The Mojo Collection: The Ultimate Music Companion
If you’re a serious music lover, you must want to know more about all the music that has come into existence in the past fifty years. No biggie, right? There’s nothing negative we can say about The Mojo Collection — a book that explains how the greatest albums of all time came to be — except that you should probably start praying for your wrist if you intend to buy a hardcopy version. (It’s a really, really heavy book.)
Price: USD$15.89

PSB M4U 1 Over-Ear Audiophile Headphones with Remote & Mic
This is a no-brainer. Every audiophile needs to have a pair of durable headphones — it’s a staple. It has received many tremendous reviews, with many praising its one-button remote and excellent audio quality. Take a look at it again, and you’ll realise that anyone could put it on and look instantly cooler. Hardcore music lover Lane Kim would approve.

Cabin Music Box
This cabin music box isn’t as ‘blingy’ as the one shown in Veronica Mars, but we think it’s decent (and pretty!) enough. Made of real wood, it uses the Sankyo music movement tune with a hidden rail design. It definitely has an Enid Blyton vibe — is it just me, or does it feel like Noddy’s going to appear any minute now?
Price: SGD$68

Lenco L-85 Turntable — Red
Vinyls are making a major comeback. This Valentine’s Day, forget playing cheesy tunes that make you want to poke your eye with your finger. Instead, play some Tom Waits and Sam Phillips on this groovy turntable. It’s going to be an unforgettable experience.

Anker Mini Portable Bluetooth Speaker
Maybe you’re crashing a party, or your brother has called dibs on the Harman Kardon home theatre system. Whatever the reason is, you need tunes wherever you go. Because let’s face it: portable speakers are far more superior, and our Android phones can’t hold a candle to them when it comes to audio quality.
