Cue weekly mantra: As we’ve pointed out over the past few weeks (rather broken record-like) one of the happy coincidences of being The Record Store Day Blog For 2011 is that we’re afforded the opportunity to underscore one of our main themes—namely that vinyl is a contemporary medium which is thriving and more vital than it has been in some time—DJ’s, purists, and collectors notwithstanding.
So, to that end, we’re spending the next eleven weeks straight putting records into the hands of TVD readers as we count down to April 16, 2011—Record Store Day. We’ll have a giveaway for you each and every Tuesday as well as sporadic surprises throughout the forthcoming weeks.
For Week #2 we’ve got Deadmau5 4×4=12 which was just released a few weeks ago via Ultra Records.
“With huge sales figures, a GRAMMY nomination, a JUNO award for Dance Recording of the Year for his CD collection “For Lack of a Better Name,” a performance at the 2010 Winter Olympics, being the house act for MTV’s 2010 Video Music Awards, deadmau5 is a shooting star in clubland and beyond.”
The rules can’t be any easier to enter our Eleven Weeks of Record Store Day Vinyl Giveaways: simply leave us a comment in the comments section to the contest letting us know why you deserve to win that particular LP. Be creative, funny, incisive—whatever it takes to grab our attention.
Winners of our Tuesday giveaways will be notified upon the launch of the next giveaway and must have a mailing address within the US and Canada.
