5 for £1 so picked this up with Green Day albums, didn't check this one as I have a few Queen comps already

(missing my vinyls bc they are harder to move around so theyre not with me rn 💔)

I'm a huge fan of Vocaloid, you might know Hatsune Miku if you're unfamiliar with the word, maybe Kasane Teto is ringing a bell as well! there are also others, like Camellia, Kenshi Yonezu, Mili, Project Sekai, but mostly Vocaloid and Vocaloid-adjacent here

I've been collecting for over 10 years now, but recently the prices have gone up terribly and my budget has lowered 💔

hope you enjoy the (badly taken) pics of my collection ✨

I unfortunately grew up just as the iPod started getting popular so I've never really got to use or collect CDs until now

I got the cd player and first 3 CDs for my birthday a few days ago and was lucky enough to find the Los Campesinos! CD in a charity shop today!

For the band With Teeth. Came to me with an idea for their CD release and over many prototypes and samples, this was the end result.

Hiiiiiiiii :3 I've been collecting Cd's for the past 3 years and this is what I have rn and i would like to know some opinions about it.

Which album from my collection do you guys think is the best?

Do I have a good music taste in your opinion?

and wich one do you think is my fav genre/artist?

I'd love to hear some recommendations :3

I was shaking when I found The Downward Spiral Deluxe at that price.

I was feeling nostalgic this summer, so I listened to stuff from when I was little. What albums did you have on repeat? I’m super curious to hear what everyone listened to!

Found this old suitcase next to a dumpster perfect for my collection since all of my cds fit inside

Voulez-vous by ABBA is coming. If you recommend any albums, please let me know.

Got each for $1 too. I’m pretty new to collecting, and I fear I’ve peaked early

Two Pound Charity Buy.

Some nice compilations here, interestingly (or not), the Ozone Boulevard compilation / Birth of Cool Six are from Australia, and (the best of) New Order is from the US.

I live in the NW of England where the charity shop is…

Also a real find with the Steely Dan Reelin’ In The Years compilation, it’s the original Nimbus ‘85 release, so probably one of the better sounding Steely Dan compilations out there I understand.

Not shown in the picture is The Very Best of Morrissey CD / DVD compilation which is in good nick, and will probably sell that on.

the some great reward cd by depeche mode has its label upside down when stored, its kinda bugging me out, its an original 1980s copy so im scared to play around with the case to much incase of damaging it, any way to fix this or do i just have to store it upside down

I started collecting vinyl in 2026 and cds in July 2025.

Um am I cooked?

Spotlight on some lesser known stuff.

The Bins - Happiness Complete
A masterful work of turntablism. Hip hop with the right dash of rock and soul. Smooth album, real smooth.

IBLISS - Bintang Fajar
It’s rare for me to find doom metal that stands out enough for me to purchase nowadays. There’s alot of electric wizard/sleep clones. This group from Malaysia is a refreshing take on the genre mixed with a 50s feel.

Walrus - Hakari no kakeral
90s shoegaze from Japan. Wall of sound, insane vocals.

Also really hyped to finally add some MF DOOM to my collection. One was a gift and the other thrifted.

———————————————————
Not shown in the picture because I forgot until now

Combustible Edisons - I, Swinger (cool modern swing)
Jurassic 5 - quality control (dope 90s hip hop)
Eric Clapton - slow hand
Metallica - reload

Just started uni and of course I had to bring my cds, not that I have a way to play them yet.

20 cds (19 that I care about)

any David Lynch/Angelo Badalamenti fans here?

Note: The CD between the Deicide digipak and Ziltoid the Omniscient is Ocean Machine: Biomech by Devin Townsend, but it must be some sort of eastern european edition because it came in a slimcase. And yes, I'm using an alcohol flask to level it. Otherwise it would fall over constantly :)

This is one of the dreaded MADE IN UK BY PDO disks, this one from 92. Memory fails me, but I believe it was a component in the lacquer that reacted with the reflective aluminum layer, causing it to oxidize and eat the aluminum.

The disc plays fine, mostly. I had a flac rip of this from way back in the day. Comparing this rip to that one does show a few read errors, but nothing you'd be able to pick out.

Basically there's no hope for this disc. The oxidation will continue. I'm considering some extreme preservation methods, like spin-coating the disc top with uv-cure soldermask. It'll stop the oxidation maybe, but the damage is done.

Oh well. Still pretty cool though.

Recently rewatched Amadeus. Last time I watched it we were shown it in High School. Such a great flick. My wife never saw it and thought it was going to subtitles.

I like getting new albums in the mail there's something different about waiting for it to arrive and then being able to listen to it, also I preordered on Ebay because Amazon was double the amount.

I don't know if I missed out on an opportunity to listen to a great Primus album or if I won the lottery by getting a copy of one of the last two Soundgarden CDs on my wishlist.

Sure, it's missing some of the experience of owning physical media, but it's also in great shape.
