TRNTBL

The recent boom in the popularity of vinyl shows that it isn't going anywhere. People love collecting physical records, listening to their analog sound, and making new music discoveries with friends.

The company VNYL is giving the classic record player a modern, social-first twist with its Sonos-, Bluetooth-, and Spotify-compatible player, TRNTBL 499 .

It keeps track of all the records you play, even the most obscure ones, and makes a Spotify playlist for you based on your listening history. You can then share the playlist with friends, or use it to find new and related artists.

All day, every day, our eyes are glued to screens large and small so it's no wonder that now more than ever, people value the physical feel of placing a vinyl on a turntable, closing their eyes, and letting the music surround them.
