PORTALS

Product Information

I got a truly awful pressing, three gigantic scratches on the B side covering all tracks, resulting in skipping. The color was super disappointing (I really wanted the pink and black to be separated but it was all mixed and murky).

The ugliest variant of ALL TIME, not just of theses variants but of ALL TIME, pink and black dont mix well it loks like a disgusting greasy black dirt all over a weird pink vinyl, I cannot tell you how ugly this variant is dear lord.

Vinyl comes in a fully color printed inner sleeve as well as a separate sheet with additional credits. With a savvy handle on teasing her projects through her socials, Martinez has drawn her fans into the world of this new album around themes of rebirth, growing embryos and eggs incubating in forests. I know this music style leans towards a lot of processing and surreal sounds and that adds to the feeling of the album.

Martinez lifted the curtain on PORTALS earlier this week with an instantly viral TikTok video confirming the death of her notorious alter-ego "Cry Baby," last seen considering whether to walk into the light at the beguiling conclusion of 2019's internationally acclaimed full-length film, K-12. Now with a massively successful US tour opening for sweet soul darlings Thee Sacred Souls behind him, 2023 is sure to be a propitious year for Daptone's newest signee. Anyone who has had the pleasure of seeing Jalen perform live knows that he is one of the most captivating performers on today's soul scene. Beverly Hills, New York City and London, Loma Vista Recordings are an ever-evolving family of creatives, home to many iconic artists we know and love at Rough Trade.

the mockup sticker that is shown on the front clearly shows a translucent violet vinyl but when i opened it the vinyl was white with some kind of purple splatter - honestly i wasn’t disappointed with this. After a lot of reports from others I was expecting surface noise free copy but even after thorough cleaning i couldn’t get rid of the noise…mostly affecting side A while side B is pretty smooth. With over 12 billion global streams, 4 billion official YouTube views, more than 53 million followers across social media platforms, and 27 million videos posted on socials using her music, Melanie Martinez reemerges with a spellbinding new trailer heralding the arrival of her hugely anticipated new album, PORTALS.

His full length debut on Daptone Records is equal parts raw feeling and elegance and exudes confidence and charm. Recorded at Hive Mind Studios in Brooklyn, NY, with the help of producer/arrangers Mike Buckley and Vincent Chiarito (both members of Charles Bradley's Extraordinaires) and crack team of a-list musicians, his upcoming album blends heavy arrangements and introspective lyrics with sophistication, leaving the listener in a blissful wash of wonderment. Today's exclusive trailer – directed by Martinez and streaming now - now sees the appearance of a mysterious egg from which an enigmatic figure emerges.Mine skipped a lot unfortunately and at first I thought it was my player since I have a mid level player but I played a record I never had problems with and it was fine.

Portals Limited Edition Bloodshot Translucent Vinyl 1LP, in a 12” x 12” gatefold jacket, with printed inner sleeve. While this record does not come in a gatefold, the jacket and printed inner sleeve are thick and sturdy. The stylus was moving left to right with the largest sways I have ever seen, it had a lot of surface noise on both sides and was covered in dust.

As the meaning behind their label name suggests (a rough translation from Spanish as 'hill view') Loma Vista has climbed to the summit of today's musical landscape, engaging and representing a sweeping range of the most popular scenes and genres of today. However, there is an overuse of auto tune on her vocals which is annoying because MM’s voice is quirky and cute and that is part of the appeal to MM for me. PORTALS LIMITED EDITION BLOODSHOT TRANSLUCENT VINYL 1LP COLOR MAY VARY NOT EVERY VINYL WILL LOOK THE SAME. I must be the most unlucky person but my copy finally arrived and I’m quite disapointed with the sound quality.
