Nina Las Vegas ProfileThe best record I stole from my folks' collection was…
My parents had a huge record slash CD collection. Due to my Dad's music purchasing addiction, I didn't need to buy anything of my own until my late teens. They also had amazing (and slightly unpredictable) taste, so it was easy to convince Dad to try something out and get the odd LP I suggested.
I can actually remember the day when my Dad brought home two CDs, Josh Abrahams' Sweet Distorted Holiday and Kelis' debut album Kaleidoscope. I stole both immediately! To this day, Kaleidoscope is still one of my favourite albums. The Neptunes, the cover art and general Kelis vibe was so ahead of its time.
The first record I bought with my own money was…
Coming from Wagga, if you wanted anything that wasn't at Brashes (throwback!) you had to order it from Don Tuckwell Audio on the main street. The first thing I ever ordered? Friendly's Akimbo.
The record I put on when I'm really miserable is…
Right now, I'd have to say Frank Ocean's channel ORANGE. I was on holidays in Europe when it came out and it takes me back there!
The record I put on when I bring someone home is…
Anything by Jamiroquai. #LOL
The most surprising record in my collection is…
I bought the full The World Is Not Enough soundtrack. Featuring the Garbage song of the same name and then about 20 film score tracks. (Yep, I went through diehard Shirley Manson phase.)
The hardest track to mix on this CD was…
PLEASE don't ever talk to me about the nightmare that is the Dead Prez intro, ok?
