This weekend, Retarnouts prepared to be prosecuted to the full extent of the jam.

Hi everyone, welcome to Retarnouts. I am Jerry Parrish and I'm it for this week. It's just me

and music. That's right, this is a Retarnouts radio episode, the first in more than a year.

There's a reason for that. That reason is that the pandemic and supply chain constraints have really

done a number on the music industry and on the distribution and production of vinyl.

It hasn't been too big a problem for major labels like Warner or Atlantic or whatever.

Is it Atlantic still around? I don't know. Anyway, the big companies have been okay because they

have such volume that they command the attention and production of vinyl. They have priority.

Whereas the smaller labels, which are the ones that actually publish video game music,

not so much. So it's been a quiet year or it was, but this year has actually been pretty loud.

There have been a lot of vinyl releases this year for video game soundtracks.

And we're going to talk about some of the first ones to come in. There's actually

there have been so many releases this year that I'm going to need to put together another

episode in a few months just to kind of catch up. So please look forward to it.

I don't know.

Returning to 3DU as you may know if you've heard these before is just basically me talking about

some of the music that has come out about old video games lately. Mostly on vinyl, just because

that seems to be where the the collector's market is and where the greatest effort is being

expanded in terms of issuing music in physical media. So if you're not into vinyl, well,

actually don't just spare because I do have something to talk about that's not just vinyl.
