Materials and Methods
Self timer. Record from Goodwill
Lying on a blanket on the floor. Extended my tripod as high as it could go to get this imperfect overhead view. How the crap do people get those perfect overhead shots?! 
Do they have levitating cameras? Decrease contrast. Color balancing. Crop. Rotate.
Additional Comments
I couldn't find V's record
but then again it's not like I have a real record player to actually listen to it. I just like to hang records up on walls.

This looks like it should be an ad for some clothing store. Nice work

To get overhead shots (granted, for film, not photography, but the concept is same) I built a camera crane out of some wood and screws. It lets me get overhed shots without getting a tripod or its shadow in the shot. It does take some work to build one, but I'm sure there are alternatives to it.
The general idea is to have a camera on some kind of plane that attaches on a swivel to a long piece of wood, which is attached by a swivel to another plane that rests on a tripod. A rope runs along the whole thing, attached at holes on each piece of wood so when you pull on it, you can adjust the angle the camera makes with the ground. Umm... here are the best instuctions I could find. [link] The instructions are simpler than they sound. Hope it helps.
Or you can just have someone hold the camera while its taped to a 2 by 4.

Hahaha I love how you have the headphones connected to the hole inside the record! Didn't notice at first, but then realized the brilliance
