The Podcast — Stylus in the Haystack

Stylus in the Haystack is a podcast dug out of the 78 RPM era — needle-drops, forgotten sides and the stories behind them. Sifting through the crackle for the gems hiding in the hay.

New shows land on Mixcloud and you can follow along here on the podcast page or subscribe via the RSS feed in any podcast app.

Two Homes for the Music

Morton’s 78rpm Lair

You’re in it. The Lair is the quiet, modern home: the latest news and finds, and the podcast. No clutter — just the music and the stories.

The 78rpm Manor

The Manor is the full retro experience — a lovingly over-the-top tribute to the old web (a love letter to GeoCities and the original net nerds), and home to the deep collection. Step inside for the Jukebox, a real guestbook & shoutbox, a frames edition, teletext, a BBS/ANSI terminal, a tiny WAP build, a time machine, hidden easter eggs, and a pure-HTML 1998 edition that still runs in Netscape Navigator.
