Luke Gabel Quick 7

Hey Everyone,


Stoked to try a new format for the Quick 7 out. We have had a massive response and we keep getting people on board. Thanks for all the positive vibes so far. You're all legend 


This weeks 7 comes from Luke Gabel. Lukes been throwing around ideas for a better format for the Quick 7 this week. He's been super keen to share this and we are Pretty Stoked as well.

1. Current Set Up? 

4x2 KALLAX Shelving unit, with an LG Soundbar and subwoofer. The turntable is an Audio Technica AT-LP60-USB. It sits atop the shelving unit, while the records are stored below. They are spread across 4.5 cubes and sorted in alphabetical order, besides soundtracks and double-ups. There are 3 racks attached to the wall that can display interchangeable single LP covers (thanks, VinylRax!). I keep the 7” and 10” in their own little section! 



2. First Record you Picked up with your own cold hard cash/expand if you copped some freebies to kick you off?

First record I remember picking up with my own cold hard cash preceded my purchase of a turntable. Some friends had family had gifted a few here and there, but then I bought a beat up copy of The Empire Strikes Back - so poor in condition that the sleeve virtually crumbled to dust after a little while - at a nearby local weekend market stall. The vinyl itself wasn’t unlistenable and - for the first time - I noticed some qualities in the music played through analog I hadn’t heard before. From then, I was hooked. It wasn’t long after that I discovered how colourful these things could be; the addiction grew very quickly. 




3. Last Pick Up?

Northlane - Alien: TP & Architects - LF//LT: TP

4. Favourite Record?


The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring - Complete Recordings (5xLP Box Set, Ltd. to 5,000 worldwide, housed in a red leather-style box). I’ve got the others in the collection, but this one takes the cake. 


5. Pre Order List? 

Slowly Slowly - Race Car Blues (Galaxy); Silverstein - A Beautiful Place to Drown (Clear/Purple Cornetto) 

WCAR - To Plant a Seed (White/Blue Mix) 

Four Year Strong - Brain Pain (Bone in Blue w/Bone Splatter) 

Parkway Drive - Viva the Underdogs (Half Red/Half Orange w/Splatter)

Polaris - The Death of Me (Clear with multi splatter) 

Green Day - Father of All Motherfuckers (White w/Splatter) 



6. What’s your Holy Grail?

There are so many “grails” out there for me, but close to the top of the list would have to be  Anberlin’s “Help Yourself” collection. Anberlin are my all-time favourites and the collector’s box is simply gorgeous. Some cool extras in there too. Besides that I’d probably go with “The Poison” by BFMV or “Revenge of the Sith” (Grievous edition) by John Williams! 



7. Parma or Parmi

Parma, for sure.


Its been rad to chat to Luke behind the scenes. Keen to interact with more of you as we progress through this massive list of people we have. 


Thanks for the Support everyone!!!
