Le vinyle creuse son (micro)sillon LE MONDE | • Mis à jour le | Par Thomas Sotinel Dans l'interminable naufrage de la musique enregistrée, on voit surnager à la surface des galettes noires. Qui aurait parié, en 1999, au moment où les premiers craquements se sont fait entendre dans le vaisseau de l'industrie musicale, que les disques de vinyle s'en sortiraient mieux que les CD ? En France, les ventes ont triplé en quatre ans, pour dépasser les 300 000 exemplaires vendus en 2012. Ces chiffres sont à la fois impressionnants, puisque le disque vinyle avait été donné pour mort après que le CD se fut imposé comme le format universel pour la musique enregistrée, mais aussi dérisoires. Sa survie miraculeuse ne suffira pas, et de loin, à tirer l'industrie musicale de sa grande langueur. Apparu au milieu du XXe siècle, le disque microsillon en polychlorure de vinyle a été le support privilégié de la formidable expansion de l'industrie musicale.

Indie record stores see 44% growth in album sales Thursday 25 July 2013, 11:34 | By Chris Cooke Business News Retail Top Stories It can still be a tricky business running an independent record store, especially outside of a major metropolis, but here’s some good news from the indie sector: collectively the UK’s independent record shops saw album sales grow 44% year-on-year in the first half of 2013, despite British album sales overall slipping 1.5%. We know this because of stats from the Entertainment Retailer’s Association, based on Official Chart Company data. Two phenomena in particular helped cause this trend, the continued success of Record Store Day in April, and the ongoing vinyl revival which – although often exaggerated in the mainstream press – is helping some in the independent entertainment retail sector, the indies usually dedicating more space to the classic album format.

Et désormais c’est majoritairement par le biais des distributeurs en ligne de vinyles que la planète techno se fournit en galettes noires.

Video: “White Label” a short film about vinyl by Alexander Macdonald | The Daily Street Bristol based film maker Alexander Macdonald has created this short film that focuses on vinyl records and more specifically the people that have dedicated their lives to careers that involve the format, including Donga from Well Rounded and Chris from Idle Hands. Vinyl is just one of those things, very much like sneakers, some people just love it with a passion and if you don’t understand that passion, you’ll never understand their love for what is essentially a disc of polyvinyl chloride (PVC). This short film lifts the lid on a few people’s personal attachments to records, going deeper than a simple love for listening to music on a high quality physical format and showing that often people’s attachments to things such as records stems from some of their earliest childhood memories and can even be passed from generation to generation. Director, Producer & Editor: Alexander Macdonald Cameraman: Jim Smith Sound: Zander Mavor
