I have not been doing a good job of keeping track on my recent purchases here. Which is a shame, because I picked up some really cool stuff. Unfortunately, it's all already been assimilated into my collection as a whole, and I'm having difficulty remembering exactly what I've bought since my last post. Here's what I've bought solely in the past two weeks though:
 
Emancipator: Soon It Will Be Cold Enough
Geinoh Yamashirogumi: Rinne Kokyogaku
The Haxan Cloak: Excavation
Kashiwa Daisuke: Program Music 1
Kyary Pamyu Pamyu: Nanda Collection
Magma: Mekanik Destruktiw Kommandoh
Mount Eerie: Clear Moon
Mount Eerie: Ocean Roar
NON: God & Beast
Nujabes: Hydeout Productions 2nd Collection
Pharmakon: Abandon
Prurient: Pleasure Ground
Ramleh: Hole in the Heart
Toe: The Book About My Idle Plot on a Vague Anxiety
World's End Girlfriend: The Lie Lay Land
Various Artists: Katamari Fortissimo Damacy

Just made it back home from a trip to Japan yesterday. There I splurged a lot of cash at two different Tower Records stores (couldn't go to the big one in Shibuya sadly). This is what I bought:
 

 
Center: Greeeen - Ima Made no A Men, B Men Dest!?
Top: Nico Touches The Walls - Passenger
Upper Right: Sekai no Owari - Entertainment
Lower Right: Aqua Timez - because you are you
Bottom: livetune - Take Your Way
Lower Left: Aqua Timez - The BEST of Aqua Timez
Upper Left: Supercell - My Dearest
 
I acquired a grand total of 102 new songs out of Japan! Already listened to Sekai no Owari's Entertainment and loved it! Can't wait to listen to the rest in the coming days!

The Necks - Silverwater, CD, Rer Megacorp, 2009

 
Francesco da Milano / Hopkinson Smith - "il divino", CD, Naïve, 2008

 
François Couperin / Jordi Savall - Pièces de violes avec la basse chifrée, CD, Astrée Auvidis, 1976

 
Tony Conrad - Early Minimalism, 4 CDs, Table of the Elements, 1997
 
Luc Ferrari - Presque rien, Recollection GRM / Editions Mego, 2 LPs, 2012

 
 
Very happy as I'd been searching for a couple of these (the Couperin and Conrad records) for a long time now. Finding the Conrad boxset seems especially unlikely given Table of the Elements, one of the greatest independant labels of these times, closed shop a few years back

How is Terria? I've had my eye on the latest pressings of his stuff after getting my SYL box. Beautiful album.

The LP is outstanding. Didn't compare it directly to the CD, but from memory I'd say it trumps the CD without question.

Let me know how the Weezer sounds. Been considering those.

I haven't heard the CD version, but the MoFi LP sounds really good, especially the drums which are really punchy. Perhaps not quite reference stuff but very good for a live recording. Worth considering if one is a Weezer fan.

I need that Ashes of the Wake LP.

How's the sound?

Since the pressing isn't a heavyweight one there's a lot of audible surface noise during the quiet sections but besides that the sound is phenomenal! I would highly recommend the LP.
 
 
Latest five. First three are vinyl and the two others CDs.
 

John Coltrane - Blue Train [Analogue Productions, 45rpm 2 LP]
 

John Coltrane - My Favorite Things [Original Recordings Group, 45rpm 2 LP]
 

Oliver Nelson - The Blues and the Abstract Truth [Analogue Productions, 45rpm 2 LP]
 

Hiromi - Move
 

Esa-Pekka Salonen - Out of Nowhere
 
 
Since I've finally gotten everything for my turntable after waiting two and a half months and set it up, here are a few pictures for those who might be interested.

I love the fact you've got it on the floor. Very 'minimalist audiphile' and that's my favorite kind of set up.

I really want to just do my Leben on an amp stand. TT on one and then my speakers. Racks full of gear don't do it for me as much anymore.
