Jeff Mills' Vinyl CD Can Be Played on a Turntable or in a CD Player

Jeff Mills is an American techno DJ whose latest album, 'The Occurence - Sleeper Wakes,' is available on a Vinyl CD. That's right, this CD is a vinyl record and vice versa.

I find the Vinyl CD amazing. Vinyls have been written off by mainstream music consumers as outdated tech. But there is something to be said about putting a record on and hearing the needle scratch. Aspiring DJ heroes will love the Vinyl CD. I guarantee it.
