    This is some classy shit. And way out of my price range. 

    fucking hell i imagine getting those home and getting them all in place and BAM! 2 days later the letter “B” snaps off digging for beastie boys records... i imagine all of those letters snapping off over time, their sexy looking and slick looking but doesn't make much sense to me.

    about 5yrs ago i finally bought some dividers, shit was plastic and were $2 each if i recall correctly, but they were the exact same dividers my local record shop uses, never been happier...

    but now some of my filing is a bit “off” previously (before dividers) buck65 was filed with sebutones and sixtoo records and method man was filed with wu-tang records and Luke was filed with 2 Live Crew, now my shit is kinda mixed up a bit and still takes some time to remember that i will not find BDP records with KRSone records... anyone else having this issue or another issue i have sometimes is filing by last or first name....

    This whole chain has had me giggling today- thanks for that! I'm Kate, the founder of Koeppel Design, and maker of those classy dividers. I usually don't wade into online chats about my products, but I would just like to say, since starting the business in 2013, we have never ever had an issue with dividers breaking or snapping. Not one complaint! Once a client had a brand new puppy that chewed a few letters, but that was a bit different. In addition to being classy, they are strong as hell. They are not for everyone, but who or what is!

    Thanks for the laughs today, and a nice bump in sales as well! -Kate

    What’s up Kate! This makes me glad that we had nice things to say. I would have felt terrible if the thread were titled “ugliest record dividers ever”

    Years ago I bought a bunch of the ugly plastic white dividers. My problem is I don’t know whether to write the letter facing up, or facing side ways. Of course they would be up, but Curtis mayfield has his own divider so that is obviously written sideways. Same with “wu tang” and cal tjader” for some reason. Anyways, names go sideways, so then I put individual letters sideways but then I run into a problem. 

    The first was H.  When H is sideways it is capital “I” (not in this particular font, but you know what I mean). My sideways E looks like M. U or C... 


    Z or N...?

    I also have a section in “S” called “soulstrut”. The Leo sayer is there, and the stark reality (stones throw version of course), the welkshake and breakbeatrare, and then some other releases from members of days past like Asprin, Delay, Karlophone, and others.

    That was great!

    Are you controlling the video at the same time?

    Thanks... Yes!  I have a stream deck controller in front of my mixer that controls all the cameras and media.  Huge balancing act but a fun challenge.

    That is a really cool setup, I can't think of any other video'ed mixes I've seen where you can peep the covers, the turntables, the whole scene, and silly psychedelic film clips all mixed live. Most people just set up the one camera. No half measures.


    Enjoy the music too obviously - the Shadow mix was great

    Thank you!  I've put a lot of thought, time, and $$ into this. It's been a labor of love and it's something I felt I needed to do to pay homage to all the great artists talked about on this site over the years. My goal is to do at least 100 episodes. I do wish I was getting more traction with the viewership, though, but I guess that will come in time.  It's hard to stick out with all the noise. The conceptual mixes like the Shadow one has boosted interest quite a bit.  So I expect to produce more thematic mixes like that in the future.

      

    Dude I'm all about themes!  Suggestions

    OH JESUS: All cover versions of Put Your Hand In the Hand that DON'T have a break

    0% FUNKY SOUL: Songs with "funky" or "soul" in the title that are neither funky nor have soul (I was thinking about starting a list of these on discogs, but why bother)

    CONCRETE JUNGLE: Back before musicians really knew what to do with synthesizers they just made random bleeps with tape splices and shit and called it Music Concrete (accent grave over the "e", I think). It was the future of music!  So anyways, just play that shit with a sped up Amen Brother break looped in the background.  For an hour.  BAM. Concrete Jungle.

    OH I GET IT: Puns and double entendrees.  No music, you just read titles, like "The price you got to pay to be free"....and then you wait a little bit and then it's like "free usually you means you don't pay.... get it?".  On to the next one....


    I'm telling you. This shit is hot.
