2. - The EP I chose is Arctic
Monkey’s “Who the f*** are
Arctic Monkeys?
- The track list is 5 songs and
under 30 minutes.
- The EP was also considered
to “cheap” to be an album as
well.

3. - The LP I chose is The
Weeknd’s “After Hours”.
- It’s considered an LP as the
runtime is a total of 56
minutes dispersed over 14
tracks.
- “After Hours” is also a 2-LP
since a vinyl can only hold 40
minutes and the LP exceeds
that.

4. - The owner of the record store
stated that they normally
offer consignment for indie
artists and keep a specific
section for it, but at this time
due to reorganization of the
shop, that it is not offered.

STORE DAY IN NOVEMBER, BUT THEY HAVE NOT YET
STARTED ADVERTISING OR PROMO.
6. - The owner pointed out this

EXCLUSIVES
8. Horizon Records had
promo presented as a
flyer that listed live show
for albums in the store
that will be held at a local
venue.
PROMO
9. - I would use this store if a local
artist had an upcoming album
release. Horizon Records is a
relatively popular record store in
my area and gains lots of foot
traffic everyday. It’s also
connected to a Bohemian cafe
where a new artist can showcase
their songs.
- If I were to plan an indie artists
upcoming album release, I would
host a small live show at the cafe
and have an area set up for merch
and album sales within the record
store.
