As our generation continues to long for individuality as part of this saturated jungle that constantly dictates what’s in and out for this day and the next, the new movement of finding oneself takes place. Satchmi joins that movement through the passion for vinyl and music. And when it comes to some famous personalities—who we behold in music videos, art galleries, movies or just outside the concrete streets in the metro—we fail to realize that they are like any of us, each with her or his own source of joy, sorrow, and compassion. When most of us feel a great distance from them, our passion for art, vinyl, and music allow us to be connected to a scale of epic proportions. Let’s take a peek at a few iconic figures who shared their passion for these things they call: the black wax.
Steve Jobs
He revolutionized how we listened to music with the introduction of the iPod and the rise in digital music. However, when it came to personal preference, Neil Young stated that Jobs would listen to vinyl records rather than use modern gadgets due to its uncompressed sound quality.
Elvis Presley
The King’s personal record collections have a diverse genre and holds more than 2000 singles and albums ranging from rock to gospel hymns.
Ely Buendia
As one of the most influential artists in the OPM scene, Ely Buendia has expressed his love for vinyls in countless occasions. He acknowledges the purity and joy in the experience of the vinyl buying lifestyle which allows a better appreciation of the records.
Even Jamaican reggae singer-songwriter Bob Marley, loves listening to his vinyl collection!
