Got some classics in there. They also bought CDs and DVDs just to pile up in their car or lounge

I see a few bangers there ngl

Technology should have never advanced past the 1980s. The past 4 decades have been a mistake.

I only buy sheet music. Then I play it myself on piano. Proper old school the only way

>>52700373
Industrial revolution was a mistake the fuck you mean

>>52700489
nah life was shit before then. You get a cold and die. You get a splinter and they amputate your arm. You had to give your life to a church. No cars, no warm showers, no airplanes..... 1980s was the best time period... at least in the US.

>>52700548
Not necessarily get a cold you die.

Was it that much better in the 80s that medicine meant you could work until you were mid 60s rather than dying mid 30s?

I doubt you're mid 50s, you have an idea of what 80s America is like

>>52700631
No I was born in 95, but from the media I have seen, and from my parents/uncles, the 80s was the best. No internet, you could mind your own business, wages were still fair and you could live a very nice life on a median salary. Social security, no wars, cool tech coming out. Hardly any political correctness, drugs, booze.....

>work until you were mid 60s rather than dying mid 30s

If you happened to survive into your 40s before the industrial revolution, if the million common medical cases we know about today didnt kill you, you would still be working bud lmao. Tell me this video isnt pure kino.

No they dug deep and had to sacrifice and suffer through blood sweat and tears to own a home and raise a family. Pull yourself up by the bootstraps or stfu you pathetic whiney piece of shit

>>52700292
Yup, kids these days don't know what real music sounds like.

>>52700686
1995 gang. I agree with most of what you said re lack of modern technology, no internet. Wages were decent ans houses were affordable. Drug wise idk, no info on this for me.

My point was more around is it really any better being able to live to 60, if you're working in shit conditions. Vs dying mid 30s but living a better life

>>52700889
Glare on the bottom left is obscuring Rush - Moving Pictures, Hold your Fire, and 2112.

>>52700489
consumerism had kind of a charm back then. you would go to the store, listen to the music, think carefully about what CD to buy. listen to it carefull over and over. or a certain book. or a movie. or a game.

nowadays everything is available at anytime to the point we're the quality is so flushed down that it doesn't want me to consume anything anymore.

>>52700889
That LOTR set is clean is it an audio book

>>52700963
Yep, BBC radio drama. Even came with a map.

Stop aging me I'm 30
I am NOT a boomer I'm not even gen x I'm a millennial
Most millennials were born in the 80s, these transition zoomers (1995-2000) were old enough to see the old world, but too young to truly experience it or grasp how it worked.
I feel sorry for you guys, you'll never know the experience of sticking in a CD mix that you and your gf made in 2007 on her slow ass dial up basement PC while you fuck in the back seat of a shitty Honda civic in your high school parking lot

>>52701007
Pretty much every synthwave guy did cassettes, at least early on. Got a bunch of their LPs too, first pressings from blood music.

>>52700955
Checked, yeh I can remember early days with my Nan. Going to the mall and playing on all the PS1s and listening to the CDs.
Agree completely almost all industries are over saturated.

Plus media pushes the most degenerate filth as popular.

>>52700992
Dam that's awesome, who's voice is it?

>>52701063
Full cast, with sound effects, musicians. It should be online.

That is a fucking boomer tier tape collection if I’ve ever seen one. Take the Elvis, Mendes, and Holly. The rest can go in the trash

>>52700292
Gen X primarily bought those

t. gen x fag

>>52700292
and 2 new cars, a fence, pool, deck, patio and of course raising 3-5 children.

>>52701391
Yeah, boomers primarily bought vinyl.

>>52701142
>>52701189
Legend cheers

>>52701391
Yeah I know I remember the older kids (you) being reluctant to buy CDs in the late 90s and some of you were edgelords about it too.
"IT HAS A CLEANER SOUND"
"YEAH SEE IT SOUNDS WAY TOO DIGITAL"
were you guys just memeing or could you actually notice the difference

>>52700292
I'm a 25yo proto zoomer and I still like CDs.

>>52700292
this confuses and enrages the zoomies

>>52700292
Was at a dinner party with boomer guests this evening. A boomette was telling me how she bought a 2bed/2bath home in Southern California for $26k when she was a single 25 year-old delivering mail for the USPS. I smiled and told her “wow!”

>>52700889
oof, the non-matching headphones for that sony walkman

I see these things all the time at goodwill what are you talking about?

>>52701602
I think my dad has the original yellow ones still, but they sound like shit

Eating forbidden fruit was a mistake. Fuck women.

Hold Your Fire is one of my faves.

80s larp

zoom zooms don't know the struggle

>>52700292
>Boomers all spent thousands of dollars on these
And did it each time a new medium was out. My boomer dad spent ungodly amounts of cash on building his collection in :
>vinyl 33T
then
>vinyl 45T
then
>radio K7
then
>CD-ROM
then apple store...
And still could afford the sono for each new support, 2 houses, cars, a cessna plane, etc... And the same applied for movies in videocassette, then on CD, then on DVD, then blueray, then netflix...

Meanwhile, i never spent a fucking penny in movies, series, music, or vidya, by pirating and downloading everything since i was 13, and i'm still struggling af as an adult, living like a fucking hobomonk.

>>52700889
>>52701815
>not having the matching Sony™ brand headphones AND boombox
what’s it like being poor?

so ive spent thousands on vinyl records

Abba, Buddy Holly, Rob Orbinson, and Eddie Money are based
90% of the rest of that is typical boomer MKULTRA psy-ops shit.

>>52701591
Did you fuck her?

>>52702320
Don't you dare insult Debbie, you zoom zooms have nothing on her

I've stopped following music years ago but I think vinyl was popular last decade
might still be

>>52700292
My boomer boss forced me to take xmas vacation to see family. I wanted to tell him to fuck an aids ridden nigger. He doesn't pay me enough to have a home and family. I have no reason to celebrate xmas. Fucking boomers.

>>52700955
It's still like that, musicfags would listen to albums on YouTube "carefully" and then go and buy vinyls. And quality is relative, you really think everything from the 80's was gold? There were countless turds that made it onto the radio back then just like today.

>>52702457
Don't miss that smell tho

>>52700372
Procol harum's version of the devil came to Kansas is my favorite no cap fr

>>52700292
I spent thousands of dollars on my gaming rig and im still able to afford a house. You ask why? DEXT, that's all i need to say

>>52700292
All you need is internet access today and you have a level of access that miogs theirs into oblivion.

>>52700292
This is amazing, but this "Sergio Mendes & Brasil" one is bugging me wtf is that?

>>52700292
that is a good collection that will always be worth listening

>>52701142
So Ian Holm played Bilbo AND Frodo? Must be a very select club. Fantastic actor. Might download this, cast appears to be entirely White. Pakis and Niggers spoil every BBC production now. I went to the RSC a few weeks back to see Scrooge and half the cast were pakis.
