vinyl records: a story

Vinyl Records: A Story

In a world where music is just a click away, it might seem archaic to delve into the realms of vinyl records and the history of music reproduction. Yet, there's a certain magic in those melodies that were actually carved into solid materials, using the science of sound to reproduce music and making it accesible for generations of music fans.

Today, we'll embark on a journey through time, unraveling the threads that connect us to the music of yesteryears and the technology that shaped its dissemination. But why, you might ask, should we bother with old records when Spotify playlists offer endless options at our fingertips? The answer lies in the invaluable lessons and experiences that await many young ears!

After all, we started Loog not just to help kids play guitar, but to foster curiosity around music. We want kids to play, learn and fall in love with music; and vinyl records, as well as cassettes and CDs, hold a dear place in many people's musical journeys. The album art, the lyrics, the artist's vision all together. There is just something about holding a piece of music history in your hands whenever you listen to music. It is more than just listening, it is a whole artistic experience.

Join us as we uncover the timeless charm of vinyls, exploring why it's essential for kids to embrace these analog treasures in our digital age.
