I guess I unconsciously started collecting CDs last year- when we began to cover album launches for Odyssey. Some of my favorite foreign artists released new albums last year so buying them at the album launches seemed like the most natural thing to do. I also started getting getting copies of albums and DVDs of my favorite Japanese artists. 🙂 Of course since we also cover and feature local artists on the blog, I started getting CDs – albums and EPs of local artists and doing reviews on the blog, and before I knew it my collection started to grow. Before I used to just sync the songs from the CDs to my iTunes but now I have started to rediscover the joy and pleasure of placing a CD in the CD player and just enjoying the quality of the sound that comes out- of course the songs and the music too! I guess I’m slowly starting to evolve into an audiophile and I’m starting to be more conscious about the quality of sound and music.
I’ve actually been seeing a lot of posts about Satchmi, unfortunately I missed a show that was held there, Reese and Vica (who I have featured on the blog) performed. Located at SM Megamall’s Fashion Hall, it’s really the ideal place for music lovers to hang out. Aside from the vinyl, there are a lot of different things to check out – most importantly I think, there is even a listening room where you can listen to vinyls!
It is in Satchmi that I have discovered The Motorino.
As seen on their website The Motorino is an affordable turn table that was specifically designed for the amateur music enthusiast. It is the perfect introduction to the world of music.
FEATURES:

In the mean time, hanging out at Satchmi will definitely be an inspiration and will help me with my love of music ^_^ and my slow yet sure conversion into an audiophile. It will also definitely inspire me to work hard and save more for my own Motorino and finally start collecting records 🙂
