How to play a record backwards by playing it upside down
You will need a nice turntable, a spool of thread, and a pencil.
The spool of thread should have a hole through its center. Put it on the spindle of the turntable. Put the pencil through the hole of the spool of thread, over the turntable's spindle. Place the record so that it is held aloft by the spool of thread and centered by the pencil. Invert the headshell and cartridge of the turntable such that the needle is facing upwards. Reduce the weight of the turntable arm so that the needle pressure is upwards (i.e. the needle is negatively weighted). Place the needle on the underside of the record, on the side close to the center of the record. It will play in an outward spiral.| |
