18.01.2022 A NOTE ON RECORD STORE DAY Back in the early 2000s record stores and music released on vinyl were on the brink of disappearing into obscurity. Then in 2007 a few brave and wise people came up with the amazing idea of Record Store Day, an annual day to celebrate independent record stores around the world and reinvigorate the joy of discovering music in physical formats in local stores. Record Store Day was meant as a coming together of like-minded music lovers everywhere, t...o meet, chat, listen, discover new music and of course dig for gems to add to their collection. It was meant as a day of fun, in store live performances, giveaways and to score some exclusive releases only available in store on that day and it worked, it really worked! On top of this, vinyl has made a massive comeback in the last 10 years, bringing brick and mortar record stores along for the ride. Record Store Day has become by far the biggest day of the year for us all, but the joy of that day has gradually lessened. The list of exclusive releases started off jam packed with awesome titles released on beautiful vinyl pressings and got music fans flocking back to record stores on that special day, but that wondrous list has rapidly become a garbage bag stuffed full of massively overpriced mediocre releases. Many regular customers avoid the day like the plague and way too many true fans miss out on the exclusive releases they really want only to find them on ebay for heavily inflated prices the following day or reissued a few weeks later!! Though Record Store Day has been hugely successful on the surface, it always takes a massive amount of preparation, stress and economic outlay, especially when it comes to organising the supposedly exclusive releases. Then Covid happened and really messed things up, Record Store Day being split over multiple dates and the exclusive releases only being available online!! Though Covid is not so much of an issue for us lucky ones in Australia this year, the list of exclusive releases has just become a complete joke, most significantly the prices which are astoundingly and unnecessarily high and can only be lining the pockets of record companies and distributors. Whatever happened to Record Store Day being about Record Stores??? So, we will no longer be stocking the Record Store Day releases. We will just be here, as always, the racks full of well priced records and the passion to share music with anyone who wants it.

17.01.2022 Coming soonThe all new Goldmine Records online store!!! We are currently building a brand new website with full online store with a view to moving away from selling on ebay by mid 2021. We want it to be thee best place to buy records online, so we’d love to hear your thoughts and ideas to help us facilitate this. - What features do you think are essential to online record buying?... - What new vinyl related items do you think we should add to our stock? - Thinking about the current service we provide, what could we improve on? - What will make you a happy, loyal and repeat Goldmine customer? - How do you want to payAfterpay, Bitcoin? Cheers!

14.01.2022 LATE NIGHT TALES If you’re not familiar with this series of artist curated compilation albums, it’s time you were! The tracks on each album are selected and mixed by a different artist hailing from various musical backgrounds, including electronic, indie and classical, to create the ultimate late night mix. Many of the albums end with a story track, read by famous English actors and each release includes a cover version recorded by the curating artist. We currently have all t...he pictured albums in stock at our St Georges Rd store and the latest album curated by everyone’s favourite psychedelic funk band Khruangbin will be here in early December!! #latenighttales #agnesobel #badbadnotgood #bonobo #cinematicorchestra #davidholmes #floatingpoints #fourtet #hotchip #jonhopkins #mgmt #olafurarnalds #sasha #vinyl #vinyladdiction #vinyladdict #vinyljunkie #vinylporn #vinylcollection #vinylcollector #vinylrecords #recordcollector #recordshop #recordstore

13.01.2022 $25 Voucher up for grabs!! So, seeing as Record Store Day no longer seems to be about record stores, I reckon we need to think of a new meaning for the acronym RSD. Something like Remember Serious Digging? or Release Something Decent!. There’s just one rule, entries must be about record stores, music, collecting vinyl, Record Store Day, etc. We’ll give a $25 voucher to the best entry, chosen by us at 5pm on Monday.

10.01.2022 NOW IN STOCK: Hiroshi Yoshimura’s essential ambient albums Music for Nine Postcards & Green have landed. Remastered from the original tapes these two soothing gems will ease any fan of Brian Eno/Fourth World/Environmental music right into that cozy Autumn mood. The late Hiroshi Yoshimura, a pioneer of Japanese ambient music, was involved in a wide range of fields, such as sound design for public installations, graphic design, visual poetry, free improvised performance (us...ing his own body) and inventing his own instruments, right up until he passed away in 2003. #ambientmusic #ambient #hiroshiyoshimura #fourthworldmusic #environmentalmusic #newage #minimalism #electronicmusic #ambientvinyl #green #hiroshiyoshimuragreen #musicforninepostcards #vinyl #vinylcollection #vinylcollector #vinylrecords #recordcollector #recordshop #recordstore #nowplaying #nowspinning

06.01.2022 Local champ & artist extraordinaire Gene Salmon came by our Fitzroy Nth store today to buy an Xmas gift for pop. An unenviable task considering aforementioned pop is Melbourne rock legend Kim Salmon (Scientists, Beasts of Bourbon, Surrealists et al). Discount on next purchase for whoever's first to guess which record Gene picked up for the ol' man! Hint: No guitars on it and funkier than a mosquito's tweeter! #vinyl #vinylcollection #vinylcollector #vinylrecords #recordcollector #records #recordshop #recordstore #kimsalmon #kimsalmonandthesurrealists #thescientistsband #beastsofbourbon #vinyladdiction #vinyladdict #vinyljunkie
