The Playlist
The Playlist is the heart of New Vinyl Day. This is where every post lives news, reviews, drop alerts, and the odd rant when a pressing goes sideways.

I’d love to hear from you.
This site isn’t just a one-way thing. Music’s better when it’s shared, and I know there are people out there with great taste, sharp ears, and stories of their own.
Maybe you’ve got a favourite pressing, a memory tied to a track, or a record you think I should hear. Maybe you just want to say thanks or argue with something I wrote. That’s all, welcome.
You don’t have to be a vinyl nut or a music expert. If you’ve ever played a song twice in a row because it hit just right, you’re in the right place.
