Music is one of the world's eight major arts, referring to an art form composed of melodic, rhythmic, or harmonious human voices or instrument sounds. The historical evolution of vinyl records_Music
Long before humans developed language, they already knew how to use variations in pitch and volume to express their thoughts and feelings. As humanity progressed and science developed, the media carrying music also quietly changed. Music carriers have gone through vinyl records, which appeared in 1931, cassette tapes (magnetic tapes) in 1963, CD discs in 1978, MP3s in 1998, and online digital music in 2004, but vinyl records and gramophones have never disappeared.
Vinyl records, also known as LPs or long plays, are stereophonic, black celluloid microgroove records. Vinyl records were the dominant music format in the 20th century because they felt more high-fidelity and were inexpensive, perfectly encompassing people of all ages. Setting aside various technical parameters, among the various music recording materials developed to date—records, tapes, CDs—the sound quality of LPs is closest to the original sound, which is the realm sought after by audiophiles. Most works by numerous prominent instrumentalists, conductors, big bands, and vocalists were first released on vinyl records. LPs, if properly preserved, have a long lifespan. Currently, vinyl records are rare items, especially famous discs from decades ago, which are even more precious.
