( That is a DIY platter mat ) 

 

 

 

Care to elaborate? Sorry if I missed it earlier than this.

 

The new tt that I like a lot came with a felt one.......bleh. It never made it out of the box.

Put a leather (actually suede) one on it and I love it, better than the only kind I ever had before.... rubber.

Its a composite material that was stored in the garage for several years 

Thought hmm that will make a nice platter mat - it’s about 5mm thick 

The material has 2 outer surfaces - on one side it’s paper and the other fine fabric, both white in colour 

Sandwiched in between is a material like very very fine airated expanded foam ( millions of very tiny marbles ) 

Its light as a feather 

 

Does the job well ✅

Good evening gents (morning for Paul).....   Nice work on that mat :emotion-21: ....    My Rega came with some special felt thing.   It is fine most of the time, but in the dry of winter..........it will stick to the LP when I remove the record !!!  :o...   The old Dual is basic rubber and there is not that problem..

 

Ok, see you later on from Music Hall..........something vinyl tonight will be played :)

A quick spin before going to work This afternoon 

 

A concept album without human voice based on George Orwell’s Book 1984

Genre can be described as synth-pop/classical crossover 

Easy for an artist  to mess this up when dealing with long passages but on this album it’s weaved together well 

 

Artist - Anthony Phillips ex Genesis

Title - 1984
