Sorry we haven't updated in a while. Apathy? Disillusionment? Contempt? All possible reasons but the truth is we've been pretty busy wrapping this year up and there are very few releases in December. So we thought we would just post some things of interest here for everyone.
New Releases
Um, like I said not much has come out in recent days. There was the Girls "Lawrence" heart shaped 10" that is super limited (we still have some copies) and pretty neat.
There's been some amazing garage rock records to come out. The Eddy Current Suppression Ring collection "So Many Thing" is a record I don't think I'll ever take off our turntable. Ty Segall's Singles collection and Thee Oh See's "Carrion Crawler/The Dream" are both fantastic.
Cool People, Places and Things
One really cool thing about a record store is everyone that's there is at LEAST curious about music. So some of the people that stumble in here do some pretty cool thing like making music or hosting radio shows or what ever. I've mentioned some of them in the past but here's some more. Just goes to show you that you should talk to other people while your here!
Platter Playlist
http://platterplaylists.wordpress.com/
Created by our good friend Paul, Platter Playlist is an amazing playlist blog that is updated weekly and features country, folk, rock and soul from 60's on up. All amazing and all ripped from vinyl. If you come into Repo with any frequency then you have, without a doubt, heard us play this playlist.
Styrofoam Drone

If you like the sort of music we post about on the blog then you need to check out Styrofoam Drone. This is amazing website, created by our pal Zac, that does music reviews right.
Jazz With Dan Buskirk
WPRB-Princeton 103.3 fm mondays 11am-1pm
A couple of weeks ago I was talking to Dan and mentioned that I have a really hard time getting into jazz and I wish I could find the right style to catch my attention. Well Dan went home and the next week he came in with an amazing mix CD that showed me all the other faces of jazz that I never knew about. I have yet to take the CD out of my stereo at home I listen to it that much. Dan is a great guy with a radio show that is equally great. If you want to hear interesting, capturing jazz tracks then you need to hear Dan's show.
PSYCHIC TEENS
http://psychicteensnetwork.bandcamp.com/
If you are not already on the Psychic Teens wagon then you need to fast! A fantastic local band that just came out with their first full length "TEENS" on the new Philly label Golden Voyage. We are trying to always have it in stock but this stuff keeps selling out!
We want to say thanks to everyone that supported and continues to support Repo and we love all you guys! HAPPY NEW YEAR!
