Mind of The Record Collector: Brandon (MrHoffame)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 сен 2024
- 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 RUclips 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! #vinylcommunity #vinylcollection #podcast

Brandon is the GOAT
Brandon made sense of several common things that record collectors tend to do. Keeping sealed records, for instance. I always hear in the VC, " Just keep one good copy, and purge, sell, or trade the other ones. My very large number of records gives me great pleasure, and I'm not ready to start selling or trading. It's taken me this long to have the collection of my dreams ! Brandon rules ! Thanks for having him on 🎵
Thanks for watching Buddie! Brandon is one of my favorite people - not just collectors - in the community. 😁
Agreed ! I just jumped over to his channel, it had been a while. So many channels these days, for sure !
Great turning on the youtubes on a Sunday morning as I'm starting my day spinning some records and working in the music room and seeing two of my favorites talking records and collecting.
Better than breakfast (maybe) 😂
So you did a broadcast with me and was not worried about being professional, say what! It was great to hear Brandens thoughts on music and the VC. One of the greats of the VC.
Hahahaha, I was “almost professional” by the time we met up with you and Jim for the pod. So think of it like this: without you and Jim putting me through my paces, I couldn’t have done this one with Brandon. So thank you! 😂
Well worth the wait, Chance. This is by far, your finest interview. It never hurts to have an articulate, intelligent, and thoughtful interviewee. (and friend) I enjoyed the conversation.
Sincerely appreciate that Mark, thank you sir!
Great conversation. I love Brandon and his videos. Thanks Chance.
Thank ya sir! 🙏🏻
Brandon's channel has always been one of my favorites! One of the first ones that tuned into regularly. Thank you for doing these interviews.
Thank YOU for watching! Appreciate you spending some time on the video 🙏🏻
Thanks guys! Edit: Brandon should write a collector's book called The Long Walk to Danzig
Hahaha. Excellent title sir!
Loving this series! I’ve been seriously thinking for over a year about getting into the VC on RUclips and this series is getting me excited about it . Keep up the good work man :)
Appreciate the kind words, thanks! The water is warm, if you ever get the inclination (to make videos). Happy to help if you have any questions or ideas 🤘🏻
Dude!! Please feel free to jump in!!! Would LOVE to have ya!!! \m/
Brandon is a legend on the court and on RUclips
🔥🏀🔥🏀🎧
@ConcertBuddie - All of your interviews are great, and I'm so glad you finally got around to Brandon! What a staple in the vinyl community! So nice to see the Hall Of Famer himself open up about his experience in the vc! A founding member! Keep these comin', dude!
Appreciate it mucho! 🫡
It’s about time! The founding father of the VC! Great to get inside the mind of Brandon. Well done Chance! 🙌🏻
Thank you my friend! 🤘🏻
Always great to see an OG. Brandon is class! Nice interview! 👍👍👍
Thank you very much for the kind words! He’s a great collector, even better human!
Nice interview with Mr Hall Of Fame! I had run across one of his videos in the past and was amazed at his record collection and his room where he stored it It’s like he has a record store in his basement with the shelving and posters Incredible
Thanks Dave for checking this out!
Another fantastic interview Chance!! Brandon is the true OG of the VC and one of the few members of the VC I’ve had the pleasure to meet in person, truly one of the nicest guys i’ve ever met and his knowledge is unbelievable, one of your best yet, amazing hearing his insights even though I’ve heard most of them before!! Phenomenal video my friends 👏👏👏👏👍🤘🤘
Aaron, you are too kind Buddie! I’m a little jealous he got to meet you. I hope to cross paths one day with ya (sooner than later)! 🤘🏻
aaron needs to be ur need interview Chance !
@jimsmith3477 a very, very good idea 💡
@@ConcertBuddie thanks Jim and Chance! I’m up for it anytime you want me to do it! 👍🤘🤘
Great interview Chance! Brandon is the man and has certainly influenced my curating and collecting vinyl records. If I ever get a permanent home or location, I'd display my collection the way Brandon does. Prefer browser bins to flip thru the collection. Someday! Fingers crossed 🤞😍
Thanks Christian! His listening room is the envy of many of us, right? Hope you are doing good Buddie!
@@ConcertBuddie I'm doing great. Eye is all healed up. Posted a few vids recently too. For me, living in an apartment building, I can't crank my music anymore. Sucks. 😭
awesome interview!!!!!! i feel so fortunate to live in our area where i can actually visit in person with Brandon and Billy in person. look forward to bumping into too sometime Chance! had no clue Brandon was the hoops star. very interesting to hear about him meeting Weber!
Yeah! Totally look forward to crossing paths with you as well 🤘🏻. Thanks for the kind words, and watching this video!
Awesome video, Brandon was on of the first VC channels I was hooked on.
Same here. Learned a ton from him over the years. Have a great Sunday sir! 🤘🏻
Amazing video Chance! Learned a lot and look forward to the next one.
Thanks Buddie! 🤘🏻
Listened to this the other day on the podcast. Such a great interview!
Thanks Trevor! Appreciate you checking it out (and on the pod, no less) 🤘🏻
Great interview/conversation with The Godfather of the VC.
Thanks for tuning in Kevin 🤘🏻
Danzig Promo 1 is so awesome
🔥🔥🔥
The man, the myth, the legend of the VC!
Truth 🤘🏻
Great interview Chance and Brandon!
Thank you, thank you! ✌🏻
Brandon that one of the first dudes I watched on RUclips on vinyl man love talking to him about 80’s R&B he sent me some killer VCLt recently he is a major inspiration Chance killer mind if a Collector loved it to the fullest .
Thank you sir! I bet it was some sweeeeeeet VCLT 🔥🔥🔥. Always appreciate you watching these videos 🙏🏻
I stumbled on the VC about 4 years ago it was while I was researching gear i think 33rpm (Frank) might have been the first music related channel but lots of great people on here that know and love music!
Right on! I did a chat with Frank not too long ago. I’ve been lucky that 99% of the folks who’ve sat down for these chats have been people I’ve watched for awhile myself; and they are great people to boot. Have a great rest of your Sunday! ✌🏻
Loved it!
Thank ya, thank ya! 🙏🏻
Brandon!!!!!!!
My Favorite interview - sorry Melinda 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Haha. We won’t tell her 🤫 Thanks for spending some time watching!
Heck yes!!
#longoverdue 💪🏻
What, a lot of thought put into a channel name? Wow, I sure failed on that, I should have spent more than 5 seconds on it lol.
😂😂😂
Chance i’d like to see you get interviewed sometime! love to hear how u got into collecting. wonder if your viewers could send u their questions ?
Hmmmm….something I hadn’t considered (AMA). I might do one! Until then, I did sit down with Spinz Vinyl (Jason) a few months ago to talk about the podcast and it’s one year anniversary, plus my RUclips experience. But if there’s bar questions I can answer directly, say the word!
@@ConcertBuddie how did u get into record collecting? did u collect CDs first?
:: mrhoffame is the man 🤙
No argument here 🤘🏻
