Chubbiness - もっと、HOT！がモットー！ Single


V.A. - HELLO!!! vol.0 Compilation album (術ノ穴 label)

I'll do a full review of the album soon #exidslayme.

The CD-Single of Sakura Kaze arrived in the mail yesterday. Still waiting for Voyage, but it'll be a while before that one gets here, as in JULY.

Interestingly, I finally figured out how to make Amazon accept my gift card credit for digital music purchases, so I finally bought PSY's song Gentleman. I bought Gangnam Style through iTunes back in 2012, and I've been wanting to buy Gentleman since it came out back in, what, 2013? Yeah, that one was long overdue.

Also, the CDs I've bought through Amazon somehow triggered the earning of a $1 bonus credit toward a digital music purchase, so I was also able to get this track by Aurosonic and Martire, which I've been wanting to buy as well. Really good song, this one!



UPDATE: I only had 55 cents left of my Amazon credit after I bought Gentleman, so I didn't think I could get anything else until the next time I get a gift card, but I found something for $0.49, so I got this:



This was the only thing that came up in the search based on price, so I dunno... it may be the only track on Amazon selling for $0.49? Weird...

UPDATE (again): Sorry, had to post again with this, just one more "purchase". Actually, it was technically free, but it's a pretty good track...



If you're able to, you should definitely "buy" this one.

Nothing overall.

Various Artists - IN THE NAME OF LOVE: ARTISTS UNITED FOR AFRICA



A 2004 compilation album featuring Christian artists covering U2's hit songs as a charity thing to fight AIDS in Africa.

Should be an interesting listen. Got it for $1.00.

UPDATE: 2015.06.20

Got these from HPB today for $2.00 each.


Also, my package, Voyage by The Sound of Arrows, that I was expecting to arrive in July... I received it today, so it only took 2 weeks to ship from Japan. I ordered it on June 6th. Hooray and stuff!

UPDATE: 2015.06.23: Everything but my CD purchases from Amazon, "Sakura Kaze" and "Voyage", I've resold back to HPB. However, my next post here will be a new CD purchase. Stay tuned...

UPDATE: 2015.06.24: New CD purchase GO!!!

Gama Bomb - Tales from the Grave in Space


Got it from FYE's clearance selection for $2.74 after tax.

EDIT: Back when this album was released, it was made available as a free download, and apparently, you can still get it that way! Looks like I won't need to open my CD copy!

New CD came today.

[MAINTENENCE EDIT / UPDATE: 2015.09.03]

This post previously contained images of my most recent purchases, but most of my photos were deleted because I deleted my previous two Facebook accounts where the images were posted, but here's a list of every CD I currently own:

Thien Kim - Dong Nhac Tran Thien Than (Hoa Tau Dan Tranh So 2)
Halsey - Badlands (Deluxe)
Above & Beyond presents OceanLab - Sirens of the Sea / Sirens of the Sea REMIXED
The Sound of Arrows - Voyage (including The Instrumental Experience)
SD Music - Guitar Hoa Tau Tru Tinh - Tinh Yeu 2-5
Kaskade featuring Ilsey - Disarm You [Mix & Burn custom CD]

I'll be getting Thien Kim's Hoa Tau Dan Tranh 1 as soon as the shop I'm ordering from gets it in stock. They've ordered it for me, but it'll probably take another week or so to arrive. I'll update with a new post when I get my copy.

Well uhh, . . . I ordered a bunch of CDs from Diverse Direct, but they haven't arrived in the mail yet, so . . .

Oh screw it, here's the full list of my most recent order:

Hybrid Monster / SKETCH UP! Recordings
Lio Sazer EP / Black Berry Recordings
Verdure EP / Qualial
Krazy Psycho Bass / Lilium Records
Updraft 1 / Updraft Records
Contents / Junk
Driven' De:st-ructure 5 / fang

BUMP (8/31): And now they're finally here. Totally worth the wait.

I checked in at Vina again and the CD I was waiting for still hadn't come in, so I bought another recommendation.



The CD-text in the disc said "THREE GUYS" instead of listing the three guys' names on the tracks. I thought it was funny.

I almost forgot about this one:



Huge thanks to my homestay family in Japan for helping me with (indirect) shipping. It took a while longer for the CD to actually reach me as a result, but I also received complementary downloads for the two bonus tracks ahead of time, so there's that too.

Back in September, I went ahead and sold off all the CDs I had left before this post so I could get money together for my Amazon Fire tablet, but I've finally picked up a couple more CDs for a bit of something new... they're used, but new to me.

Mindy Quah - Love Me


and this one by aiko (but mine's a Miya Records release, so I think it's a bootleg.)


I'm kinda meh on the aiko CD, so I'm going to give that one away for sure, but the one by Mindy, I'll be keeping a hold of for a while, as I like the art and music a bit more and the entire package seems more legit as well.

UPDATE: 2015.10.28

I do love me some random CD-Singles. Here's some CHVRCHES and some Pop Evil.





2015.11.22 UPDATE

I was listening to this song a bunch recently, so I went ahead and bought it from Amazon with some leftover credit.



And just before that, I bought Year Zero by Nine Inch Nails on CD again. I've bought and sold it several times over the years, but it's honestly one of my all-time favorite albums, both in sound and surrounding concepts.



And as previously stated, I did give away that Aiko CD, as well as the Pop Evil single, after I was done using them. I still have the Chvrches EP/single and the Mindy Quah album.

Japanese DDR Extreme, purchased from a Thrift store in south Florida a few weeks ago.

A DDR machine from a thrift store? How much was it?

How much was it? Also, that's the best thrift store ever!
