Surface Noise | Critical Mass! Are Record Collectors Too Critical?
Episode 336
Thursday, 22 January, 2026

Before you spin that next black circle, let SURFACE NOISE inform, entertain, and complain! For this latest rendition of the program, we go through some current events including updated release dates from Acoustic Sounds on some long awaited Bob Marley titles and a new Beach Boys boxset highly coveted by their fan base (and already sold out on their webstore). Add in a couple other new releases out this weekend, and consider the "inform" box checked! ✅ The panel then delves into a conversation about whether record collectors today are too critical - expectations in quality, value, and sound just scratch the surface (pun not intentional). Does a critique often become misconstrued as being critical? And should we always be critical in evaluating what we are bringing into our collections, and why we collect? So many questions! Grab the oven mitt, 🔥 takes are a plenty on the latest SURFACE NOISE! ⏬⏬⏬⏬ For more on host Concert Buddie: https://www.youtube.com/@ConcertBuddie https://concertbuddie.com IG: @concertbuddie For more on Arnaldo (fidelios_frequency): https://www.youtube.com/@fidelios_frequency IG: @fidelios_frequency For more on Jason Roxas: https://www.youtube.com/@JasonRoxas For more on Chris (Groove Seeker): https://www.youtube.com/@Groove_Seeker IG: @thegrooveseeker For more on the immortal Jose Moreno Rahn (aka John Bong): https://www.youtube.com/@josemorenorahn https://auroracentralrecords.bandcamp.com For more information on Vinyl Community Podcasts: https://vinylcommunitypodcasts.com . . . . .
