Concert Buddie | Mind of The Record Collector: Brandon (MrHoffame)

In one of the most overdue 'sodes in Vinyl Community Podcasts history, we finally - FINALLY - get the OG of the Vinyl Community - Brandon (MrHoffame) in the hot seat of the VCP exclusive series: Mind of The Record Collector. Brandon was literally one of the first in the community to begin sharing his collecting journey on YouTube and taking us along for the ride. Like many, I've learned a great deal from Brandon over the years: first through his videos themselves, then as I've been fortunate to get to know him personally, outside of the "VC". In fact, I've definitely "borrowed" several practices + approaches to how he's built and shaped his collection over the years. In a word, his collection is INSANE. Not only that, he has one of the best listening + collection rooms out there. We touch on that, plus talk about those quiet early days of slowing finding others online to share the collecting journey with, discuss the different "levels" to collecting we've both experienced, and share another bi-product of his collection prowess: his new curation venture of building collections for others (Sounds of You). All that plus some lighting round questions to put some cool water on the hot seat, NOW on Vinyl Community Podcasts!   For more information on host Concert Buddie: https://www.youtube.com/@ConcertBuddie   For more information on Brandon (MrHoffame): https://www.youtube.com/@mrhoffame   For more information on Sounds of You Curating: https://www.soundsofyou.net   For more information on Vinyl Community Podcasts: https://vinylcommunitypodcasts.com
