I found an 8 rpm record in the crates last night. It's all voices and I have to spin this thing manually by hand extremely slow to listen. Some dope voice samples on it though. Anyone else come across records this slow and know which era they come from?

8 RPM's? Nah I never came across anything like that before. That's pretty cool. Can you post a pic of it?

Yeah it's definatley an 8 RPM. When played at 33 rpm its like chipmonk on a meth diet. It also says 8 RPM

i got some records that are 9 rpms and others that are 11rpms. they not like regular vinyl though, flimsy insted of stiff. you can wave em around like a sheet of paper. i also got some records with brail inscriptions insted of a label.

Yo that "Don't leave the house" joint is tight with that voice sample off that 8rpm u found. I like the way it changes pitch naturally because u were rotating it by hand. Real Crazy sounding. :evil:
