Man this is ****ed up...I've had 11 rap records (singles, one LP) leaning against the wall, floor level right behind my computer desk chair for about a month. Today, I went to grab one of them and it was stuck to the adjacent record cover to the point where the cardboard ripped-I was like "wtf...?"

Further examination revealed the truth.

******* cat piss.

You'd think that only the first record would get hit but no...the cat must've came at it from the side cuz every ****in record took substantial damage. Like the bottom right corner to about the bottom middle of each record, with 1 to 2 inch height stains. Reeks like hell, I had to throw out every cover and paper sleeve. Suprisingly, the records in the ones with the cardboard covers/paper sleeves don't smell at all, and you can't even tell that they were urinated on, but it's probably in the damn grooves...Some were forunate enough to have plastic covers/sleeves.

ish is maddening. At least I've already recorded most of these records but still, how random is that?! I've already lost a bunch of magazines n such to these bastards (including some Scratch mags >: | ), now they're comming for my records? We have two cats, I dunno which one is responsible...

so basically...

Keep your records out of their reach or keep them in some kind of thick or plastic packaging.


On the bright side of things I copped some videogame/anime soundtracks the other day for sampling purposes. There's some wild stuff on these things; I'm hittin up an anime/game convention tommorow to pick up some more. Here's one I just made today sampling the ps2 cult classic Ico...it's called 'beat 55' for now since the original loop was at 55BPM (stretched and pitched up to 79)

i've been telling people this for a LONG time now, ever since ps1 tombraider, place the black disc in your regular cd player, and go to track 2 and up, listen, listen. some of the best ambient sounds and stuff I've ever heard.....

I'm an avid gamer so i've heard some good stuff, glad you found that though... keep banging....

Weird, I've never got that to work. I think there's some kind of hack you can download to hear the tracks or somethin tho

Sorry to hear about ya records but
To save yourself from further grief i'd get rid of the cats. If it had been my house they'd never be coming inside again.

HAHAHA...it happens...how old are they ? and dont you have alitter box for them that serves you right :D J/K

on the real tho...yeah i would clean the vinyl with some 90% alcohol about 1/4 ALco to the reast water or just wash with some cold soap and water and dap dry with a paper towel,


i ve had a few cats and only one that i picked up off the street the lil fucer shit on my records...diarrhea style like, i took that fucer to the pound NO QUESTIONS ASKED just drop him off in a box. that was the only time my other cat was Kool 8) he loved music, till he got out the house and got ht by a car.

anyways i had to cut corners on the record covers and i used some disinfectant ...i dont have animals anymore cause there just to much to have to deal with it's like having another kid or kids if you aint got one.


i can totally feel what you went through...thats why i dont deal it it anymore my kids want pets again but NO
