  Mans sounds like a socially awkward bot-troll, or an alias tbh.

  Dude fits right in! Welcome! There’s a vast repository of knowledge archived on this here Strut if you look around. 

  
  

  If you are searching for “amazing-deep unknown danger genre” (AKA music that sucks), you should check out Waxidermy. They can tell you about ethno-honkey, arctic throat-singers, new age moves, etc. Definitely the move in your case. Good luck in your quest, and try not to lose your mind and end up like Stinky Steve.

  I’m around 1500 - 2000 records of various formats. I was buying 10-20 records a month between 2014 - 2018 when I had a weekly gig, which died with COVID. 

  
  

  I’ve made zero attempts to find a regular spot, including one I was welcomed to by a fellow DJ specializing in 45s. I’m too tired to drive 35 minutes, play from 10-2 on a Saturday to a small and mostly disinterested crowd for $80 (my half), then be home by 3am for my wife and kids to wake me at 8. I’m just old now, I guess, and my records are collecting dust

  Nah, dude, it’s all good.
  
  I made a legit attempt to ID, but that sound is out of my wheelhouse. Dope tune, but I’m stumped. 
  

  
  

  This board used to clown pretty hard on people who never bothered to intro themselves and made demands about ID’ing stuff. That’s in the past though haha.
  
  Also, welcome!
