Rudderless Records Weekly Mailout #53

 

Our weekly look at this weeks new arrivals, re-stock, staff picks and a whole lot more...

Travis Scott Utopia Diamond-certified, eight-time GRAMMY® Award-nominated Travis Scott returns with the long-awaited UTOPIA. The fourth full length #1 studio album contains 19 tracks including “I KNOW ?,” “K-POP” with Bad Bunny and The Weeknd, “DELRESTO (ECHOES)” feat. Beyoncé, and “FE!N” feat. Playboi Carti. Purchase Sylvan Esso No Rules Sandy With echoes of indie future garage production, mixed in with ostensibly fun, party-pop vocals and a lo-fi sensibility, fans are correct to make comparisons to the likes of Stereolab, Jamie xx or Bloc Party. The twist is that it's a post-lockdown album; tracks like 'Didn't Care' and 'Echo Party' channel the essence of post-quarantine rebellion and disaffection, with club-ready structures nearly always glued together by analogue-sounding fuzzes. Purchase Dizzee Rascal Don't Take It Personal Dizzee Rascal is back. The original grime innovator and long-time UK favourite has put together an electrifying new album, Don't Take It Personal, which comes via Big Dirte3 Records Ltd. As someone who enjoys legendary status he will also be judged against what he has already achieved but that's fine - this new album more than stands up. It finds Dizzie back to his best with effortless mic flow and tight lyricism as he ducks and dives in and out of several key UK sounds. It is a swagger, confident and captivating record from one of the best to do it. Purchase Real Estate Daniel Daniel is the sixth studio album by the American indie rock band Real Estate, released on February 23, 2024 on Domino. Produced by Daniel Tashian, the album was recorded in Nashville, Tennessee, and is the band's first with drummer Sammi Niss, who joined the band in 2020. Purchase Wu Tang Clan Iron Flag Iron Flag is the fourth studio album by American East Coast hip hop collective Wu-Tang Clan, released on December 18, 2001, on Loud Records. It was certified gold in sales by the RIAA. Purchase Aerosmith Greatest Hits Greatest Hits is a compilation album by American hard rock band Aerosmith, released on August 18, 2023, through Capitol Records. It was released in a variety of formats, with the main edition including 44 tracks, as well as a one-CD edition including 18 tracks, a two-LP version containing 20 tracks, and a single LP version containing 10 tracks.

Audio Technica LP60X - Auto Belt Drive Turntable Whether you’re just getting into records, rediscovering a record collection long since buried away or simply adding a turntable to complete your system, the AT-LP60X fully automatic belt-drive turntable is an excellent choice. This affordable, easy-to-use turntable plays both 33-1/3 and 45 RPM records and, with its built-in switchable phono preamp, can be connected directly to your home stereo, powered speakers, computer and other components, whether they have a dedicated phono input or not.   An update of the popular AT-LP60, the ATLP60X features a redesigned tonearm base and headshell to improve tracking and reduce resonance. Noise is further reduced by the inclusion of an AC adapter that moves the AC/DC conversion outside of the chassis where its impact on the signal chain is limited. Audio-Technica has been a leader in phono cartridge design for more than 50 years, and that expertise shows in the AT-LP60X’s Dual Magnet™ cartridge with replaceable stylus. The cartridge is integrated into the headshell for assured performance and ease of setup. The turntable comes with a detachable RCA output cable (3.5 mm male to dual RCA male), 45 RPM adapter, and a removable hinged dust cover.   Experience the high-fidelity audio of vinyl   Fully automatic belt-drive turntable operation with two speeds: 33-1/3, 45 RPM   Anti-resonance, die-cast aluminum platter   Redesigned tonearm base and headshell for improved tracking and reduced resonance   Integral Dual Magnet™ phono cartridge with replaceable diamond stylus (ATN3600L)   AC adapter handles AC/DC conversion outside of the chassis, reducing noise in the signal chain   Built-in switchable phono pre-amplifier for phono- or line-level output   Includes: detachable RCA output cable (3.5 mm male to dual RCA male), 45 RPM adapter, and removable hinged dust cover   Specifications   Type fully automatic Motor DC servo-controlled Drive Method Belt-drive Speeds 33-1/3 RPM, 45 RPM Turntable Platter Aluminium Wow and Flutter Less than 0.25% (WTD) @ 3 kHz (JIS) Signal-to-Noise Ratio >50 dB (DIN-B) Output Level Pre-amp “PHONO”: 2.5 mV nominal at 1 kHz, 5 cm/sec Pre-amp “LINE”: 150 mV nominal at 1 kHz, 5 cm/sec Phono Pre-Amp Gain 36 dB nominal, RIAA equalized Power Supply Requirements 115/230V AC, 60/50 Hz Dimensions 359.5 mm x 97.5 mm x 373.3 mm Weight 2.6 kg Accessories Included 3.5 mm (1/8") mini-plug (male) to dual RCA (male) output cable 45 RPM adapter Removable hinged dust cover   Buy Now Pro-Ject vinyl clean.
