Back in the 80s I did a lot(more than 500 - of tape trading). Basically with fans in Denmark and germany.
That's how I got familiar with bands(and then buy the vinyls - from the bands I liked). I assume that was illegal back then and illegal now.
Now tape trading is outdated. How do you get familiar with new bands?
Only listen to one song on youtube?
Only listen to extracts of the songs and make the decision?
Blind purchases? - I dont to it anymore.
