Record Collector of the Month - March 2022


First album: The record that set collecting in motion was a plain white copy of ‘Intrinsic’ from The Contortionist. It’s one of those albums that’s just so perfect in a lot of ways. The timing was great, the proximity in the discography is perfect, the songwriting was so pivotal for my ear at the time, the lyrical content, etc. etc. I fortunately had the chance to open for them at a local show right before the album came out. They played some of the songs from it for one of the first times ever live. I could go on, but I digress. Aside from that, I’d also inherited my dad’s old collection, as most do. It’s stocked with the classics: Journey, Def Leppard, Nazareth, Boston, etc.

Favorite Enjoy The Ride or Enjoy The Toons release: Another trick question? I was lucky enough to witness the golden age of Nickelodeon (Doug, Rugrats, KABLAM!, Angry Beavers, Aaahh!!! Real Monsters, Hey Arnold). By a small margin, I think ‘The Best of Nicktoons’ takes the cake. It’s got all that and more. It’s perfect. I still vividly remember stumbling on your site to find a treasure trove of nostalgia. Somehow it timed out well and you had the green and orange splatter on clear copies in stock. I knew I had to have it. Vol. 1 of Hey Arnold! is very close behind though. The A side is fantastic, even when you take it out of context. It’s really a remarkable release. Upon listening to it the first time, I was so immersed in it that I forgot it was a record. Literally no fuzz, cracks, pops anything. It’s superb in every measure. Also, ‘Riding the Wave’ from The Blanks. I love Scrubs.

Favorite album artwork: You’re really making me think about these. Some album art is great as a stand-alone, but there’s always a few that match every nuance and detail of the record. The one that sticks out the most to me is ‘Melting Sun’ from Lantlôs. It’s an encompassing, embracing listen full of summer warmth which Pascal Hauer captured perfectly in the artwork. The oranges and pinks throughout are so bright and vivid but not in a commanding way, you know? They get your attention, they can’t be ignored, but they draw you in. The whole gatefold is stunning. If you’re looking for some post-winter pre-spring tunes, this album is the jam.
What are your favorite local record shops to support? The Exclusive Company and Eroding Winds. I visit the Green Bay and Appleton Exclusive Co. locations regularly, ok, habitually. Tom at the Green Bay location is incredibly helpful, always helping me get a hold of titles I’m after and willing to place special orders for me. I’ve been going there since middle school when I was just collecting CDs. I haven’t calculated the percentage of my collection that’s come from The Exclusive Company, but I’d be willing to bet nearly half. I’m really spoiled to not have to drive hours to find quality selection. The folks at the Appleton location are fantastic too. I’ve had tons of help with the audio side of collecting from their guy Todd. Eroding Winds, also the HQ for Gilead Media, is a newer found haven for
me. I don’t get there often enough as it’s a bit farther of a drive, but when I do, the owner Adam always makes it worthwhile. I blame (thank) him for showing me the ropes on Imperial Triumphant and fueling my deep dive into their work. He’s another one that’s always courteous beyond typical standards.What have you been listening to more frequently lately? I’ve been on a pretty big Meshuggah kick. I think about this time every year since 2017, I dive into their discography heavily. This year it’s been a focus on ‘The Violent Sleep of Reason’ and ‘Catch ThirtyThree.’ I’ve also been on a Sleep Token kick. Their newest album took some time to grow on me but it’s continuing to grow quickly. Aside from those two, it’s been ‘Zeal & Ardor’ from Zeal & Ardor, ‘Natoma’ from Stormlight, ‘The Goatman’ OST from The Unseen, ‘Krüller’ from Author and Punisher, and ‘The Shape of Everything’ from SOM on frequent rotation.
What was the best album(s) you've discovered this year: It’s still early in the year, but I’ve been listening to the new album from this French outfit Celeste called ‘Assassine(s)’ a ton. It wasn’t mind-blowing at first, but the more I listen the more I’m finding I really enjoy it. It sounds like a sort of blackened Gojira. If Mario has Wario, in terms of sound, Gojira has Celeste. I’ve also been blindsided by ‘Kinfolk 2: See the Birds’ from Nate Smith recently. I was naively misled that he was only involved with Vulfpeck but turns out he’s well-versed and multi-talented. Massive thanks to Mike at Silent Pendulum Records for sending me a copy and showing me this incredible album. I’ve been watching (binging) Dexter and recently found out about Michael C. Hall’s band Princess Goes to the Butterfly Museum. I’ve taken a quick liking to that, and it’s outside of most of my listening habits so it’s a nice change of pace.
What upcoming releases are you most excited about? First and foremost, the approaching release from The Contortionist. They always tease stuff out of the blue which amplifies the excitement. If my hunches are correct, it’s on the horizon. Aside from that, I know the new Animals As Leaders record ‘Parrhesia’ will be phenomenal. The singles released so far are as mind-bending as ever. I’d be willing to wager the same for ‘Immutable’ forthcoming from Meshuggah. There’s also a label, Wax Vessel, dedicated to resurrecting cult classic MySpace era bands that’s putting out one of my favorites from back in the day. It’s the full discography from the band Silence. It’s that quintessential deathcore stuff I was big on back in high school and I can’t wait for my copy to arrive.

