the milky white 1968 double CD, ''The Beatles'', and
gazing at the creative cornucopia track listing on the back
on the drive home from Walmart filled me with pride. I
became a man that day.

The Avalanches - A Different Feeling : this is a radio promo
mini cd, you can't buy this sucker in stores, I got my
chubby digits on it thanks to a friend of a friend that
works in radio,.. soooo beautiful

The Avalanches - Electricity Ep : got this on vinyl, it's
not that rare

Radiohead - The Bends (Japanese Import) : Probably not all
that rare, but features two bonus tracks "Killer cars" and
"How Can You Be Sure?"

Björk - The Best Debut Mixes for those who don't buy white
labels : the name speaks for itself, I bought this because I
like bjork and it also had an underworld remix, yet again
I'm not too sure how rare it is.

Aphex Twin - Caustic Window Compilation : igot this on vinyl
just recently, I think It's a re-release though

Aphex Twin - ABB3 : Also got this on vinyl, I know
this one is a re-release

Squarepusher - Untitled : Later renamed to "do you know
squarepusher?" on the album "do you know squarepusher this
is a one sided vinyl with just that track on it, there are
minor differences between this version and the one on the
album

I think when I got Bradley's Robot for 20 bucks. But when I
get the original AB3 vinyl I will be the proudest...but AB2
will out-do even that...

that plays in my DVD player :)
nearly 12 hours of wholesome Autechre goodness.

I found the Tori Amos 1000 Oceans single--in cassette form--at a Hastings.
It was only 33 cents! Bwa ha! Very rare. I guess. Yay for
cute little cassettes!

I was quite proud when I bought the album 'Grey' by Sofa, as
it represented the last album I had to buy to own everything
on Constellation.

That said, some Constellation stuff is on the clear-out list
now :P

I've just won the GAK 12" on eBay for a lot less than I
thought it'd go for...(hurrah!)...but I haven't got a record
player over here so it has to go into storage at my Dad's in
Wales...(hurroo)

pachi: I heard the live disc ain't so hot. What's it like?

I'm most proud of Drukqs. First time I've ever seen another
Aphex fan (apart from my best friend). I was looking down at
the artwork getting all excited, I glanced up to meet the
eyes of another Aphex fan, who I have to say seemed quite
paranoid.

Aphex twin - Analogue bubblebath 3

Autechre - Peel sessions.
I'm crazy about drane, so I'm very happy that I found the
official release where it's on.

I was also very proud I managed to find Melodies from mars ,
after looking for it for 2 years.

Fisherspooner - the first album.
It is the 2001 release, in a carton sleeve, before it got
re-released .
There's one track less , but hey, I got one of those babies
before the big mass started buying it.
