Here's a couple more songs that have been stuck in my head lately. The first one is Breakbot's Shades of Black which came from playing the Nadeo / Ubisoft game Trackmania Turbo . Whenever this track would come on, I swear I was racing better! It has such a catchy funky groove to it and a catchy bassline. Give it a listen below and I hope you like it as much as I do! The second song is Mark Morrison's Return of the Mack. I heard this song back in October at a halloween party I attended. It's a rather simplistic R&B song but I'll be damned if it didn't stick in my head. I found myself randomly singing the chorus and humming the bassline over the last few months and maybe you will too after you listen to it below.

Lately a few tracks from a lesser known artist, that is unless you know the old Linus Tech Tips videos intro music, named AdhesiveWombat have been stuck in my head. I learned about AdhesiveWombat from LTT as well as from the video game Robot Roller Derby Disco Dodgeball  (which is exactly what it sounds like from the title). The song from RRDDD in particular that is always stuck in my head is 8 Bit Adventure . It's...just...so...damn...good! That lead me down the path of somehow finding AdhesiveWombat's profile on SoundCloud where I discovered a few more of their songs that I immediately got hooked to. The most notable ones for me are... Downforce Can't Stop Won't Stop Funky Sundays Night Shade Distortotron Symphony Of A Forgotten Sprite Each of these songs have their own unique style and I am absolutely in love with them!

This one has been stuck in my head for quite a while. One of my favorite things I like about this song is how it progresses. The beginning is more melodic and then later on it pumps up the intensity into the rock/metal we know and love from A7X. Anyway, that's my two cents, hope you enjoy listening to this just like I do! Rock on my friends!

I stumbled across this thanks to a friend who linked me similar music to this . Ever since I took my first listen, I've been hooked! I love how chill most of these tracks are and I love that they are remixes of classic VGM tracks. Check out the full playlist below! Enjoy!

I love that Nintendo took the time and effort to recreate some of the music in the Super Smash Bros for Wii-U and 3DS games. This is one of the ones that's always finding its way back into my head. Enjoy!

Before we get into this, one thing I didn't mention in my Amazon review, was that I purchased this record player based off of this list of recommendations  on the /r/vinyl subreddit. Which I highly recommend examining, if you are looking at getting into Vinyl record listening and are trying to avoid one of these (unfortunate) record destroyers .That is also the same list I used to purchase the replacement to this player that I will post a review of soon. Anyway, onto the original Amazon review... Rating ★★★☆☆ (3 out of 5) Pros Fully automatic (auto start/stop) Included stylus is elliptical rather than conical Price (got it for $199) Rubber anti-slip mat and dust cover included Cons Playback speed consistency issues Other Thoughts TL;DR Playback speed consistency issues ruin an otherwise wonderful record player. Denon, please fix this!!! This turntable provided a wonderful experience… while I had it. I loved the idea that it was fully automatic because the co...