Scenario time! If you could create a vinyl variant for any album (already pressed or never been pressed before), what would it look like? I’ve inadvertently been thinking about this for a while. I’ve always felt half and half variants are underappreciated. I have a soft spot for them. To reference my prior list, if I were to have a hand in pressing any Jakub Zytecki release, I’d choose ‘Nothing Lasts, Nothing’s Lost.’ I’d start with a half pastel pink and half baby blue record to match the album art. I’d add in some grey and black inner splatter, originating from the center label only on the blue half, and finish it off with strictly radial splatter on the pink side. I haven’t seen anyone do this (yet) and I think the result would be something unique to add the ever-growing variant diversity.

As cryptocurrencies continue to reshape global finance in 2026, the risks have never been higher. From sophisticated phishing campaigns to fake wallet apps and investment scams, millions of investors face the devastating reality of lost or stolen digital assets. When your crypto vanishes, panic sets in—and that’s when fraudsters strike again, posing as “recovery experts” to exploit your vulnerability.
CONTACTS US
Techyforcecyberretrieval(@)consultant(.)com
https(://)techyforcecyberretrieval(.)com
But there’s a legitimate path forward.
TECHY FORCE CYBER RETRIEVAL stands as the industry’s most trusted crypto recovery company, combining advanced blockchain forensics, global partnerships, and a client-centric approach to help victims reclaim what was stolen.
Why Recovery Is Possible—With the Right Team
Cryptocurrency’s decentralized, pseudonymous nature makes asset recovery complex—but not impossible. The blockchain is transparent. Every transaction leaves a trail. The challenge isn’t finding the funds—it’s having the expertise to follow that trail through mixers, bridges, and exchange deposits before they disappear forever.
That’s where TECHY FORCE CYBER RETRIEVAL excels.
Our Proven Recovery Framework
We don’t believe in shortcuts, false promises, or upfront fees. Our process is built on transparency, forensic precision, and real results. Here’s how we work:
1. Case Intake & Initial Assessment
You begin by submitting a detailed report: compromised wallet addresses, transaction IDs, timestamps, and any communication with scammers. Our intake team reviews your case within hours to determine immediate next steps.
2. Blockchain Forensic Analysis
Our specialists use custom tracking tools to track your stolen assets across multiple blockchains. We identify laundering patterns, exchange deposit addresses, and potential freezing points to build a clear investigative roadmap.
3. Global Partner Coordination
Through established relationships with regulated exchanges, DeFi protocols, and compliance teams worldwide, we initiate direct communication to flag suspicious transactions and request asset freezes where legally permissible.
4. Legal & Regulatory Engagement
When necessary, we collaborate with legal partners and law enforcement agencies to strengthen recovery efforts—especially in cases involving large-scale hacks or organized fraud rings.
5. Recovery Execution & Fund Return
Once assets are secured, they’re transferred directly to a new, secure wallet of your choice. We never hold your funds. And critically, we operate on a success-only model. You pay nothing unless we recover your assets.
6. Post-Recovery Security Guidance
Recovery is only half the battle. We provide personalized recommendations to secure your remaining holdings—from hardware wallet setup to phishing awareness training—so you can move forward with confidence.
What Sets TECHY FORCE CYBER RETRIEVAL Apart
While countless “recovery services” flood the internet, few deliver legitimate results. Here’s why we’re consistently rated the best crypto recovery company in 2026:
- Zero Upfront Fees – We only succeed when you do. No hidden charges. No bait-and-switch tactics.
- Advanced Blockchain Intelligence – Our forensic tools track assets across Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, and 50+ other networks.
- Global Reach – Partnerships with exchanges and regulatory bodies in North America, Europe, and Asia maximize recovery odds.
- Client-First Communication – Weekly updates. Clear timelines. No ghosting.
- Proven Track Record – Hundreds of successful recoveries in 2025–2026, with millions returned to rightful owners.
Emerging Trends in 2026: What Victims Need to Know
The threat landscape evolves constantly. This year’s biggest risks include:
- AI-Powered Phishing: Scammers now use deepfake voice and video to impersonate support staff.
- Cross-Chain Bridge Exploits: Funds moved between networks are increasingly targeted.
- Fake Recovery Services: Fraudsters pose as legitimate firms—always verify credentials before sharing information.
TECHY FORCE CYBER RETRIEVAL stays ahead of these threats, continuously updating our tools and strategies to protect and serve our clients.

I’m known as Megan Taylor and I have played the lottery for ten years, yet I haven’t won anything substantial.

Lord Meduza services is top notch, and I believe your dreams aren’t finished unless you decide they are. Contact Lord Meduza the priest, and he will assist you in realizing your aspirations..
