Time for new used cartridge

New favorite VINYL Album?
MATT & KIM's "GRAND". i found it very fun to listen to. a relaxed pop sound that is involving and yet not at the same time. not the best vinyl but a good pressing with resonably good accustics, worth the spin. another interseting album by OWL ...
